Oh look - a grotesquely incompetent and unqualified Trump appointee. I haven't seen one of those in... an hour or so. Maybe even an hour and a half.
Careful, we can't complain or they'll replace them with someone even more incompetent!
I'm not confident that they're competent enough to find anyone more incompetent than they are.
Are you taking about the average American voter?
But he's a total MAGA loyalist, and we all know that's what's really important in a natural disaster. Much better to have a virtuosically incompetent MAGA in charge, than an experienced, trained, educated Emergency Response Professional, who might be a {GASP!} Democrat.
Then you haven't been paying attention.
“The Heritage guys are telling me we’re putting the gays in concentration camps soon, so that should end the hurricanes.”
How is this surprising? Being competent is disqualifying in Trumps cabinet. Only the dumbest, and dullest.
Maybe he surrounds himself with stupid people in the hopes he might feel less dumb.
Considering he demands people clap when he enters a room, i don't doubt it.
Really? That's some very small man vibes right there.
He believes he’s basically a god. It’s incapable for him to feel inferior. Which is why he’s actually one of the dumbest motherfuckers alive.
He climbed that first peak in the dunning Kruger curve and refused to move any further
Though that would probably incorrectly imply he once attempted to learn something
Don't laugh at this, it makes you look condescending to scared people who aren't experts in this stuff which is exactly the intended outcome.
This is a naked threat to science, meet it with fury.
Hurricanes can do far worse than kill, their impact can level communities leaving layers and layers of trauma, and we have a solemn duty to treat their threat as serious as any other.
Listen to scientists!
Those who are effected most by hurricanes....voted for this.
I voted for Harris because I don't care I just want people to be ok even when they hate me shrugs.
The head is probably one of those people that think hurricanes appear randomly throughout the year similar to tornadoes or earthquakes.
And perhaps a stern talking to by the orange person and waving a sharpie around a photo can persuade them to deviate from their path.
As someone who lives in the Midwest, let me tell you, there absolutely IS a tornado season. We're actually in the tail end of it right now.
Very technically there are two (at least down here in Dixie Alley). The two months with the most tornadoes are April and January.
Up here in Minnesota it's roughly March-June, but when I lived in Oklahoma for a little while it seemed like it was Mid Summer
Is he even American or some dirty immigren who come to took err jerbs?
The season is usually around September-November, when most vegetation has dried up or burned, wind and rain takes up speed... Etc. hurricanes just so happen to form at the Gulfstreams into the Ocean.
