Trump ignores Huckabee-Sanders

[Canada Kid]

Gov. Sarah Huckabee-Sanders has again asked for federal assistance for her state of Arkansas, ravaged by violent weather in the past few months. Request has been refused and ignored...testament to the crass attitude Trump has for his "friends" and moreover his supporters. So now Republicans are starting to realize what a piece of work they all voted into the presidency, and they all will be sliding into deeper doo-doo as the months tick by. Republicans must start to stand up for what is right, and stop licking Trump's ass. God knows when that will be. 15 Republicans have stood up to complain about Social Security and Medicaid, so we'll see where that goes.

1. Maybe if Shady Wanks give her his eye-liner and she give him her ash eye shadow they can make a deal. . . nt

[live love laugh]

2. It's performative...she knows he won't budge. She wouldn't either.

[Traildogbob]

3. We all ignore her.

The only thing I can agree with him on.

[Gore1FL]

4. They said they were going todo this and the people of Arkansas voted for it.

I hate to say that Trump is right, but "no FEMA" is what Sanders and her state begged for when they voted for him.

[rickyhall]

12. Less than half the state voted.

[Nasruddin]

21. As is their right

But for most of them, they too are getting what they "voted" for, by default

[Autumn]

5. She served her purpose. nt

6. Project 2025, p. 135, para. 4

Gosh, such a shame nobody had any warning about what they were voting for.

... reforming FEMA emergency spending to shift the majority of preparedness and response costs to the states and municipalities...

7. Is it true she asked him face-to-face but TSF couldn't tell whom she was talking to?.....................

.............................................................................................................too soon...?

[DENVERPOPS]

8. Sarah Huck-A-Pig

and her state of Republican mindless have just figured out that the second you have outgrown your usefulness, you are history in his CABAL's world.......

Next up?..............The Supreme Court Justices, The Republican Senators, and the Republican House Members........who all will soon wake up and realize there is no further need in a Tyranny, for a Legislative Branch or Judicial Branch of government..........

He is already throwing his MAGAot Voters under the bus........and they all are also to stupid to figure it out yet......

9. 10 years from now, when hopefully this is all behind us,

Repuglicans will say "I never met the guy. I don't know who this Trump person is."

[maxsolomon]

10. LOL, more likely they're going to put him on Mt. Rushmore.

If only to own the Libs.

Facts don't matter to Repukes. Only retribution.

[Nasruddin]

20. Hopefully, 10 years from now

That's Mt Flushmore

[IronLionZion]

11. He screws blue states but doesn't help red states

and doesn't know if he should uphold the constitution when asked

[NNadir]

13. While I feel for the people of Arkansas, some of them anyway, this is classic FAFO

[perdita9]

14. Super Storm Sandy hit my town in October 2012

Funding for affected areas in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania wasn't passed until Jan. 29, 2013 -- a 3 month wait. Many Republicans voted against the bill including Senator Tom Cotton, now begging for funding for his state of Arkansas.

I feel bad for the people in Arkansas who were affected by the tornados, but I also know they elected terrible people to office. Hopefully Sarah Huckabee Sanders can do something for them because Trump's made it clear that he's not going to help.

[BidenRocks]

15. More chump surprises

Gut NOAAand the NWS like he did and Surprise!
There's a tornado in your town you had no idea was coming.
Remember that President Biden would have help standing by, ready to roll. You called him old and sleepy.
Sorry! I remember the in your face insults and will not forgive.
Like all red states, they went overboard and sorry for the good ones, but if you weren't so mean about it, I could care more.
Ask Mississippi for help.

[mountain grammy]

16. 2 Senators and 4 Congressmen.. all men, all republican, all wealthy

the governor is a Huckabee, wealthy family.. and trump loves her and she will be just fine

Senator Cotton asked trump to reconsider.. nope! trump loves him too and he will be just fine.

Meantime more than 1 million Arkansas residents live in poverty and will not be fine.

Climate Crisis Impact on the Poor
Poor and low-income Arkansas households spend 5 times as much of their
income on energy costs as the average household.
Poor and low-income people are bearing the brunt of deaths and injuries due to
climate change. Arkansas has had significant changes in precipitation patterns,
with increased risks of flooding, drought, and water scarcity.

17. He also gave Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton the same cold shoulder.

Apparently he doesn't think Arkansas is of any value to him.

[Ol Janx Spirit]

18. Can't she ask the Walton family to help out?

Their global headquarters are in Arkansas: https://www.swagroup.com/stories/walmart-global-headquarters-arkansas/

And even back in 2020 they were making ridiculous amounts of money:
"The family are among the wealthiest dynasties in the world, earning US$70,000 per minute and US$4 million every hour, according to Bloomberg.

“At that rate, their wealth would’ve expanded about US$23,000 since you began reading this,” the website explains. “A new Walmart associate in the US would’ve made about six cents in that time, on the way to an US$11 hourly minimum.”"

But oh, I forgot: all risk is to be public; all profit is to be private. I guess at $4 million an hour they can't really be expected to help their neighbors....

19. Arkansas DID get FEMA assistance. . .

[paleotn]

22. Approval and actually following through might be two different things.

[Stargleamer]

23. good point n/t

[CANADIANBEAVER69]

24. From what I read in that attachment

it doesn't say anything about civilian monetary assistance. It just provides links to get more information, if living those areas, where I suppose one may find that info there, but I don't believe they will. I would like to be proven wrong.
