Small Government and Individual Responsibility, puh-raise JEE-zuz-ah!
The Overwhelmingly Republican Texas Lawmakers? Those Lawmakers? Which makes it the DEMOCRATS Fault they Didn't pass ANYTHING!
It's the lone star state...
Outta 5 possible
Only because you can't select zero
And Abbot is still crying for help. Of course Donny is going to help a red state.
I wouldn’t be so sure. Recently he brushed off Arkansas and one other state I thought.
Trump signed of on disaster relief for Texas yesterday morning.
President Donald Trump announced Sunday that he “signed a Major Disaster Declaration” for relief for Kerr County in Texas, as the region deals with heavy rains and extreme flooding that have killed dozens.
Of course he's going to help a red state. It will be another story when it's a blue state. Just like the last time.
Mark Harvey, who was Trump’s senior director for resilience policy on the National Security Council staff, told E&E News on Wednesday that Trump initially refused to approve disaster aid for California after deadly wildfires in 2018 because of the state’s Democratic leanings.
But Harvey said Trump changed his mind after Harvey pulled voting results to show him that heavily damaged Orange County, California, had more Trump supporters than the entire state of Iowa.
What a shithole
Maybe next time around?
Lived here nearly 40 years. No they won't
How could the Dems allow them to not pass it?
/s
I at least gotta give him credit for going out with first responders as part of the searches. Cruz has probably booked a last minute trip to Disneyland or something.
Nope. He's not a first responder, is he? If not, then it's pure PR. He could just as easily go out there after the recovery efforts are done when he wouldn't be in the way. Going out with the first responders means that he's taking up space and resources that could otherwise be used to help people in need.
Also...
“I can tell you in hindsight, watching what it takes to deal with a disaster like this, my vote would probably be different now,” said Virdell, a freshman GOP lawmaker from Brady.
Probably. First hand view of the death and damage and he might, change his mind. Fuck him.
Since there was no flood warning system... WTF would they allow a camp for children to continue business on a fucking flood plain?????
So whose hands is the blood on?
