Now the first lady showing up in 4" heels in all designer clothes seemed out of place.
She was there to provide relief handjobs to those in need.
The long term federal employees and the states are doing their jobs. Trump isn't doing shit just the bare minimum. Staff putting maps in front of him to make it look like he knows what's going on. He spends more time hawking his bullshit products and comparing crowd size then he spends with victims which is zero.Not this time though, because President Trump and the State officials did their jobs.
As long as it's Democrats and the left ripping off the real people in need and directing the money to their political allies and cronies you're happy as a pig in shit with it. I'm not.The long term federal employees and the states are doing their jobs. Trump isn't doing shit just the bare minimum.

BTW - You left out some info in last post
In 2012, President Obama requested a $60.4 billion supplemental funding bill from Congress, ostensibly to fund reconstruction efforts in the parts of the country most impacted by Hurricane Sandy.
However, that’s not what Congress gave him
Who controlled Congress then? Different deplorables, same story.

The Democrat offered up real aid and the GOP loaded it up.As long as it's Democrats and the left ripping off the real people in need and directing the money to their political allies and cronies you're happy as a pig in shit with it. I'm not.

Such a terrible tragedy. It is good to see people there pulling together to help each other. A lot of good stories of that going around. It is sad to see people taking advantage of it though, and looting for no other purpose but to do bad. Sadly, there are always people who do that.

Of course not. He doesn't care about anyone except himself and his kids.So Trump went down to Texas to get fluffed by Abbott and left. Didn't see a single victim of the hurricane.
Looting is for the purposes of survival & self enrichment. I remember a helicopter pic of a guy during Katrina in waste deep water with a bag of groceries he'd supposedly "looted". I mean, WTF? Really? How else can he get groceries, anyway? There's always the other side of it, too, where rippers are in it for profit, like capitalists.
I know he can't wait for the circular congratulation party when the damn thing is over with. So far nothing good he has promised has transpired in 8 months, only the things that piss off liberals have become executive edicts and law. He may be in for a long wait. For the people of southeast Texas I hope he's right and successful, but I won't be holding my breath.So Trump went down to Texas to get fluffed by Abbott and left.

Trump should distract the public from his Mar-a-Lago resort allowing reporters to watch him each large chocolate cakes with two or more scoops of ice cream while sitting on a chair like its a toilet.I know he can't wait for the circular congratulation party when the damn thing is over with.

That's awesome. Cheers to him.Unrelated to Trump but a woman in Beaumont Texas reached out desperate for help and accidentally contacted city officials in Beaumont Alberta. She got the help she needed anyway.

Do you really believe that is the only thing that is going on? Looting to survive? Do you believe that people have the right to break into someone else's house to loot and steal? Do you not think that will make that family have a harder time getting back on their feet? Do you think food is the only thing that they are looting? Do you think that electronic, and such are for the "purpose of survival"? You may want to check what is actually happening.
hail satan
Here you go you ignorant hole.

"
However, that’s not what Congress gave him, or what he signed. Instead, the bill was loaded up with earmarks and pork barrel spending, so much so that only around half of the bill ended up actually being for Sandy relief."
That's right, only about 1/2 the money from that Sandy Bill went to help the victims of Sandy. Just another example of Democrats and liberals stealing money from Americans to fund their special interests and pay off their political allies at the expense of victims of disasters.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...cane-sandy-bill-had-nothing-to-do-with-sandy/Says some blog written by a guy who works for Jim Demint trying to lay cover for Cruz.
So what's the point? Texas shouldn't even ask for any money, as this guy just goes on about how govt is awful and charities are awesome. Good. Have Cruz then say, thanks but no thanks, the ppl of Texas and the Red Cross have it covered.
Problem is this philosophy assumes prima facie that all pork is bad.
From that list: I don't care about $2 mil for a museum roof out of $60B, or even $80 mil for Amtrack which is always badly underfunded. The holy jihad on pork is your side's thing, and it's fucking up Congress.
Big bills require horse trading. I'm not from Texas. I want to help out, but we also need some traction on getting money to fix some bridges and numerous other things around here that have been left undone. I hope my Senators and Congress critters can do their magic for their people too and we all walk away with something. Don't want to play? Well we're not the dipshits who built on a floodplain and decided not to have zoning laws...
What I wouldn't accept is just doing a Cruz; force a slow down on the aid package to stranded people just so he can grab the spotlight for some grandstanding on the hopes he parlays his show of fiscal concern into a winning presidential bid. Fuck off with your lies Lyin Ted.
