psydude posted:Houston didn't order an evacuation because they were worried about the highways getting jammed. So 2 million people are taking a bath. Taking a bath is putting it mildly, more like getting waterboarded by Mother Nature. Some of the models suggest the storm may head back out to sea, strengthen and then make another landfall by Houston. The damage from this storm could truly be catastrophic.

Excuse me, but from Trump's twitter, I gather that everything is going well, the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT is working in perfect harmony with the local and state governments, stay safe and MAGA and all that.

Looks like everyone was most concerned about Corpus Christi, but Houston is going to be the city that gets absolutely hosed. While Donnie is telling people to buy Sheriff Clarke's book  KHOU Houston is now under full evac and their coverage is now just one reporter. https://twitter.com/KHOUBlake11/status/901804815633846273

I wonder if some trump supporter in Texas whose entire first floor of their house is under water is seeing Trump talking about David Clarke's book and the border wall thinking "hmmm maybe this guy is an rear end in a top hat?" Probably not.

That would mean admitting they were wrong. Not gonna happen. They'll latch onto his "We've unleashed the full might of the federal government, everything's going great! I'm doing lots of big boy stuff to help everyone!" tweets and live the rest of their lives thinking the bad stuff was Obama's fault because the deep state hired crisis actors to sabotage Trump's greatness and let the commie muslims in. As their lungs fill with water, their final choked out gasp will be "MAGA!". They have chosen their reality and they will not leave it.

I don't know what Trump could have done different as far as preparing for the hurricane (staff maybe?) but I do know that he should probably just shut the gently caress up on twitter.

Yeah, that definitely, but if you haven't read that article on the biggest nuclear threat coming from the White House, go have a look at it. I have no trouble believing that any agency involved in the disaster relief is in a similar state of being-fuckedness as the Department of Energy was/is. Trump certainly didn't cause a hurricane LIKE OBAMA DID, but with the way he's been piping it up as the worst hurricane in history and UNPRECEDENTED and NEVER SEEN BEFORE and whatever bigly words he uses, it's looking pretty strong like they/he is very well aware of how lovely this could end up.

Declare the emergency further in advance, like when his President's Daily Brief would have been saying "this is loving bad, get your poo poo together now" instead of being a manbaby pisschild that only reacts to stimuli when he finally saw it on Fox? Have FEMA staged and ready to go with supplies and evacuation/rescue equipment? Not tell people "hey good luck, you'll be fine!" and instead say "Seriously, get the gently caress out and be prepared"? Have competent people in place looking to do their job, not loot the coffers and strip the copper out of the walls while stroking donnie's dick?

FEMA like many federal agencies is running headless and is missing basically any appointed position because Trump hasn't nominated anyone. He didn't mobilize any recovery effort in advance despite the multi day warnings of "this is going to be bad."

i'm sure there's a lot he could have done from an actual "do something" standpoint. even being from florida and seeing hurricanes my whole life i don't know what goes into preparation from the government side of things. but i am 100% certain that he just needs to shut. the. gently caress. up. i usually don't get mad at his dumb twitter bullshit but this morning's tweet have made me loving furious.
