Ok, dimwit. By this logic we shouldn't support the wildfire victims in California because many of them supported Trump or Biden. This is the dumbest logic I've ever heard. Two awful presidents are elected and all of sudden you idiots want to stop being Americans who support their fellow Americans. Do better!!


That's not my logic. I want to have FEMA support all Americans, conservative or liberal.

Trump said he wanted to decimate the "federal deep state" and get rid of FEMA, etc... That was a big part of what the election was about.

And any state where Trump won voted for FEMA to be demolished and not help anyone or any state. "Blue" states aren't getting FEMA help either, and we voted for the whole country to keep it!

All states are also going to get little to no help from CDC and NOAA as well as FEMA. Again, this what republicans voted to have happen.


We don't punish our fellow Americans because of their stupid voting decisions. Grow up! If we were to punish everyone who has made a poor voting decision since 2016, 99% of us would deserve punishment. Trump and MAGA will be dead soon. The people who were duped into supporting him will still be our fellow Americans.


Yes they were duped, but no, they don't yet believe they were duped.

Republican voters were led to believe that all the bad things would happen only to "libs" and brown people and they lapped up every single lie they were told.

Like I said before, it doesn't matter if you are conservative or liberal, or what state you live in now...FEMA is toast, mostly gone, just like Republicans in charge of project 2025 wanted.

We are all.in the same boat, a boat that doesn't have a functional FEMA (disaster response), NOAA (weather systems) or CDC (public health) any more. All of us get to experience this, not just the Republican voters in red states who wanted this for others.

They are getting reduced services just like the rest of us. So you are mad republicans get the same reduced government services as all other Americans? The very thing they voted to have happen to the whole country, including themselves?


Over 155 million people were duped into voting for two elderly unfit clowns in 2020. I still love all of those people as my fellow Americans and I'm not one to wish reduced services on the MAGA fools just because Trump is more awful than Biden. That isn't how things work in a loving society. Grow up!


Wow, you still don't get it. Biden might be old, but he didn't decimate services for tax paying Americans. They are not the same, and the fact that you continue to equate them is pretty sad.

There is no equating Trump and Biden. Biden was a terrible leader and an overall bottom 5 POTUS. Trump is an unhinged know-it-all who never had any business anywhere close to The White House. Biden is a mistake we aren't proud of. Trump is a nightmare we should be ashamed of.

See the difference pea-brain? There is no equating but the political conversation historians will have 50, 100 years from now will start with what the hell were Americans thinking when they went Trump-Biden-Trump in three consecutive elections. Awful to any degree is still awful but if it helps you to sleep at night, yes, we all realize Trump is more awful and there is no equating.

I am not sure how anyone can type this in earnest. The guy inherited COVID and an economy in the crapper, and got the US out of it and on the path to an economy that the WSJ called the "envy of the world" all while also getting new investment in American manufacturing and infrastructure. Oh, and not a single indictment or charge of ANY wrongdoing.

At least these morons are admitting Trump is a disaster. If they need to massage their own egos by saying Biden was terrrible, well I'll take it.

DP. Trump is a twice impeached convicted felon who lost an election and incited an insurrection. He’s also a bankrupt casino owner and adjudicated rapist.

This "guy" fell on his face in 2024 and handed a gift wrapped easy election victory to the worst presidential candidate in American history. The MAGA idiots and the idiots that supported the nomination of Biden in 2020 are to blame for the Trump second term. This fact takes away from anything positive you think Biden's staff may have done during his tenure. Sorry, truth hurts.

The good news is that Biden is gone forever and he's no longer an influence on the Dem Party. We have the opportunity to put the Biden mess behind us and move on to a return of competent party leadership. The GOP will be stuck with the toxic Trump influence for at least another election cycle and likely two. Advantage- Dems

I respect my fellow voters enough to respect them when they say they don't want FEMA to help them..


Asheville NC is a blue voting city with many gay and lesbian residents. You need to grow up if you think people deserve callous treatment because of where they live.

Exactly! As awful as Biden was, he was no where near the Trump level of unfitness. I can't wait to put their mess behind us!

NP bit o don’t see it this way. The establishment Dems are what propped up a Biden and got us where we are now. I don’t have much hope unless and until they are willing to own up to their missteps and support candidates with populist appeal.

If we were to punish everyone who has made a poor voting decision since 2016, 99% of us would deserve punishment. Trump and MAGA will be dead soon. The people who were duped into supporting him will still be our fellow Americans.


Yes they were duped, but no, they don't yet believe they were duped.

Republican voters were led to believe that all the bad things would happen only to "libs" and brown people and they lapped up every single lie they were told.

