As 30-40 go missing in just one county, Trump says it's all "going well"

Donald Trump just tweeted that it's all going well.
But 5 are confirmed dead even though it's be hard to count the dead yet, and 30-40 people are missing in Port Aransas alone.







Heck of a job, me!

of dead-enders that hang on for him, that he DOES NOT GIVE A SHIT about the lives of Citizens. Witness his outpouring of grief and empathy for the families of the drowned sailors.
I have screaming at my TV all morning.
Am I the only one who can't contain my anger anymore? Many of my fellow DUers must feel the same way.

ever since this ass got into the WH. Anyone can see he is completely unqualified, inexperienced and just plain DUMB. I get angry just seeing his photo, he is repulsive. My blood pressure meds have been increased, and now I think my stomach ulcer is becoming active again. He is bad for everyone's health. The draining of the treasury on his entire family's travels irritates me, too. New laws should be passed, let them pay for their own security. None of them have done a hard day's work in their useless lives, yet act like royalty.

The only thing that helps me keep some kind of balance is knowing there are others who think as I do.

Oh yeah, and don't forget to write your Social Security number on your arm, just in case we find you floating.

It is almost like Putin has some really bad dirt on Trump to have him destroy America to try and save his ass! His cabinet appointments are designed to destroy the agencies they are in charge of. Deregulate to the point of killing us with all sorts of bad stuff. Divide the country and destroy all relationships with our allies.

Paul Ryan Mitch Turtlehead need to be jailed for treason!

Those "experts" are scientists... I thought they were just Fake News?

But the reality is that if it is not happening to the buffoon-in-chief, it's irrelevant. He's not affected and so it is as if it's not happening.

It's like peekaboo with a baby. When you cover up your face, to the baby you no longer exist, and so it's exciting to the baby when you remove your hands from your face and seem to pop back into existence.

If the b-i-c is not experiencing it - whatever it is - it's as if that thing is not happening. It doesn't matter to him. It's not even worth thinking about. So we know that anything in his tweeting that refers in some substance to an outside event that doesn't affect him, it's being done by someone else or at someone else's direction.

And to answer your question, no, it won't matter to his "Cult of the 34%," even those suffering in Texas. They'll find excuses for him. Hell, it wouldn't surprise me to find them saying at some point that it was their own fault that they didn't evacuate, or protect their homes better, and eventually claim that the response to Hurricane Harvey was better than Obama's response to Hurricane Sandy.

was none other than the beloved by Satan Ted Cruz and his crony, Cornyn. Lovely people. Right. Watch out for the bible quotes which will pour forth from the so-called christians.
