Playing Politics in Emergency Situations

I know to some, Trump can do no wrong and you'll try to find equivalents from prior presidents or blame media bias because your man can do no wrong...or else pride (or something else) gets in the way.

This is the stuff of third world dictatorship material, refusing to help out an emergency situation.

Such is the case where our irascible, irremediable, incompetent, ignorant, impudent, infantile 'Commander in Chief' has decided that he will threaten to pull Federal Aid from combating wildfires in California.

People are fleeing their homes on short notice, able to take very little with them.

Here we find little Donald wanting to play politics in the midst of an emergency situation.

If California doesn't have it together as he claims, then is this the time to play politics?

If I were like Sean Hannity and just wanting to make extensions of what people are thinking without having proof....

It would seem to me like he is trying to get revenge on 'political enemies' and allowing a state inside his borders to burn because they went for Hillary.

Now I wouldn't actually make that argument, but that is the kind of garbage that Hannity spews for three hours albeit in another direction.

Still -- this tyrant has to go! It's too bad your pride (or something else within you) cannot let you see how terrible this third world dictator really is...and you'll circle the wagons to find some kind of equivocation.

But it's a fair and solid argument that Trump is playing politics with this situation.

He can't just do something presidential....every issue has to be grandiose and tweeted about... "See how good I am' or 'See how terrible they are..''

He's toying with the lives of his own people and toying with their property and person.

According to several fire ecologist,"Fires have always occurred and will always continue to occur, fire is part of California’s ecosystem."

An international group of scientists warned in a 2014 review in the journal Nature, “Unless people view and plan for fire as an inevitable and natural process, it will continue to have serious consequences for both social and ecological systems.”

Bluangel- what do Pelosi and Schiff have to do with Trump threatening to withhold disaster aid to California?

Do you think Trump should tell Pelosi and Schiff, "I know Californians need this aid, I need a favor though......"

Should they shirk their constitutional duty and drop the impeachment inquiry so the residents of California can get the help they need?

You know that if Trump had the support of CA he would have never made such an outrageous threat.

No one is blaming Trump for the fires, but he is supposed to help protect all Americans.

As much nonsense as he puts up with all day everyday. and from twits like Devin Newsom, im sorry i dont care what he says back. Decorum was tossed out the door 11 hours after he won when the Democrats officially began their witch hunt. Im sick of mush mouth Republicans who take shit from these leftists and just bow their head and stroll away. Evrtytime he tells one of them to F Off i like him more, because more than anything they cant stand that he doesnt crumble before them. Either Bush would have buckled by now facing what Trump deals with every single day.
We can always find Republicans that will fuss at Trump because hes uncouth as hell sometimes, i dont know one single Democrat yappin about this bug eyed jackal Shiff, do any of you??? Of course not.

He is trying to help Californians, but liberals will cut their noses off despite their face due to ignorance.

Homelessness, pollution, water quality, mismanagement and all Newsom can do, because his public negatives are doubling, is whine a cry over the big bad Trump picking on him because his leadership is being properly criticized.

Trump should have noticed that Newsom was running scared, facing the wrath of angry voters over the state's mismanaged forestry (which forbids the clearing of brush...so that wildfires can do it, the greenie mandates, which leave no cash for the power companies to upgrade their fire-igniting equipment; and its general mismanagement of California priorities and resources. The result of that whole ugly leftist mess has led to the statewide fires that have destroyed homes and left millions without electricity, living the socialist Venezuela lifestyle, and not happy with Newsom about it.

Wally and Blu, I'm so conservative I make you guys look like Pelosi and Warren.

However, I understand the difference between politics and humanity. You don't threaten to cut off aid to a state just because you lost it. You don't tell people, "oh well, they asked for it".

If he wants to call Nancy a skank, I won't say a word. They are both politicians and they sign on to take verbal bullets from the opposition.

I wonder how you would feel if he threatened to cut off aid to Illinois.

You can hate the opposition. I hate some of them. But when you get down to trashing the people of California, you're quite simply a horse's ass.

Gotta love this post...

If you make Wally and Blu look like Pelosi and Warren...I shudder to think where that leaves me.

Trump is not a conservative to begin with. It's amazing how his base latches on to him.

People can do wrong....and that's why I can't waste time with MSDNC or FAUXnews... I don't want to be in that place either.

We need to demand that our leaders are public servants and call them out when they are not.

Good for you Opi... as patronizing as it probably sounds...good for you anyway.

I'm sure there's plenty of mismanagement that can be exposed when there's a hurricane in Florida or even floods along the Mississippi.

The point is in an emergency...you don't eff with peoples' property and person... Get the situation contained....

Then later.....if you feel there is mismanagement, then it's time to talk...

Until then...don't say you're going to just let the place burn.

Again, that's the stuff of two-bit dictators from the third world....or a normal day for Trump.

He was ticked at Newsom and made a threat which he will not carry out. He sees it as a policy issue and that the Democrats bring some of this on themselves, which in this case they do. Let the Sierra Club sorts fund some of that mess they helped create. As for as you being more conservative than me, i highly doubt that. Im so far right i sometimes thought Reagan was a Communist. I think you lean, maybe even tilt to being a con, but you are hardly as hard core as you think you are. None of us will live long enough to hear me trash Trump and get an atta boy from the lefties in here. The reason is simple, that very scenario for the other side to level any kind of criticism of (heaven forbid) Barrack Hussein Obama is not even possible. Once the lefties in here started calling everyone not kissing Obamas ass a racist, that pretty much ended any chance that i would ever give those people even the slightest itsy bit of gratification.
You do as wish Opie, but if you think you are so conservative that you can drive me into being Fake Indian like, you better call the police because someone must be spiking your ovaltine with LSD.

