A storm is brewing from Mar-a-Lago – Orange County Register

To live in a world, the crazy one that is ours, where employees of a federal agency charged with providing relief to the victims of a devastating hurricane have their lives threatened by armed fellow believers, egged on by an actual elected official , that one major political party is creating the bad weather to be mean to them is despair.

And when you see how the presidential candidate of the other major party does not tell his supporters to get real, but rather incites the crazies by also discrediting their aid efforts, you see that the despair has shrunk into blocks.

That candidate was given a chance to at least act sane when asked whether it was a good idea to criticize hurricane responders after the Federal Emergency Management Agency was forced to suspend work in the Carolinas due to militia threats.

The candidate responded by repeating the simple lie that the hurricane response was hampered because FEMA spent its budget helping people crossing the border illegally.

It is true that truckloads of bazooka militia have never been found. But a North Carolina man is accused of “arming the terror of the public” after he threatened FEMA workers and was arrested last week in Rutherford County, North Carolina. The local sheriff said the weather denier had a rifle and a handgun at the time of his arrest. He was immediately released on $10,000 bond. Wonder what he’ll do tonight.

Criticism of the candidate who campaigned there in the state and made up more stories? There was none.

It is also true that it was not the presidential candidate himself, but rather his ardent supporter Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Georgia, who said of Democrats after Hurricane Helene swamped her region: “Yes, they can control the weather. It’s ridiculous when someone lies and says it’s not possible.”

Certainly. So ridiculous.

In the days that followed, the lying con man’s running mate went to Greene’s district to call her “a good friend of mine” and told her constituents that they had “another great, strong female leader in Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene… She is a loyal person, and you have a great congresswoman here in Marjorie.”

A terrible congressman. The kind of person that truly sane, responsible American politicians would want to associate themselves with.

The creepy buffoon of a presidential candidate was introduced at a campaign rally on Wednesday by a creepy buffoon of a former journalist, Tucker Carlson, who said a second administration would be like an angry father giving a “severe beating” to his disobedient daughter, that is, the rest of us Americans.

He said the country now resembles a child who “spreads the contents of his diapers on your living room wall,” or a “hormone-addled 15-year-old daughter” who gives her parents the finger and slaps her. bedroom door.

But everything turns out fine in the household, because “When daddy comes home, you know what he says? ‘You’ve been a bad girl, you’ve been a bad girl… This is going to hurt you a lot more than it hurts me. And you earned this. You’re going to get a good spanking for being a bad girl.’

The crowd, as they say, went wild.
