    How is this surprising? Being competent is disqualifying in Trumps cabinet. Only the dumbest, and dullest.

        He believes he’s basically a god. It’s incapable for him to feel inferior. Which is why he’s actually one of the dumbest motherfuckers alive.

          He climbed that first peak in the dunning Kruger curve and refused to move any further

          Though that would probably incorrectly imply he once attempted to learn something

    Up to now, the incompetence has met with loss of money, inconvenience and quite a bit of fear and uncertainty.

    The longer this incompetence lasts, especially now that hurricane season is about to start … expect this government incompetence to start costing lives … lots of lives. Not just from the immediate consequences of serious natural events happening but from the lack of or delayed or mismanaged actions that will happen when relief and rescue efforts will be required to saved lives.

    Everyone shrugs off the stupidity right now because it isn’t hurting or killing people … that’s going to change in the next few months and expect the US to start getting severely damaged and destroyed, with no help or adequate recovery in sight.

      Let me tell you that many people around the US and the world are not laughing off the current administration’s stupidity because the death toll continues to rise, and lives continue to be shattered, both in general and specifically to FEMA.

      The incompetence has already caused hundreds of thousands of American deaths in the first Trump term. People seem to have forgotten about that and covid in general.

    The head is probably one of those people that think hurricanes appear randomly throughout the year similar to tornadoes or earthquakes.

    And perhaps a stern talking to by the orange person and waving a sharpie around a photo can persuade them to deviate from their path.

    The season is usually around September-November, when most vegetation has dried up or burned, wind and rain takes up speed… Etc. hurricanes just so happen to form at the Gulfstreams into the Ocean.
