President Biden's Response On Maui Fire Disaster Is A 'No Comment'

 

FOX News: Biden sharply criticized after saying 'no comment' in response to death toll in Hawaii: 'Absolutely terrible' 

At least 96 people reported dead after wildfires tore through Maui President Biden was sharply criticized on Sunday after telling reporters during a Delaware beach getaway that he had "no comment" on the rising death toll in Hawaii from severe wildfires. 

"After a couple hours on the Rehoboth beach, @potus was asked about the rising death toll in Hawaii," Bloomberg's Justin Sink posted to X, formerly known as Twitter. He said that the president responded with "no comment" before he went home. 

Video later confirmed his account, showing as Biden paused briefly before responding and getting into his transportation.

Where IS our President? In the ashes of Hawaii, 96 are dead and 1,300 are missing - yet inexplicably Biden says 'No Comment' and snoozes on his beach lounger 5,000 miles away. Has he no shame? -- Maureen Callahan, Daily Mail

Trump should have flown out there or sent a team. the flame out and heads exploding of Democrats would have been priceless.

If he physically went Democrats would complain he is getting in the way. So it would be best to have small team that charters small cargo ship or planes to send truckloads f food and other aid.

What we are learning is that Democrats do not know what a rain shadow is or do not want to admit they know. the town that was level was on the leeward side of the island (i.e. in the rain shadow). It means of course the vegetation was very dry.

The warning alarms did not go off. This is odd. They are tested once a month. They say be careful of conspiracy theories. A well maintain warning system that is tested monthly that does not go off, makes a person suspicious.

Maybe Joe was unconcerned, because he knew it was the plan for the alarm not go off and people were meant to die to push an agenda?

Buildings were not prepared for fire season. Warning sirens did not go off. There may have been an arsonist. But climate change. Sure /sarc

The alarm worked pretty good when it announced an incoming attack from China....hmm, and video all over social media showing the green sky above Hawaii. But then again, there are no mean tweets coming from the white house.

DEMA speaks louder?

That is not what Democrats said when Ted Cruz was on vacation during the Texas freeze.

What is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gooser.

Ted going to Mexico at the time of a major power outage and representing his state in Congress is hardly the same as Biden not saying Oh, how bad things are for this mess. If you do not know the difference you really should stop embarrassing yourself.

Ted is not and was not governor of the Texas. ted is not and was not in charge of FEMA. Joe is in charge of FEMA.

You Russians really are bad.