Like I said before, it doesn't matter if you are conservative or liberal, or what state you live in now...FEMA is toast, mostly gone, just like Republicans in charge of project 2025 wanted.

We are all.in the same boat, a boat that doesn't have a functional FEMA (disaster response), NOAA (weather systems) or CDC (public health) any more. All of us get to experience this, not just the Republican voters in red states who wanted this for others.

They are getting reduced services just like the rest of us. So you are mad republicans get the same reduced government services as all other Americans? The very thing they voted to have happen to the whole country, including themselves?


Over 155 million people were duped into voting for two elderly unfit clowns in 2020. I still love all of those people as my fellow Americans and I'm not one to wish reduced services on the MAGA fools just because Trump is more awful than Biden. That isn't how things work in a loving society. Grow up!


Wow, you still don't get it. Biden might be old, but he didn't decimate services for tax paying Americans. They are not the same, and the fact that you continue to equate them is pretty sad.


There is no equating Trump and Biden. Biden was a terrible leader and an overall bottom 5 POTUS. Trump is an unhinged know-it-all who never had any business anywhere close to The White House. Biden is a mistake we aren't proud of. Trump is a nightmare we should be ashamed of.

See the difference pea-brain? There is no equating but the political conversation historians will have 50, 100 years from now will start with what the hell were Americans thinking when they went Trump-Biden-Trump in three consecutive elections. Awful to any degree is still awful but if it helps you to sleep at night, yes, we all realize Trump is more awful and there is no equating.


I am not sure how anyone can type this in earnest. The guy inherited COVID and an economy in the crapper, and got the US out of it and on the path to an economy that the WSJ called the "envy of the world" all while also getting new investment in American manufacturing and infrastructure. Oh, and not a single indictment or charge of ANY wrongdoing.


This "guy" fell on his face in 2024 and handed a gift wrapped easy election victory to the worst presidential candidate in American history. The MAGA idiots and the idiots that supported the nomination of Biden in 2020 are to blame for the Trump second term. This fact takes away from anything positive you think Biden's staff may have done during his tenure. Sorry, truth hurts.

The good news is that Biden is gone forever and he's no longer an influence on the Dem Party. We have the opportunity to put the Biden mess behind us and move on to a return of competent party leadership. The GOP will be stuck with the toxic Trump influence for at least another election cycle and likely two. Advantage- Dems


NP bit o don’t see it this way. The establishment Dems are what propped up a Biden and got us where we are now. I don’t have much hope unless and until they are willing to own up to their missteps and support candidates with populist appeal.


Like Trump

Ok, dimwit. By this logic we shouldn't support the wildfire victims in California because many of them supported Trump or Biden. This is the dumbest logic I've ever heard. Two awful presidents are elected and all of sudden you idiots want to stop being Americans who support their fellow Americans. Do better!!


That's not my logic. I want to have FEMA support all Americans, conservative or liberal.

Trump said he wanted to decimate the "federal deep state" and get rid of FEMA, etc... That was a big part of what the election was about.

And any state where Trump won voted for FEMA to be demolished and not help anyone or any state. "Blue" states aren't getting FEMA help either, and we voted for the whole country to keep it!

All states are also going to get little to no help from CDC and NOAA as well as FEMA. Again, this what republicans voted to have happen.

Dems were in the same boat in 2017. We were asking how we became so awful that we could lose to Trump. We felt hopeless. And then Trump's 1st term played out. By the time 2020 rolled around, Dems were handed an easy POTUS election victory thanks to Trump's unpopularity. Here we are in 2025 and Dems are whining about their demise and how there is no future while at the same time Trump's popularity is tanking just like it did during his first term. The GOP will be hopeless by 2028 thanks to the Trump stain.

What will the Dems do with that easy victory in 2028? Elect a legitimate two POTUS like we used to or will we elect a another clown who will gift The White House back to Trump's ignorant posse in 2032?

Wash, rinse, repeat or learn from our mistakes?

I respect my fellow voters enough to respect them when they say they don't want FEMA to help them..


Asheville NC is a blue voting city with many gay and lesbian residents. You need to grow up if you think people deserve callous treatment because of where they live.

+1


They don't.

This is the treatment the WHOLE UNITED STATES is going to get for the next four+ years because slightly over third of population voted for Project 2025.

The Senile Presidency was a success. It may have made the public trust Democrats less, but it did let us save the world.

At least these morons are admitting Trump is a disaster. If they need to massage their own egos by saying Biden was terrrible, well I'll take it.


Don’t forget — also Kamala laughed funny. So they basically had no choice but to vote for Trump. 🙄
