OFFICIAL LRC President Donald Trump SECOND TERM Thread

Trump: "The trees are loaded with water. They suck that water out of the ground ... it's called management of the floor."

after Karen Bass tells Trump that reconstruction will start after hazardous waste is removed, Trump says, "what's hazardous waste? I mean, you're gonna have to define that. We're gonna through a whole series of questions on determining what's hazardous waste? I just think you have to let the people go on their site and start the process tonight."

Karen Bass is hazardous waste. Put the gloves on and remove her.

Trump: You don't need reservoirs. You have reservoirs because you are trying to hold water. You have natural water coming down along the coast, for a million years it has been coming.

Trump in California: "You don't need FEMA. You need a good state government. And when you have a problem in Los Angeles, you have your own, essentially, FEMA. You fix it yourself."

I say this in the kindest way possible.

Trump seriously needs to quadruple his secret service detail. I fear that as he travels around and makes enemies at break neck speed someone is going to pop him. he is only 4 days into this job and he is fighting with everyone including his own red states and supporters

Helene hit NC late September, which gave Biden and Harris over 3 months to help that area out and clean up the mess.
How did they do again?

what is even more hysterical on here, Trump is killing it with these locals, and has done more in 5 days than Biden did in four years and you f ing hate it. Watch and learn. He has gone from coast to coast in one day, Biden called lids at 2 PM.

all the whining bS , it is insane, you have a do'er and a do nothing you supported for four years, there is no debate. fema? where have they been? Biden was still in and did nothing here

Is that what passes for clever rhetoric in MAGA world?

Maybe you should stick with "cry more", "you lost" and "MAGA!". Those seem to be your very best.

California and these folks are caving.. you want Insurance, you have NO water

Just turned on the faucet. Water came out.

The dry grasses? You anti Trumpers see a guy who is 24 hours, Biden worked from 10-2, it surely must embarrass you. Oh dear..oh dear, do you think for a minute that Biden could do an all dayer like this? It must be so sad to argue into this?

In my decades on this orb, I have found that very simple minded people do this. Maybe you have found the same.

When presented with some news event or disaster, they immediately have a simplistic hot take that completely solves the problem. Even when experts say the problem is quite complex.

Also, they must immediately blame someone. Even if a problem is not really the type deserving of blame.

Trump is that guy. All the time.

RIF for DEI:

It must suck so bad to see an incompetent do nothing, nothing, and still argue that a guy who goes coast to coast from 6 AM to 6PM west coast time, when Biden could not make a full day

DEI? I am 67 , lived thru EEOC, lived thru this, live with the fact That Hegseth is getting in and even with his shortcomings will be able to be found, not like Austin out of contact for four days.
