THE ERA OF TRUMP

[K@th]

Trump says Puerto Rico officials should be ‘proud’ more haven’t died like in Katrina

President Trump on Tuesday told Puerto Rico officials they should feel “very proud” they haven’t lost thousands of lives like in “a real catastrophe like Katrina,” while adding that the devastated island territory has thrown the nation’s budget “a little out of whack.”

Lots of fail, here. This man is an idiot. Sheesh.

1. Thousands died in Katrina due to FLOODING not wind. Surge was 30 feet high then, 4 feet high in PR
2. PR was a wind event, and the count of those dead isn’t nearly complete
3. Maria was also a REAL CATASTROPHE because almost everyone on the island lost their homes/work/car/family or more
4. PR did not “throw off the budget”. MARIA did.

No shit, Sherlock.

(Honestly speaking, I assume you did know that already)

Puerto Rico can finally talk about something other than how their corrupt and useless government bankrupted their island.

I knew. He had a lot of loyal followers last time I was here. Are they starting to realize he's a dolt?

The people stonewalling Trump are for the most part stonewalling the majority of the American people and, in the case of the republicans doing it, their own voter base. There will be consequences.

Kath, doesn't work anymore.

The tears, the outrage, the pitty for the people of color hurt. We are not buying the emotional games anymore.

PR was a corrupt shit hole before this, it will be a corrupt shit hole after this. US Tax dollars will pay to rebuild there infrastructure and they will always complain it was never enough.

Doesn't the Left ever feel embarrassed for using human suffering to further their political goals, It's fucking sickening.

I'm remembering why I left. Let's not have facts get in the way of your feelings, right?

Emotions and facts are two things that can be argued, but only one is backable by truth, the other opinion. We just need to remember which one we are attempting to argue to get a point across.

So, which of my four points is not the truth?

I am pointing out that we need to be careful what we debate as fact.

Flooding was the majority of reasons why people died, yes, but it was an effect of the true reason why it happened. Katrina made the waters higher, the flooding happened because of three reasons.

1. Where the flooding hit was under the city was already under sea level, so flooding wasn't going to be an if, but when.

2. The Levies were not upgraded as they were meant to be, so when they failed they failed catastrophically. They were also designed improperly, in where they overestimated the ground strength, so when the 17th street levy failed it was because of improper design and implementation.

3. The Levies were meant to be upgraded before Katrina but the money never showed... so in reality, the reason for the failure of what happened to New Orleans was mainly self-inflicted. Plus the mayor and others didn't help their own causes by not bussing people out when they had the chance either.
