[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reporter: Do you think the federal government needs to hire back any of the meteorologists who were fired?

Trump: I would think not. This was a thing that happened in seconds. No one expected it. Nobody saw it. Very talented people are there, they didn’t see it[/quote]

None of this is true, Trump is lying, understaffing and underresourcing agencies, and getting people killed.[/quote]

And the same is happening with other science and data based agencies that keep Americans safe - EPA, NIH, and so on.  Trump and the Republicans act like it's all just a game, doesn't matter to gut agencies as long as they make their deranged megadonors rich and happy. [/quote]

And apparently that makes America great again.

Let's not invest anything in researching threats or in systems to warn about threats or even in resources to potentially move away from threats.  Let's just ignore it all and be sitting ducks and call it great.[/quote]
