Southeast devastated by tornadoes, 15 dead, Trump does NOTHING.

No acknowledgment, no FEMA aid, nothing.

1. American carnage

Wow, how quickly that became a reality.

It must be so scary for these people to feel as though the government isn't going to lift a finger. It's the kind of help that citizens take for granted--as they have every right to do--until it's not there.

2. They Need To Find Out The Hard Way That They Voted Wrong.

And really do not care if he does nothing.

4. Trump voters wanted someone who never held political office-and they sure got it.

3. Help me out here.

Aren't there FEMA non-political staff with a standing policy to do stuff even if the big boss's chair is empty?

And if not, why not?

7. I don't know that. Doesn't seem to have ever worked that way.

Lord knows, Katrina was proof there wasn't anything being done on any competent level. But at least (and I cannot believe I'm saying this) Bush the Younger acknowledged the thing.

5. Hey Trump - What Happened To....

America First?

[Ilsa]

6. He's pledged aid to Alabama, Georgia, and Florida.

Don't know if he's followed through.

8. Where did you see that? I'd like to read it.

9. Reuters, Yahoo, etc:

10. Thanks. Hope he gets around to it. They need immediate help.

11. It's very telling that he doesn't know what he is suppose do

and neither do his "advisors". That wasn't part of the money-making deal. Sad, because so many who voted for him are in these southern states. And they keep defending him. Ugh.
