Is Donald Trump and MAGA going to lecture Republicans and say they should rake the forests or nah?

Maybe god’s punishing them for trying to disenfranchise 60k voters and overturn a legitimate election.

Also- abortion bans. The goddess is v angry

fink-maxin.bsky.social•30 days ago

Sucks for you, will be my position for every Red State catastrophe for the duration

jabbajoe.bsky.social•30 days ago

They need to get that water running down from Virgimia!

wendygirl9.bsky.social•30 days ago

Of course not.An article stated that was still downed trees and debris that was not cleared out.

hesocrazy.bsky.social•29 days ago

He will blame the Dem governor.

dorojane.bsky.social•30 days ago

Can't they just turn the spigot on and get it under control?🙄

doxie-dachsie.bsky.social•30 days ago

That's only ¼ to ⅓ of what hit LA. Talk about wussies.

rileymore.bsky.social•30 days ago

and we had 100 mph winds, grounding helicopters to put out the fires! they can fly in below 45mph winds! wussies indeed.

doxie-dachsie.bsky.social•30 days ago

Exactly what I meant. People can still stand in a 40 mph wind. Not so much with 100 mph.

guy-montag.bsky.social•30 days ago

Fuck no

bryanttl1953.bsky.social•30 days ago

They will rush to promise aid and money to rebuild without and conditions. NC is a “red” state after all. We really need to stop the red vs blue thing. We are supposed to be the United States. I understand that the “Trumplicans” are the ones who continue to bring up red vs blue.

missy-ubermom.bsky.social•30 days ago

Can confirm the winds have been insane today!!!

caleehowdy.bsky.social•30 days ago

He will order a hose turned on like he did out here in Northern Cal.

themikerobbins.bsky.social•30 days ago

Quick! Turn on the faucet!!

landrgates.bsky.social•30 days ago

Well they better go turn on that great big faucet.

danalibrariana.bsky.social•29 days ago

Turn on the big faucet!

nancyginga.bsky.social•29 days ago

What about turning on valves?

nightshades101.bsky.social•30 days ago

Okay so what ya’ll need to do….is simply turn the big valve. Righty tighty, lefty loosey. You’re welcome, NC.

the-old-dog.bsky.social•30 days ago

Open the valves for God's sake!

mlemay64.bsky.social•30 days ago

Do they have a giant water faucet in New England that the Army can turn on?

2028stateofmind.bsky.social•30 days ago

I think we need to hold back any funding and support until we know the people of Old Fort will use it wisely

You see, MAGA? Do you see how DUMB that sounds?

stcooper.bsky.social•30 days ago

Maybe he’ll claim he can turn on the magical tap up north in Kentucky or Virginia to provide them with water. 🤦‍♀️

cmaxmost.bsky.social•30 days ago

Every DEM should vote against aid to NC unless the GOP agrees to fully fund California's fire recovery

rileymore.bsky.social•30 days ago

helicopters can fly in 25 - 35 mph winds to put out the fires! unlike the palisades fire, where winds were 100 mph, and helicopters and planes can't fly in 45mph+ winds to put them out! mayors and governors can't control wind speeds!

courtney01.bsky.social•30 days ago

Well per Trump’s PR girl, all they have to do is turn on the water faucet … just like she said they did in California.

Who knew it was THAT easy?

cryofly.bsky.social•30 days ago

There is a faucet in Virginia.
Only the military can open that.

harostar.bsky.social•29 days ago

I wonder whether Trump will hold aid hostage for them like with California.

meclac.bsky.social•30 days ago

Trump will probably say an ember from California wildfires was identified as the cause of the fire.

joeymonzo.bsky.social•30 days ago

Turn on the faucet!!

magabuster.bsky.social•30 days ago

No aid to rural NC until they learn to read above the 5th grade level.

mrsplc33.bsky.social•29 days ago

No aid!

mtscott53.bsky.social•30 days ago

Hey Trump, where is the valve?

baileygd.bsky.social•30 days ago

Does he need to go there and turn on the water?

wicksdoug.bsky.social•29 days ago

I wonder if the army will turn the water on and save the day ...

jim491865.bsky.social•30 days ago

Its that time of year relax folks

marsyd.bsky.social•30 days ago

Trump says to turn on the faucet!

