Careercow Donald J Trump - 45th/47th President of the USA, convicted felon, Epstein bro, Putin simp, serial liar, sore loser, cheat and the Chris-Chan of Presidents. THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL DEBATE THREAD.

Hey. Appalachian kiwi here. I'm angry and heartbroken beyond words. This post is going to be a disjointed mess, forewarned.

It's not hyperbole to say that Trump is making the situation worse. Thanks to the conspiracy theories that he, MTG, and Elon are spreading, people have been encouraged to "rise up" against FEMA. Retards with rifles are going to zones to play militia, misinformation is being spread like wildfire, and people can't get the help that they need. Not because FEMA money is being used for migrants, but because people are being encouraged not to seek help at all and distrust any help offered. (Thanks Loomer, you deplorable cunt)

On top of that, Elon had said that starlink is free for those affected. But when people go to sign up, he's charging them upwards of $400. Republicans voted against FEMA funds, only to demand what they rejected in the first place. People have resorted to pack animals to get around because there are no roads left. Whole mountains have been washed away, taking with them entire communities. What would take years to rebuild now will take even longer. Bodies were found hanging in tree limbs. Countless others are still missing. There's a recording circulating of a child screaming for Christ before being washed away. Trailers were brought in to store the dead. The flood waters are contaminated.

FEMA isn't after your lithium mines. Democrats can't control the weather. Bodies aren't being bulldozed to hide anything. People are calling us dumb rednecks because we didn't evacuate, but we've never had to deal with a hurricane inland like this. I've read comments by conservatives that democrats are happy that it happened to red states, but no one is happy. We find no joy where there is only death. No one is celebrating. My social media is nothing but people desperately posting pictures of missing family members. I was lucky enough that my family wasn't caught in the worst of it, but a lot of people can't say the same.

Relief efforts are being actively hampered by MAGA political games, and it's killing people--again. Say what you want about Kamala, but at least she wasn't posing for photo ops with a thumbs-up and a smile while standing in the rubble.

It honestly pisses me off to no end that people cannot see through the smoke and mirrors even when Trump’s idiocy directly affects them. Stay strong, @Sailor Swift.

Im fortunate enough that my home took only minor damage. I can't say the same for a lot of people in my area.

There's a lot of survivors who are isolated and stranded in the mountains. I saw some people getting pissed that rescuers are "turning away" pilots to get to these areas. But what's happening is that these pilots, even if they have the best intentions, are making liabilities of themselves. Because people are being told not to trust FEMA, they're taking it upon themselves to be the hero. Instead they're putting themselves in danger.

I saw a clip of a black helicopter flying low enough to scatter and fuck up supplies. My theory is that it's some numbskull who maybe wanted to help, tried to find a place to land, realized that they couldn't, so they just fucked it up for everyone.

Eta: Helene has also caused mudslides that wiped out homes and roads. People aren't just dealing with the aftermath of one natural disaster.

New articles dropped.

9 OCT 2024 Bloomberg - Kremlin Says Trump Sent Putin Covid Tests While President
Article / Archive
Excerpts:
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday that the tests had been sent, but denied the book’s claim that the two leaders had spoken by phone several times since Trump left office
Click to expand...
In a statement earlier Tuesday, the Trump campaign pushed back on the allegations, saying “none of these made up stories by Bob Woodward are true” and accusing the journalist of bias.

“President Trump gave him absolutely no access for this trash book that either belongs in the bargain bin of the fiction section of a discount bookstore or used as toilet tissue,” Steven Cheung, the Trump campaign’s communications director, wrote in a statement.

It seems as though at least some of the stories are true. Thanks for lying, Steven Cheung. What else are you lying about? What else did the book get right?


