    Is this the same Donald Trump who as US President delayed $20 billion of federal aid to Puerto Rico after thousands of people died in Hurricane Maria in 2017?

  • Sleepy Joe needs to get his paper-towel throwing arm in shape.   AFAIK, POTUS responded last week within an hour or so offering any/all necessary assistance.   Local Hawaii officia

  • Given which recent president was born there, I'm surprised Trump even acknowledges Hawaii is part of the US.

Biden's an idiot, can't even put together a few words on his own when asked about the fire on Maui. What a loser.

He's had plenty to say on the fires, he was on his way back after spending a couple of hours on the beach, riding his bike when a group of reporters who were meters away  asked him. 

 

But then if you think he's a loser and idiot I guess you should also place that label on Trump who spent the weekend golfing when Hurricane Dorian landed.

Any comment on Biden's response directly after the scale of the disaster became apparent?

  • Popular Post

The hawaii gov (or any state)  has to first submit a request for feds to get involved...it is the law.  The hawaii gov contacted the feds at shortly after midnight/.  Wed morning after the Tues night fires.  That is 6 am EST   Biden responded and approved the request within 6 hours, by noon EST.  I guess to some that is not fast enough?  

 

The Hawaii governor has had  a daily press conference every day since the  fire.  He says Biden has called him multiple times to check as to what Maui needs and has never said no to any request. 

 

The gov says Biden says he very much wants to come to Hawaii but they are still recovering bodies and trying to house thousands of locals as well as get 40 K++ tourists off the island as well as there are still some fires burning in the mountains....He he does not want to come if it in anyway interferes with all the work going on...it has been one whole week. 

 

The governor says he has told Biden that he appreciates his help but agrees that a presidential entourage would do more harm than good right now as it would be a distraction.  So while some would be all up for a photo op or perhaps stand in the midst of people who have lost friends, relatives, pets, businessess, homes et and throw them paper towels  that is not what anybody with an IQ in triple digits wants or needs.

 

I live in Hawaii and am in Hawaii right now and watch all kinds of stories and see the videos every day.  It is absolutely horrible beyond belief and dragging a bunch of trump and fox news BS trying to turn it into some kind of political circus is disgusting.

 

People who want to claim that Biden and the feds have not responded in a major way do not know what they are tallking about and have no clue as to the reality on the ground.

You know nothing about what is happening in Maui or the response from Biden.  Nothing.

Correct Trump is far worse and you've not explained the dumb sh*t to me that you claim.

Local Hawaii officials have expressed their appreciation for all that Biden has been able to muster.

 

I need to see the videotape of the question and answer, and understand the context, before I can dial up my outrage. Were several people yelling questions at the same time? 

 

From August 9, 2023

 

Statement from President Joe Biden on the Wildfires in Hawaii

 

Jill and I send our deepest condolences to the families of those who lost loved ones in the wildfires in Maui, and our prayers are with those who have seen their homes, businesses, and communities destroyed. We are grateful to the brave firefighters and first responders who continue to run toward danger, putting themselves in harm’s way to save lives.

 

I have ordered all available Federal assets on the Islands to help with response. The Hawaiian National Guard has mobilized Chinook Helicopters to help with fire suppression and search and rescue on the Island of Maui. The U.S. Coast Guard and Navy Third Fleets are supporting response and rescue efforts. The Army is providing Black Hawk Helicopters to fight the fires on the Big Island.  The Department of Transportation is working with commercial airlines to evacuate tourists from Maui, and the Department of the Interior and the United States Department of Agriculture stand ready to support post fire recovery efforts. 

 

I urge all residents to continue to follow evacuation orders, listen to the instructions of first responders and officials, and stay alert.

And what has Trump provided from his vast personal fortune.

 

Another whining completely inaccurate post to keep his MAGAtron supporters happy.

Whilst they must now be able to what a dodgy lying fruitcake he is, sadly it doesn't mean that they want to believe it.

I just watched the video and if President Biden is using a teleprompter it must be well disguised.

Give him a break, Joe has other things occupying his time like Hunter, his lovely, sweet but often misunderstood son and associated business deals that had absolutely nothing to do with Joe being POTUS.

 

Jeez, he can’t comment on everything.

Biden announced the minute the magnitude of fires he sent federal aid and everything he could
