Trump would've just redrawn the path of the hurricane with his Sharpie. Such a stable genius.

[@first-i4y]

i think he said nuke it.

[@Nymeria0]

I wouldn’t be surprised if he were to send his space force to fight the hurricane 🙄

[@sh80611]

Biden will have to be reminded there’s a hurricane in the morning and Kamala will need to be briefed on the demographics of those impacted so she can figure out which affectation she needs to use in her speech

[@floriderllc6862]

Kamala will give you $750… maybe, if you are a POC.

[@amolano6830]

The genius is Biden/Harris team who have funded billions to other nations including law-breaking illegal aliens but seem to have put Americans last . Per Majorkas " Fema has run out of money".

[@HeinzLehmeier]

Perhaps Mr Trump could join the first responders? He is otherwise quick in response spreading lies, demeaning others in the most hateful way possible. Yet when it comes to practice real help he is usually on the run or producing a new line of malicious statements.

[@chumpthetraitor7331]

That coward was on the first flight leaving the state

[@suzanne9150]

Trump posted FAKE photos of him doing cleanup in mud in Georgia. WHO is stupid enough to believe his lies and nonsense?

[@independent-ts6ys]

Republicans wanna get rid of the Severe Weather Warning services. The weirdos just don't quit.

[@forevermore6558]

​@@johnconnor1847 it's right there in Project 2025. They actually put it in writing.

[@sh80611]

@@forevermore6558 what’s in writing (since we know you only listen to liberal media) is the proposal to commercialize NOAA forecasting operations. What this would do is shift the focus of the NWS more toward data collection. The concern from critics (in this case, LIBS), is that this would hinder public access through privatization of services. Nothing that can’t be resolved. Since we know you all don’t like using REAL data, I’m sure this is the crux of the concern and you’ve created fear around this caveat in the draft document.

[@reneeparker7475]

If you're in your car, when this hurricane gets closer, you're dead.

[@Acer_Maximinus]

You hear that trump supporters, get out and drive!

[@bobbyd6680]

Then why do they keep having reporters standing in the storms? Don't they know what a joke it is to stand in the storm while telling people to evacuate.

[@tedwilliams185]

Reporters live for that moment.

[@forgetful3360]

They're not standing in the way of the storm surge or in the path of a tornado, just in places that give good visuals.

[@omelborpon3159]

It is pretty irresponsible for Roker to say the first responders are "almost" on a suicide mission. The first responders are heroes for sure, but they know their job and they know how to stay safe.

[@Shining237]

Even hurricanes are political now??

[@heyitsgabe1093]

No

[@BeulahFraum]

To trump and his gullible base, yes.

[@suzanne9150]

ONLY Trump lying has made it political which endangers people who actually need help.

[@Totallygrateful777]

Ask Mike johnson to do his job

[@josephsonora3787]

Cry Louder because your tears r making us laugh at u! 😂

[@cynthiag6243]

AMEN💙

[@LearningStudent-ey4of]

He refuses to call the House back into session and instead suggested to wait until after the election. Typical Republican behavior to let Americans continue to suffer, as long as they can politicize it and campaign on it. SMH

[@joleerinehardt2676]

He has to get the Orange Ones permission first and he is going to make sure that any hesitation will be blamed on Biden .

[@floriderllc6862]

Tell Kamala to take the money back from the illegals.

[@GregorioGarcia-m8q]

What is governor Ron Disaster doing for floridian people?

[@massimookissed1023]

I have every faith that Ron will be standing on the roof of the governor's mansion, throwing banned books at Milton, proclaiming there will be no woke hurricanes in his state.

[@floriderllc6862]

He’s out there coordinating this Natural Disaster relief, you know, like he’s supposed to be doing.

[@christyritter1828]

Probably stealing more FEMA money 💰

[@robp3431]

‘It’s almost a suicide mission for first responders’.....oh boy, CB

[@Kanelle88]

I just heard a boom in the distance... I think something crashed... I'm near a rail line though... it sounds like the normal stuff that usually happens there but in this storm....?

[@first-i4y]

Trump would've just redrawn the path of the hurricane with his Sharpie. Such a stable genius. Wait, was it nuke it?

[@massimookissed1023]

It looks like this one is going to be very wet, from the standpoint of water.

FEMA is warning that they don't have the resources to block humanitarian aid for this hurricane. 😮

Too bad Cumala didn’t keep the FEMA funds for American citizens in a time of crisis…..like right now! Am I right?

[@higgs923]

You're full of it.

[@absql6850]

The way you’re in the comments saying that republicans voting against funding for FEMA and Trump wanting to gut it is a conspiracy, but also literally lie or at least refuse to understand that funds for immigration and FEMA are different piles of cash.
