Yeah really, why didn’t they move out of the way of that hurricane? There was plenty of water all around it they could have moved to, but no they had to stay right in the water where the hurricane came!

Edit: In a similar vein the shooting victims should have moved. WTF is wrong with some folks?

These people have been facing a catastophe. One that has worsened with the slow response - delayed by Trump - intentionally delayed by Trump. And he basically does this
 ya, this is bad - but let me tell you about Kartina. Now THAT was a catastrophe.

but if you look at a real catastrophe like Katrina, and you look at the tremendous hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people that died,

We were out when this popped up on my phone, and my husband shook his head and said, “What a piece of crap he is.”

My husband is too nice.

“Right from the beginning, this governor did not play politics. He didn’t play it at all. He was saying it like it was and he was giving us the highest grades,” he said.

It’s all about saying good things about Donald, that is the only fucking thing that matters to him one iota

Funny how he didn’t blame Houston or Florida for the budget. I mean those are going to be expensive clean-ups too, no?

Just what is it about PR that makes it somehow different?

And only if there was a way to bring in more revenue to neutralize the budget. I know
how about the Government drown Grover Norquist in a bathtub?

In that case Steven Mnuchin is the most apolitical person who ever lived.