If he didnt defend himself, nobody would. People are afraid to wear a Trump ball cap figuring some jackal will attack them. You dont see conservatives go into restaurants and create a scene where lefties are having dinner. They will show a half a dozen 75 year old klansman in a parking lot every 4 months and half of them are probably Democrat plants. Its a joke what these people get away with.
Blu, we will always have half ass Republicans ready willing and able to point out everytime Trump gets a tad too boisterous in defending himself. Too many John McCains i suppose. Republicans are as a group the weakest bunch of whiney bitches on the planet, its no wonder the Democrats run roughshod. In some ways and on some days i hope the Democrats do win so i can sit back and laugh at the destruction, maybe its what we deserve.

Wally and Blu, I'm so conservative I make you guys look like Pelosi and Warren.

The most ridiculous and blatantly false statement i have ever seen on here. You are as conservative as Elizabeth Warren is native American. You are the biggest fan of Hagnauer, most other GC liberals and you constantly deride Prenzler and Adler, especially on the flood issue Adler is more knowledgeable than the 30 clowns that he dismissed total. Have you seen all the sink holes around GC lately? They are everywhere. That is collapsed sewers, which the city has neglected for decades, while at the same time padding their multiple pensions and being just overall lazy. Ironically, the two Democrats you criticize most, Brenda Whitaker and the late Helen Hawkins, have received your most critical comments.

You also talk about how bad socialism is but yet you fully support the main instrument in it's installation, public schooling.

Dicard, you obviously have not kept up with many of my posts.

I've blasted Dunstan in the past every bit as much as I have Prenzler. I've argued with a former poster, Mr. Chris, who as I understand it is a strong democrat. I called Obama the weakest President on foreign policy since Jimmy Carter. I'm pro-life and anti abortion and one of the biggest advocates for the 2nd amendment you'll ever meet.

So your claim is easily dismissed.

You on the other hand bash Hagnauer constantly and you're so far Prenzler's rear end you probably are one of his stooges. Nobody in my household voted for Ed last time. Nobody in my house will vote for any extreme left, liberal at the county, state or federal level.

My support of schools is an old time conservative and democratic threshold. In this country both parties used to appreciate a strong education be it form public, private or parochial schools. I oppose free college for all because of the expense and the fact that it's not equal to all.

I just don't think people understand local politics.

They want to take that leap and bunch them all in with one side of people.

At the end of the day, we need someone to fix the streets, to put the bad guys in jail, to fight the fires and so on and so forth.

I do not owe most of these jackwagons explanations and neither do you.

I think you probably are the real conservative here, because you're actually smart enough to know that Trump is not a conservative.

You know how to weigh people based on who they are and not give into the temptation to lump them in with a total lot of people.

The reactionary side of the right wing is intent on lumping people, labeling them and dividing them....to the point of throwing Mayor Hagnauer in with Nancy Pelosi.

All it does, day in and day out, is demonstrate their level of ignorance about the situation and ignorance rules at the ballot box.

Madison County probably needed some Republicans to break up a few comfort zones to keep people accountable. But, maybe in the horizon, some new Democrats to break an eventual 'good ole boys' club again.

These low-information voters also accuse me of many things that are not true.

But I just don't owe them an explanation...and neither do you.

Picard, i think Opie is a conservative on the national scene most of the time, but he isnt as dug in as some, including myself. He does feel the need to trash Trump from time to time and i cant help but to think some of it is to amuse the lefties on this site, but maybe not. Like evry conservative on here he has been branded a racist in the past by pink skinned liberals yet has somehow been able to get past that. Once that line was crossed with me, i lost what little effort i was willing to exert to get along with any of them. Opie is more forgiving i guess, and perhaps that is best. To be fair Opie is quite a bit more conservative than the Fake Indian so on a 1 to 10 scale with a 10 being very conservative i have to give Opie an 8, which is what a B+? He also at times will get his point across with humor which is always welcomed.
On the local scene, i think you may be on to something Picard, as sometimes i think Opie has an Opie double who is all over the place concerning local politics. Opie says he has got after Dunstan and maybe he has, just i have never seen it, but to be fair he hasnt really crucified Prenzler as much as he has never said anything good about him that i can recall. He seldom misses a chance to go after Mr. Adler and he wasnt always Helens biggest fan, although like all of us he was sad to see her pass on. His arguments with Chris must have been pretty tame, but Chris is pretty laid back on this forum so maybe it just seemed like an argument.
To summarize, no Opie does not make Blu and i look like Warren and Pelosi, but i think he was just talking trash on that and it was just a line to get his point across. 20% of the time he does annoy the hell out of me, but the other 80% i enjoy him being on this site.
Picard, dont be a stranger

Just because he doesn't reside in that damp, dark, dank place --- in the land where Trump can do no wrong.

I think Opie is more frustrated that Trump trashes himself.

But then again, even to allow for people to see Trump make an ass of himself with his own words is still a conspiracy by Soros and the MSM....

Because Trump can do no wrong....and even if you think otherwise...you must be trashing him.
