If you aren’t going to call out the BS cult behavior (which does exist) then it’s no different from the red hat wearing guys on the right. It all looks the same.

You can certainly do whatever you want, but I’m just offering tips on how to be more effective in your posts. Because there is substance there, but it gets sidetracked with the anti Trump bias that you have.

Agree with you Plank... especially about Tom's focus. He seems to forget that I was fairly summarily 'put in my place' by numerous members of this forum from the right for my critiques of Trump prior to 2020... to the point where I stopped posting for a while... and yet he somehow thinks you're a Unicorn??

He reads what he has programmed himself to read.

At the end of the day, Biden's presence there makes no difference... but if you're going to speak (as Harris did) about the border and vote against bills and get others to do the same, you don't do yourself any favors by not knowing what you're talking about, yet acting as if you do.

I’ve said it before, there are plenty of good posters here who are on the left, I consider Tom to be one of them. He tries to actually research topics before posting and even if I disagree with the view I can at least respect it…

The TDS gets old though. But to each his own.

Resident Responds Emotionally to Joe Biden's Insulting Behavior During Maui Visit

Quote:Residents are speaking out after Joe Biden's tone-deaf tour of the fires that ravaged Maui, and more specifically, those living in Lahaina. As RedState reported, the president took a break from his second vacation of the month, leaving Lake Tahoe for just hours to arrive in Hawaii.

On the ground, he met with politicians and first responders while giving two brief speeches. Both of them had their lowlights, with no greater example than when Biden repeated a falsehood about a kitchen fire to joke that he almost lost his Covervette and cat. The president, who was addressing a distraught community, some of which lost their children to the flames, thought it was a good time to do his comedy routine.

The entire spectacle, short-lived as it was because the Bidens quickly hopped back on a plane to resume their vacation, was stunning, and it wasn't lost on those who live there.

RESIDENT: And then, you know, as far as bulding a "better community or "better" homes than what we had. I unforutnately didn't like that. Because, only because, like for our Kupuna and the Lahaina family and a lot of people that had lost what they had lost, there's no replacing that, there's no "better," there's no "new," there's no better than that. You know? And, you know, forgive me if I might have misunderstood him, but yeah, that didn't sit very well with my heart when he said that.

When you watch the video, the woman's voice is shakey at times, and it's clear she's not trying to make a political point. She was just geniunely perplexed how someone could come to a site of devestiation and pretend as if it were an infrastructure project. There are hundreds of people known to be dead, and estimates of those missing range from 850 to over 1000.

You don't people who have lost their homes, or worse, their loved ones, that the situation is going to lead to something "better." There is no "better" when children die and people lose the homes they've been living in for generations (the mention of Kupuna means grandparents). There is only different, and different is not something to be touted when its being forced through tragedy.

Biden's entire demeanor on the ground was absurd. It was if he didn't even recognize his purpose for being there, and that's the kindest interpretation of his behavior. I just don't understand it. No one is perfect in public, but there are basic boundaries that a president is expected to abide by. One of this is not making a joke out of a trip to visit an area that has just been completely destroyed, leading to lots of loss of life.

Something is very wrong with Joe Biden, and it continues to be impossible to ignore. Blame his old age for his lack of filter, but his uncaring aloofness was been a staple of his political career. That his handlers seem to not care about all the damage he's doing is equally concerning.

Yes, anything with Joe in it is pretty sick and twisted.

FEMA has been staying at the islands most expensive resorts and have been seen playing Golg, drinking in lounges and eating expensive meals all on tax payers expense. The search for victims goes on mostly with local first responders. Pray for those families

The very picture of mental sharpness and vigor. Biden wasn't very bright at his best and he is a long way from his best.

Some here predicted this. It was almost as if this fire might not have been an accident of nature.

Pretty flippin' epic, and spot on.


"You almost lost your cat, GFY"

I heard that rant this morning on War Room. I suspect that there's at least an entire island that would second his emotion.

...and who are you voting for president in 2024? Oh, Joe Biden of course, he cares about the people. I'll bet you anything that their vote will not change even after all this.

Some people are just plain daft. The Leftist ones that come here are just being paid, so they don't count. I'd be defending the senille old bastard if I got paid for it too.

Exactly. Joe could do more or his administration could, but it's only 4 EC Votes and they vote blue anyway.

If this was California, different story or a purple state..
