I'm confused. I thought the Trumpist Philosophy was kind of Reagan cubed: "I'm from the government and I'm here to help" are the most frightening words in America.

The Bidenist philosophy of “only help certain citizens depending on their politics” has certainly cast government in a glorious light.

Hey, they think the federal government can only make things worse, so let's get out of their way

You all have such dignity and small memories. 

 

Donald Trump deliberately withheld disaster aid to states he deemed politically hostile and will do so again if he wins November’s election, former White House advisers have said.

Mark Harvey, Trump’s former senior director for resilience policy, told E&E News that Trump initially refused to approve disaster aid in 2018 after deadly wildfires devastates California, historically a democratic-leaning state. The then-president only agreed after Harvey showed him that some heavily damaged counties had numerous Republican supporters.

“We went as far as looking up how many votes he got in those impacted areas … to show him these are people who voted for you,” said Harvey. “There’s no empathy for the survivors. It is all about getting your photo-op, right? Disaster theater to make him look good.”

According to E&E News, Trump’s disaster aid approval was heavily politicized in two other occasions: Hurricane Maria, which killed more than 3,000 people across Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands in 2017 and Hurricane Michael, which caused massive damage in Florida – a red state – a year later.

 

In early September 2020, wildfires tore through eastern Washington state, obliterating tens of millions of dollars of property, displacing hundreds of rural residents and killing a 1-year-old boy.

But then-President Donald Trump refused to act on Gov. Jay Inslee’s request for $37 million in federal disaster aid because of a bitter personal dispute with the Democratic governor, an investigation by POLITICO’s E&E News shows.

Trump sat on Inslee’s request for the final four months of his presidency, delaying recovery and leaving communities unsure about rebuilding because nobody knew if they would get federal help.

Trump ignored Inslee’s 73-page request even after the Federal Emergency Management Agency found during weeks of inspection that the wildfires easily met the federal damage threshold for disaster aid.

“It really was an outrageous abuse of power,” Inslee said in a recent interview with E&E News.

Trump’s campaign did not respond to E&E News’ questions.

I am not surprised that members of the extreme left would deny life saving government aid to visible supported of their opponent.

 

-The extreme left is willing to let people take assassination attempts at an opposing candidate and then dismiss it as not a big deal because they weren't successful.

-The extreme left has followers willing to tweet rants above violence, leaving the country and changing the government for weeks after an election despite insisting that questioning an election was taboo for the previous four years.

-Worst of all, the extreme left is so vindictive about the election that they would rather start a nuclear war before handing off the presidency than have a peaceful transition.

 

These people were the real threats to democracy the entire time

That's what you get from people that believe Mao's "cultural revolution" is one of history's greatest moments.

So nedboy is confronted with one of the biggest lies in the history of  journalism from Politico via its IC masters, which remains up on their site uncorrected to this very day and what do we get from it?

 

But X! Cult!

 

The self reflection post landslide is strong in this one.

X allows people to post whatever they think, even if it is mocking Elon. In the days before the election there was so much crap in support of Kamala on X I told my wife that I thought Kamala was gonna win because the other option is the entire MSM is incompetent and literally worthless. X at least allows those who disagree, how is Blue space doing in that regard?

They flagged the baybalon bee as inflammatory, so there's that.
