Great question but Trumps Covid response to NY already gave away the game. As did his Malibu fire response. And others.
If you are a red state that has a governor that bends the knee, FEMA is there for you. If you are a blue state Trump gets to sh!t on you and your citizens
If you want to see Trump and Trumpism at it’s worst, it always comes out when he is called on to be a leader during crisis
Kamala is empathetic and much more competent and popular than Trump. The storm wouldn’t have occurred if she were president now.
Good point. Think of how many explosions there have been in Gaza, Ukraine, Israel, and Iran since Trump became president. Really hard to imagine how that could POSSIBLY be true.
And I wonder if (belligerent, probably mostly unjustified) "trade negotiations" with almost every country in the world would have failed over the last 3 months if Trump were president?
Nobody even pretends that Trump doesn’t openly Sh!t on blue states vs red states. Because Trump announces it publicly. The Trumpers celebrate it as owning the libs and claim it should teach blue states and cities to fall in line with Trump.
They tolerate the most obscene behavior of Trump that they would crucify any other President for having.
Not a cult though.
Trump is maga, maga is Trump. How is it defined? Anger and cruelty. No principles, no platform. Those change by the day. But anger and cruelty are omnipresent. And Trump personifies it every day.
Hey, let's NOT leave dishonesty, incompetence, and ignorance out of the party !!
In fact, I think that I'd put all 3 of those ahead of those two.
Let's just take that moment to imagine that the Republicans controlled Congress and a Democrat was President... and this all played out the EXACT same way, with the LONG delay to deploy FEMA, all the dead people... the dead children...
Now let's imagine how the Secretary of Homeland Security and Head of FEMA would get destroyed in hearings, live on television, as Republican Congressman grandstand.
It would be a bloodbath.
When have you given a shlt about children, like keep it real. We have no evidence any FEMA delay caused life. Starts w the State. Noem is doing awesome, along with Rubio, currently in the running for White House Apprentice season champion
Call me too nasty, but Kristi's face DOES look like it needs to avoid rain.
Then again, why should I feel bad about mocking a Mar a Lardo face (it's not like it's forced on her) who's enabling the possible destruction of our country?
A bit surprising: To my knowledge, no arch-Trumpers have tried to imitate his orangeness.
If nothing else, that would appear to offer an opportunity for JD, Lindsay, Ted and other fine, fine Senators to TRY to catch up to Rubio in Trump a** licking.

Can anyone think of a profession or workplace where an air-dropped clone of Trump wouldn't be the most reviled and mocked employee within no more than a week or two?
And I'm talking from small town sanitation crew to Fortune 500 boardroom, and everywhere in between.

The previous Sec of Homeland Security lied to America and said the southern border was secure as 12 million illegals came across the border. That POS Liar no longer has that job.
Bush the Shrub had 12-1/2 million. Trump45 poured in 11-1/2 million.
“Israel has concluded that some of Iran’s underground stockpile of near-bomb-grade enriched uranium survived American and Israeli attacks last month and may be accessible to Iranian nuclear engineers”
Trump is right here. Wind has a face only a mother could love. Wind is Icky.
Trump: “Wind is a very expensive form of energy. It's bad for your surroundings, the planes, and the birds are dying all over the place…wind is very ugly.”
Windmills are ugly, I agree.
Here's that Steven Sund (Chief U.S. Capitol Police) testimony you were inquiring about earlier, Egg Boy (EB).

You and I agree on most things in this thread. I caution against using the word "incompetence". The Trump admin doesn't dot i's and cross t's, but they are very skillfully playing their base to deeply desire a police state that controls free speech while enacting these policies. They call it free speech while crushing free speech. The call it states rights while stomping states rights. They have installed loyalists at every level of government and removed almost all oversight. They have turned political corruption at a never before seen level into background noise.
What seems like incompetence is often just distractions from the march to authoritarianism or other nefarious deeds. Or in the case of "complementing" the Liberian president on his speech, Trump was really dog whistling to his racist supporters. Though I will concede that he may not have known their official language is English.
A federal judge agreed Thursday to issue a new nationwide block against President Donald Trump’s executive order seeking to end birthright citizenship.
Daily reminder that Jeffrey Epstein did not kill himself
I think they should ask Nauta if he knows anything about the missing surveillance video.
Everywhere you look in this goddam Epstein affair, one name keeps popping up: Alan Z. Dershowitz (AKA "Dershie"). He seems to be a common link between all the actors.

Donald Trump is planning to resume military operations in Yemen. How much more evidence do you people need that our president is completely compromised by Israel?? Why are my tax dollars being wasted on this nonsense??
Here is Judge LaPlante's Order for those actually interested enough to read about what is going on. Pretty thin Order, which the appeals court and/or the Supreme Court will not like. Seems silly of Judge LaPlante to do that, because it just gives the Supreme Court a reason to send it back and to tell him to re-do it, thereby again avoiding the issue (which they will try to do at all costs).
That said, LaPlante did what the Supreme Court majority suggested in Trump v. CASA that litigants and judges do (and what Alito whined about in his weirdo concurrence), and certified a Class to proceed with the litigation on birthright citizenship. It appears that this is now a nationwide class action suit for which nationwide injunctions are suitable according to the Supreme Court.
A federal judge granted certification to a nationwide class of children born in the U.S. and issued a preliminary injunction (PI) against EO 14160, which denies birthright citizenship. The PI is stayed for 7 days to allow the...
This is Joseph Normand LaPlante, a Bush-appointed district court judge with a severe case of TDS who wants to fill the country with as many illegals as possible.
Today LaPlante decided he can unilaterally overrule the Supreme Court’s decision on nationwide injunctions. He took… pic.twitter.com/izFHabp8qs
