No words- the heroism here, the all of govt approach to help from the current President & CA Gov & LA first responders and compare it with the President elects' screed and blame game. That's not what people voted for.

Donald blames because he can't do. Donald blames because he's threatened and jealous of those who can do.

I'm reading about Easy Company, 101st Airborne, going into France, 1944. They wouldn't be able to comprehend or tolerate a man like Donald.

What a shame that we have elected a complete moral and ethical failure of a man...again.

The next four years will be a chaotic mess of non-governance, but there will be plenty of threats and tantrums. Oh yes, and the constant fawning from the incompetent Cabinet.

History will show this was the tangible failure point of the Republic.

How about a President who's temper tantrums are the envy of bedwetting toddlers everywhere?

Speaking of bedwetting toddlers... are the rwingers here still proud of the first President ever to enter office as a convicted felon?

Bet they are.

God forbid there is an F5 tornado in OKC in the next four years. King Dotard II will show up, start throwing lumber around, go on about how good a builder he is, grab and throw away someone's missing photo album, then step on a nail...

... A President that Helps or Blames ...

A President that Helps wants to unite.

A President that Blames wants to divide.

Luke 11:17

... "Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and a divided household falls." ...
