    So this thread is really just example 482,443,984 of Trump supporters being parasitic hypocrites.

    Specifically; we have a moral and legal compact to each other. This includes following laws and professional responsibilities, speaking the truth, and not inciting violence. And speaking out against, condemning and opposing those who fail to honor that compact.


    Trump supporters were perfectly silent when he created an environment of near-violence and mistrust by repeatedly telling racist lies about the actions of FEMA. Both he and they failed to meet their responsibilities in our social compact.

    But NOW they rush to claim victimhood when that compact is not met for them.

    This is nothing short of outright hypocrisy. They expect standards to be met for them that they have no concern over meeting for others.

    It is parasitic because they would take from a system they don't contribute to; specifically, maintaining and holding their leaders to a degree of honesty and responsibility.

    Got it, you’re past the “it happened” and now on to the “only 1 supervisor” explanation. A simple “this should never happen and I hope that person is fired” would’ve sufficed.

    There is absolutely no excuse for what she did. That being said the original post in this thread as well as the Daily Wire article upon which it was based implied that discriminating against apparent Trump supporters was the actual policy of FEMA and implicitly the policy of the Biden Administration with respect to disaster assistance. Not true and extremely deceptive.

    LOL, good try. The article is factual. Just because you don’t like the outcome doesn’t mean you get to call it deceptive.

    I'm not the most knowledgeable on this, but from what I read it seems pretty clear that this employee of FEMA did something wrong and unacceptable.

    And now it's time for us all to move on and get over this.

    Certainly nobody should feel compelled to show any empathy to anyone offended, to express hope that this doesn't occur again, or really even to withhold support from this person who committed this unacceptable act.

    After all, I can recall an individual who told racist lies about an entire ethnic group eating pets. I can recall an individual an individual telling lies about FEMA giving lots of their money to illegal immigrants. I can even recall an individual attempting to disenfranchise 10s of millions of voters by trying to overturn an election.

    If I recall correctly, not only did supporters of that individual refrain from expressing their sympathy for the injured parties, they didn't even express that he should refrain from such conduct. In fact not only was there a total and complete lack of condemnation for these actions, they actually voted that he should be President of the United States!!

    So for this group to only now believe that they are due the honest and fair treatment they had no concern over others being denied would be.....sheer hypocrisy, correct?

    It's time to get over this.

    I’ve said there’s no excuse and Ms. Washington should be fired over this, but I do think it’s deceptive or misleading to say a FEMA “official” did this like it was a broad policy from the highest levels. This was one “emergency management specialist” and her decision affected approximately 20 homes in Lake Placid (at least as so far as it is currently reported). This description of her was mainly reserved to the title and lead sentence which I realize is editors trying to make something to draw in readers. Still think it could have been reported on better.

    Biden/Harris playbook. They wonder why it was a blowout. They just can’t understand why it happened. Keep it up and it will continue. Lol.

    Agreed. This action was conducted at the behest of Biden and Harris. It's their playbook.

    Also, they forced Donald Trump to tell the lies that FEMA gave all the money to illegal immigrants. Because that's part of their playbook also.

    Cry more. Your tears are delicious. You are now clearly in the minority. I am sure that you will continue to behave like you are being perscuted.

    Have you shaved you head yet? :D

    Underestimated the number of poorly educated voters.


    We can fix that with education.

    Agreed. Fire her. But it's interesting that Trump voters are complaining about this when Trump withheld and delayed emergency funding to entire states to punish Democratic Governors. That was wrong. This was wrong. How many of the Trump supporters criticized him when he did that?

    Sit back and watch, not as simple as avoid Trump houses for safety reasons. (Asinine to begin with but you’re twisting to defend it).

    Roving bands of armed local maga militias making ridiculous posts on social media so I wouldnt blame them for being careful. We dumped billions of money and resources into western NC recovery. There have been millions of donations by people like me to help out those out there. And many like me helped out family out that way. Any claim of them not receiving world class support is ridiculous. Sure, people lost a lot but the local news is full of stories of sacrifice and help that came to aid western NC. You outsiders making shit up can circle jerk all day long.

    Says someone who lost nothing. Typical dim response. You all wonder why America has made you the minority. Keep riding on your high horse and we will continue to keep you in your place.

    What you underestimated was the number of voters that were fed up with the woke agenda that they have been force fed over the last 16 years! That agenda is now dead. Come up with something else. For all the idiots saying it is lack of education, you all are the idiots. 1.2 billion, and you underestimated the electorate? It sounds like the dims are the ones that are stupid to me. Go cry somewhere else.

    Please show us on the doll where the "woke agenda" hurt you.

    But don't worry- soon the rapey criminal will deliver your salvation.