reallyimeanreally.bsky.social•30 days ago

Just turn on the water!

tme23.bsky.social•30 days ago

I hope the people and animals are safe.

choochie6.bsky.social•29 days ago

Rake the forest? New level of dumb completed

carvinsnow.bsky.social•29 days ago

“Rake the leaves, open the water pumps” dumbest administration ever. Trump will approve recovery funds no questions asked. For California he said he needed two conditions met before approving disaster relief. Both conditions were fairly stupid.

tree83.bsky.social•30 days ago

Can they turn a spigot on from VA?

jane2157.bsky.social•29 days ago

Fire is tough to fight without wind. Hope winds don’t escalate to 100 mph as happened in California.

thebluenami.bsky.social•30 days ago

as someone who had to evacuate from the pacific palisades in LA, my heart goes out to north carolina. it's devastating, and fires don't choose political party when they burn

AND i'm waiting for t-minus 3, 2, 1...until 🍊 claims there's another water faucet in north carolina that will fix this

danagpnw.bsky.social•30 days ago

Or he blames California for hoarding all the water.

joebin818.bsky.social•30 days ago

25 to 35 mph? That's candyass.

patrickpoll.bsky.social•30 days ago

Turn on that big faucet from Lake Erie!

v-ron.bsky.social•30 days ago

Turn on the water!
Send in the military to release the water!
Deport the DEI trees!
Build the smelt damns!
🤦‍♀️

marktobin.bsky.social•30 days ago

Just turn on the spigot in Virginia, problem solved.

stephielynn204.bsky.social•30 days ago

Let the water flow!!!

nailpounder.bsky.social•29 days ago

pepe-mccormack.bsky.social•30 days ago

I guess Trumb forgot to open the water spigot.

courtney01.bsky.social•30 days ago

Trumb!
I like it …
it rhymes well with dumb.

pepe-mccormack.bsky.social•30 days ago

I’ve been using it for a while; unfortunately, it never took hold because users were too busy dropping 💙 to obvious stupid questions from influencers than helping fight MAGA.

pepe-mccormack.bsky.social•30 days ago

Thanks for noticing…

k9healer.bsky.social•30 days ago

Just turn the water valve on.

stonemason1776.bsky.social•29 days ago

...before the military shows up

zellymae.bsky.social•29 days ago

Nah. He’s going go over there and turn on the magical handle with the military so the water can flow. I believe in unicorns before I believe anything he says.

saffship.bsky.social•30 days ago

maybe orange turd can fly in & turn on the water tap

killiplaw.bsky.social•30 days ago

Maybe he should turn on a spigot in Virginia, because water runs north to south.

dixonmaiass.bsky.social•30 days ago

I think the same faucet that feeds California can feed North Carolina. If it doesn’t, we can always deploy the magic Sharpie. Or does that only work for hurricanes? I get confused.

prime157.bsky.social•30 days ago

"You see, if we just deploy all military personnel in human centipede style from Cali's water pump to NC's fires, then," draws line across map, "Trump saved NC."

feistycat.bsky.social•29 days ago

The bucket brigade!

tooze.bsky.social•30 days ago

Trump: "The US Army Engineers will redirect the "Andrews Geyser" to extinguish these fires! Enjoy the water."

bad-butterfly.bsky.social•30 days ago

Just turn the water back on!

ms4tune.bsky.social•29 days ago

He just came here last week to spout his bs at our Helene recovery. He won’t help that or these fires.

a-a-ron-prime.bsky.social•30 days ago

He'll blame it on BatMan

jonrademacher.bsky.social•30 days ago

Well, thank God he ended the windmills though because that kind of wind would certainly have caused them all cancer WHILE their homes burned if the windmills were running. *phew* We really lucked out on that one.

wednesday284.bsky.social•29 days ago

Is there a water facet in Pennsylvania’s they can turn for Trump

trixxyil.bsky.social•30 days ago

NC has a democratic governor. Trump may try to extort something for FEMA aid. Maybe a state supreme court seat?

yogasanity.bsky.social•30 days ago

He should turn the spigot on. That will solve it.😏

peter-speeder1.bsky.social•30 days ago

Especially since we had gusts of 60-100 mph.
