The title of this thread is quite ironic.

MAGA before country.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The facts emerging from Hurricane Helene’s destruction are heartrending: Businesses and homes destroyed, whole communities nearly wiped out, hundreds of lives lost, hundreds of people missing.

Yet this devastation and despair is not enough for the extremist groups, disinformation agents, hucksters and politicians who are exploiting the disaster to spread false claims and conspiracy theories about it and the government’s response.

According to former President Donald Trump, the federal government is intentionally withholding aid to Republican disaster victims. Far-right extremist groups warn on social media that officials plan to bulldoze affected communities and seize the land from residents. A tale straight from science fiction asserts that Washington used weather control technology to steer Helene toward Republican voters in order to tilt the presidential election toward Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.

Federal workers think they have power and try to intimidate. Need to be put in their place. They are failing to work for us so we have a right to be mad. They are killing people what do you expect the response to be.

They need to be better

So some PR officer not on the ground in the affected area, but from hundreds of miles away in Fayetteville, operating the 82nds X account, posts on the evening of Thur, Oct 3rd, a week after the storm hit, after lots of social media testimonials from earlier in the week that fed SAR help was virtually nonexistent.

Bitch please. You know damn well the government can't do shit proper. Are Reps trying to cash in? Yes, but the gubmint sucks at disaster relief. This is bad timing for Kamala. You ain't getting any of that $750 by sucking up to her.

Bob, MAQA yahoos are populists not conservatives. They’re all for government helping the “right” people with right meaning white, Christian male Muricans and their families.

Someone (feds likely) thwarting relief efforts. Pushing 7 million views already. Was allegedly already established with all parties involved that this wasn’t an LZ. Let’s see someone try to claim this is right wing ‘misinformation’.

Which group of clueless people are you referring to? The ones who think COVID is/was some sort of Armageddon or the ones who think it's just the flu?

It wasnt even the flu.

I would have done what a grown up would have. Let the country be free to make the choice on what's right for them as an individual. That's what a leader would do. Not grab control for political sake and run the country into the ground like Biden did.

trump was POTUS for the first 9 months of COVID. The response that you abhor started on his watch, he shares responsibility.

Good to know that we agree that he and biden aren't leaders. :coffee:

Trump was fighting all the lies about covid. The only reason it was a big deal is because they created the entire situation to harm his chances of reelection. They ruined the country and killed people doing it.

Ivermectin Lie
etc

Trusting Biden was the biggest mistake I have ever made. I will never vote for anyone remotely close to what that guy stood for again. They stole Americas democracy and the buffoons followed them while doing it. The cumrag still hasnt got ONE single vote fake, illegal or valid, yet shes the candidate. Democracy at its core right?

COVID never would have happened if Hildamort had won in 2016. It's all doneOLD's fault.

If doneOLD and his MAQA yahoos can claim that russia never would have invaded Ukraine and hamas wouldn't have terrorized Israel on October 7 if he'd been President then turnabout is fair play.

As someone who works at a Level I hospital, people are still dying of Covid. Unlike influenza, it's a year-round flow of patients from all over the state. Unlike influenza, it has more symptoms, severely affects a wider range of ages, and is more difficult to treat.

"It isn't even the flu" doesn't adequately describe the sadness of someone coming in for having trouble breathing, continue to worsen, get put on a vent, sedating them as both a rest and comfort measure (knowing they most likely don't wake up), then have them arrest on you.

And if we get them back, the virus is still there...so they arrest on you again...and again...and again (because none of them have DNR orders, because no way they can die of Covid...in 2024!). At this point all the ribs are jelly and the skin is bruised and the heart has taken a helluva beating...until it arrests one final time which we can't reverse.

And unlike the early days, families are now allowed at bedside (with precautions). If the patient is lucky (and family unlucky), the family witnesses this horror show in-person and tells us to stop doing CPR.

I love how America-centric Bobcat's world is. Just ignore that the rest of the world exists and the pandemic affected everyone.

But hey, it was "created" to harm Trump's chances. :lol:
