How’s it going in NC?

Not sure you’re as right as you thought.

Currently, unless you’re down on the ground, there is no way to tell what is truth or not. I do know that fema doesn’t exactly have the best track record, so I’m not sure if I would just take what they say as gospel.

I kept reading about how Harris wouldn't sit for interviews.
Yet, she sat for the 60 Minutes one, and the other guy wouldn't; breaking decades of tradition.
Perhaps, like Biden, we should question his fitness for the office at his age.

Things are bad. I've got other friends in Florida that are right in the eye of the storm that I wish like hell would have left. I tried to get them to come up and stay with me, but I guess they're as dumb and as stubborn as I am and don't want to leave the places they call home.

Now, pay attention dipshit. And while you're at it stop putting words in my mouth....

I never said things were not bad. What I said was not true (and it ABSOLUTELY IS NOT) was that FEMA was out of money, that no aid was getting in, and that there were blockades set up to keep the aid from coming in. That's what isn't true. I am CERTAIN that isn't true. Anyone that actually believes that is a fucking idiot, and anyone who's trying to convince people that those things are true is a fucking jackass. It's a lie. There are no blockades. If there are blockades, then how the hell did the people who are on twitter live and on location get down there themselves?? The people saying that are really just exploiting an opportunity to take advantage of morons, make people mad, and generate more social media buzz around themselves.

I guess I'm a little cranky today. Largely because of what I fear is about to happen. I wish the Dems didn't have such complete control of the weather.

We already know trump, so who cares? Perhaps we should question Kamala’s iq? Oh she did an interview? Oh man that’s impressive! Let’s give her a trophy.

That’s fair.


Regarding people in Florida, honestly I don’t judge people who want to stay. With that said, they should deal with whatever consequences comes from that decision. Don’t ask for a rescue if that’s what you chose to do.

I just read over, and over, and over, ad nauseam that she wouldn't sit for interviews, and lately that's all she's doing.
While he ducks them because they might be fact checked?
And Vance bitched that it was against the rules to fact check?
Why are people so gullible to buy into their lies.

Bless your heart, paul.

Great! She's sitting for interviews now with idiots from the VIEW, a sex podcast, and 60 minutes and looking really stupid in the process, which is exactly why she wasn't sitting for interviews in the first place even in her safe space.

Right now if I'm Trump or Vance I wouldn't sit for interviews with those media types either. They "fact-check" with their own lies. So why give them the platform? Did you watch the Vance/Walz debate? The moderators literally fact checked with lies.

trump and vance keep pushing the lies about storms. Unbelievable.
