Jen Psaki criticized Donald Trump for focusing on White House redecorations during a cabinet meeting held in the wake of deadly floods in Texas. The meeting took place as the death toll from the floods climbed to 109, with at least 161 people still missing. Psaki highlighted that Trump's lengthy remarks about decor overshadowed more pressing discussions about the federal response to the crisis. She referenced the saying about rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic, emphasizing the surreal prioritization of trivial matters amid a significant disaster.
Trump's cabinet meeting occurred amid the Texas flood disaster, where he discussed everything from media threats to White House decor instead of focusing on the crisis.
Psaki noted that Trump's focus on decorations during a natural disaster exemplified the saying about 'rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic'.
While the flood death toll reached 109 and many were missing, Trump emphasized his White House redecorations far more than the ongoing crisis.
Psaki highlighted that discussing decor during a time of crisis, with ongoing rescue operations, reflects the severity of mismanagement in dealing with urgent issues.
