    Because going to soon is a simple disruption to recovery efforts. Going right after is simply grandstanding, and generally getting in the way and diverting resources.

    no, i am pointing out that other politicians did what he did, get themselves noticed in the public eye, yet he and not others are criticized, why, because of his party affiliation, pure and simple, grandstanding liberals are considered doing public good, conservatives, it's all about show.go back and read posts 2,3,4, and 5 for proof

    So tilly can’t make comments about Biden’s lack of focus without him becoming an all-out Trumper? You guys are ridiculous. You’re losing credibility by the second.

    why, because I am against all things MAGA and their scorched earth approach to dealing with any sort of opposing opinion? DeSantis is just as closed minded and vengeful as Trump. go back and you will find me saying Hillary should have been prosecuted and O investigated to see if he knew about the private server among the many posts that have caused some to label me as a right winger. Give me Romney or Kasich or a Hogan and I'm all in, but count me as a never MAGA former pub. If that makes me partisan I will gladly accept that.

    AGAIN, you are pointing out CAMPAIGN appearances....where the entire point is to get noticed in the public eye. How can you remotely compare that to an appearance in a disaster area? Because you are essentially saying Desantis is using a hurricane/loss of human life/epic destruction as a means of getting noticed in the public eye.
    Please tell me you understand the difference between a campaign appearance and this photo opp

    I can't believe any Florida (of all states) politician would ever vote against hurricane relief funds for another state. Just mind-boggling.

    It’s made you libbie. I’m afraid you’ve spent too much time on the board agreeing with the left crowd.
    Tilly is easily one of the most fair-minded posters in here and you’re calling him out? It’s a bit weird.

    The borrowing authority of 20 billion dollars in not enough for flood insurance companies? Was that a loan, or is it really just a bailout for the flood insurgence companies? I live on the top of a hill and the downtown nearby would literally have to be flooded under 50 feet of water before water hits my front door and our mortgage company makes us pay for flood insurance. Screw that...

    Just another example of how unfairly the world treats conservatives. I mean, here you have liberals criticizing a conservative for doing something and it's just not fair! I mean, you never see conservatives criticizing liberals!

    Thats pretty stupid. Maga has nothing to do with calling out Biden.

    You guys are whining about Ron D making breakfast for THIS hurricane, You guys whine about a license plate, but I'm a maga because I point out the Putus having his priorities backward in regard to which hurricane?

    Seriously, in this thread we have liberals complaining that the governor is grandstanding, but they are outraged by the Potus being called out for leaving the country.

    Trump sucked at this too. No Maga is going to tell you that.

    Gillum would’ve been so much better. Lol. People will complain no matter what. Just try to understand who they voted for. Then try to wrap your head around their bitterness that their vote didn’t win.
