[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think so. The river rose higher and fast than it ever had before. The camps were in the middle of getting campers to safety when the water reached the cabins.

I very much disagree with my fellow democrats/liberals who are using this as political fodder. We certainly should learn from it and will, but it is not Trump's fault.[/quote]

"The River rose higher and faster than it ever had before".  Trump is deliberately trying to not have us understand why that happened and what can be done about it and the people that voted for him are behind that strategy.[/quote]

I don't understand your point.

But then, I am deliberately not listening to any elected officials when it comes to this situation. I am hearing plenty from first hand accounts along with my own experiences there. [/quote]

What is happening with the climate?.  Why are there so many unprecedented catastrophic weather events coming more frequently and more violently?

The point is I want to invest in understanding it. I want explore prevention and mitigation strategies.  Nothing is engineered for this level of precipitation.  The point is Trump voters do not want to invest in this.   He dodged anything that has the word climate in it for God's sake.

You're entitled to stick your head in the sand and I'm entitled to want to understand what is going on.[/quote]
