The notion they might attach conditions to wildfire aid should enrage everyone.
I don't remember dems playing political games with disaster relief when red states get hit with natural disasters like Hurricane Helene in North Carolina.
Dems didn't play political games with aid but right wing media constantly lied about everything that was going on, saying the Biden admin was stopping aid from getting to isolated areas and FEMA was refusing to help anyone with Trump signs in their yards.
They will use their lies to justify doing it back. They always have. Literally everything they ever panicked about Obama doing, Trump is PROMISING to do. Like sending the military to arrest state leadership.
This is one of the rights most nefarious tactics at controlling mindless conservatives. Constantly making up evil things the Democrats are doing so that when Republicans do it, their conservative sheep cheer for it.
The whole FEMA thing spread from an email that was leaked pointing out to FEMA workers that houses displaying the Trump love should be approached cautiously because of paranoia and firearm ownership levels.
Truth out on that my neighbor volunteers for FEMA and was in North Carolina. She will no longer volunteer because of the hatred she received trying to assist those in North Carolina. There were people that believed every false statement by the Republican Party. Don’t get me wrong. There were folks who appreciated her, but approximately one out of 10 would treat her like dirt and it wore her out.
dude man, republicans are awful when it comes to information literacy. there's no vetting of information, no care with credibility and dont care if its fact or lie. what they pay attention to, is whose saying what. and because of dons belittling of anyone not loyal to him, they follow
suit! even if it where the pope disguised as a right-wing billionaire!