8 OCT 2024 SFGate - Trump has long blasted China's trade practices. His 'God Bless the USA' Bibles were printed there
Article / Archive
Excerpts:
Thousands of copies of Donald Trump’s “God Bless the USA” Bible were printed in a country that the former president has repeatedly accused of stealing American jobs and engaging in unfair trade practices — China.
Click to expand...
Global trade records reviewed by The Associated Press show a printing company in China’s eastern city of Hangzhou shipped close to 120,000 of the Bibles to the United States between early February and late March.
Click to expand...
The estimated value of the three separate shipments was $342,000, or less than $3 per Bible, according to databases that use customs data to track exports and imports. The minimum price for the Trump-backed Bible is $59.99, putting the potential sales revenue at about $7 million.
Click to expand...
$3 cost, $60 price. Ripping off the cult members, are we? Art of the deal, baby.

“This Bible is a reminder that the biggest thing we have to bring back in America, and to make America great again, is our religion, Trump said. Judeo-Christian values, he added, are “under attack, perhaps as never before.”
Click to expand...
No, the biggest thing to bring back to America is not religion. Stop pushing your religion onto others.

A version of the $59.99 Bible memorializes the July 13 assassination attempt on the former president in Pennsylvania. Trump’s name is on the cover above the phrase, “The Day God Intervened.” The wording appears to have been stamped on after the Bible was produced. Trump said Saturday his would-be assassin did not succeed “by the hand of providence and the grace of God.”

I spoke to my family members in western NC. They are all fine and actually live in areas that sustained little or no damage; life is fairly back to normal for them except for the fact that they can’t travel too far out of the area because of the damaged roads. They have seen military and FEMA presence where they live, but it’s more because their area is being used as a staging area rather than them needing the resources themselves. The media always shows the worst in a natural disaster, which can give people the mistaken impression that everything on the ground is anarchy.

Similar things happened at the end of Hurricane Harvey, which hit Houston really hard. There is a huge black population in Houston, including many people who were displaced after Hurricane Katrina. After the hurricane hit, far-right radical militia groups online spread rumors that the niggers were rioting all over the area, and sure enough, the Meal Team militiamen started streaming in, weapons in tow, to start shooting them in the name of defense. Of course it was all fake, but it only aggravated the situation on the ground.

There’s also a huge amount of misrepresentation about exactly what FEMA does. FEMA’s main role is in managing resources - basically, infrastructure. They do not disperse meals on streetcorners, but they do manage the people that do. They triage: they get cell phone signals up again, make sure the hospitals are up and running, coordinate search and rescue teams, bring in linemen to restore the power, create checkpoints to keep out grifters, including those militiamen. Unfortunately, for as many people as want to help, there are others who go into disaster zones for nefarious reasons. Most of the actual clean-up work is done by locals and volunteers. FEMA doesn’t cut you a check for your destroyed house, but they do give you a bit of money (it’s more now, it was only $500 under Trump) and make sure you have a hotel room to stay in if there’s one available while you file insurance claims. But the rebuilding process takes months, if not years, and a lot of people who are native to the area will never return. Their properties will be bought out by wealthier people and developers.

Hunter’s massive schlong has thrown the Earth off its axis and is creating super-hurricanes that only target MAGA. Marjorie Taylor Greene tried to warn us by showing his enormous hog to Congress but we were all too dicktimized to heed her warning.

The conspiracy theory that Democrats have a weather controlling machine and only have used it to attack Florida with a hurricane is pretty damn hilarious

Fighter pilots must be pissed that they have been put in harm's way for no reason when they could just send a hurricane to kill ISIS

The funniest shit about this hurricane machine is that somehow this powerful device was hidden from the president because Trump could've used it too. But I guess those deep state demon rats made sure to build it after he left.

I don't know why Twitch keeps recommending Trump's sad rallies for me to watch. I've never followed anything like that in my life; I only watch speed runners and challenge runners. But whatever.

I can't help but notice Trump's sad numbers on the platform. I've never caught him with 5 digits viewers, it always oscillates between 4 or 9 thousand, really fucking SAD.

I remember when he could easily get 100k on a livestream in 2016.

as someone who’s had a career in sales for over two decades, it’s wild to me people think he’s a good negotiator when the man cannot shut up for the life of him. Silence is super powerful in negotiation tactics, do you think Trump has ever let a second of silence go unfilled?
