What if we leave it to the GOP to do "crazy"?

"God is a concept by which we measure our pain"

I just believe in me, Natalie Portman, and me, and that's reality

If I did believe, I would believe He/She would crash down many a thunderbolt upon the heads of the deplorables.

The depths of TDS for some people is simultaneously amusing and disturbing.

Yes, trump derangement syndrome is terrible indeed. So many people turned into deranged deplorables and having complete devotion to a traitorous turd is a sad affliction.

Is it TDS when evangelical Christians say that earthquakes and wildfires are God's punishments for California's wickedness and depravity? Or equally wicked NOLA being cleansed by God with Katrina?
Or is it some other type of derangement?

I am still formulating my thoughts on this, but I'm thinking I'll end up believing that Helene is God's wrath against the MAGAts

Wait, aren't these all Trumplican states? What are their Trumplican reps doing to help them? Are they not funded enough to help their citizens that they are seeking handouts from the fed government? Seeking my tax money for helicopters that their Trumplican-led state can't supply because they are too focused on using funds to fight CRT books in schools?

Shameful.

Never mind that the REPUBLICAN State Legislature in North Carolina overrode the Governor's veto when it came to doing the bidding of the NC Homebuilders Association, to make sure that building codes WERE NOT UPDATED to those of other states that face severe weather, such as Florida, Georgia, and Louisiana.

Congratulations North Carolina GOP!

You just screwed over all of your homeowners.
They're F-ed.

North Carolina Faces the Effects After Republican Legislators Blocked Resilient Building Codes, Losing Millions in FEMA Funding | NC Gov. Cooper



"Legislative Republicans moved North Carolina backward by recklessly blocking new building codes that would require new homes to be more resilient and efficient," said Governor Roy Cooper. "As a result, it will become harder to find home insurance and we're missing out on tens of millions of dollars in federal recovery funds. That's a lose-lose for our state, particularly when storms hit."

That's okay, a storm is unlikely to hit NC anyway...

EXACTLY how trumpers have planned it all out.

Nope.

19 climate disasters this year will do that to FEMA.
With losses exceeding $1 Billion each.

Hurricane Beryl in Texas alone saw FEMA pay out $6 Billion in assistance.

So the people who live there today should suffer for things that happened 60 to 75 years ago?

Yeah, that makes perfect sense.
