    His simple framework of “if it’s a bad thing, it’s 10x worse now vs the past so you need me in charge” that he has used forever (including 'American Carnage" in his acceptance speech) really fails when it comes to weather.

    First, no normal human is blaming the Biden admin for the strength of hurricanes these days.

    Second, if hurricanes are getting worse that implies climate change is real and we need a Democrat in charge to try to stop it.

      glances at Biden’s Senatorial record on climate change

      It’s a goddamn tragedy that a plan that stupid actually works on so many people.

        Windmills?

        It seems to me that you aren’t well-versed in adventures—they are giants; and if you’re afraid, get away from here and start praying while I go into fierce and unequal battle with them!

    What? How can you forget after the whole sharpie thing? That was kind of hilarious. Just draw an arrow on map and redirect Milton towards some immigrants or something buddy. Your succubus hag seems to think weather control is possible and you think highly of your own abilities - give it a try!

      The best part about the “they control the weather” theory is that they are posting an old military patent on social media. What’s funny about it is that, American patent law being what it is, even if it was real it would prove nothing. I could file a patent for a working dragon; that doesn’t mean I have access to a fucking dragon. It just means I have ownership of any dragons that work like the patent I submitted. A patent is only to show ownership of an idea and nothing more.

        With military patents, it basically has to reach the “there is absolutely not a snowball’s chance in hell this will work and you’re only going to use this to con people” level to be denied a patent, and even then…

      He wasn’t aiming the hurricane, he was trying to make himself retroactively correct because he didn’t know the states names.

    Because he’s deaf and can’t read. He got a hurricane briefing once and tried to correct the drawing with his personal hopes and dreams. That was the last time they gave him a hurricane brief.

    People who support this dude are weird for not seeing he’s not fit for office. He should step down and let someone younger go, like Biden did. He has way too much ego to admit he lost an election, nevermind stepping down, but it would be the play

      He also flew to the Panama City Beach area after Hurricane Michael in 2018 (Category 5, I was working there at the time) and Trump only wanted to hang out with the GOP Mayor charged with felonies charges for misuse and stealing hurricane relief funds. (Lynn Haven). She just finished court cases… 1 month prison

      wipe tear from your eye

      I should give myself a cheat day and do the things internally that would allow me to be a trump supporter. I’m not sure what that is. I guess allow myself some racism, sexism, somehow christianity, selfishness, full confidence in any thought that goes through my head. I’m getting nauseous thinking about it.

      Edit: Like what about Christiany jives with this guy? I know it’s probably something you had to grow up with to understand. I did grow up in a Christian family though. Probably werent religious enough? Seriously, thinking about this stuff makes me so uncomfortable. Like you want to punch 10000 people immediately but know that’s impossible.

    When was that video originally taken? Was this during his presidency? I remember him asking why we couldn’t nuke hurricanes but I don’t remember him saying he’s never heard of a category 5 hurricane lol.
