Republicans know they can't stop an act of God... It's the response and the preparation
...... This is the difference
Is that what happened in FL and NC after the big hurricane?
Really?
When disasters hit non-Republican areas, they are sure quick to claim the evil, godless Dems for God's retributions, though...
LOLOL. Tell that to the resident of Perry, FL.
I’m sure they’d love your response.
I'm old enough to remember the derecho that leveled areas around Cedar Rapids, IA
Mayor of Des Moines was nowhere to be seen....
Trying to stop the California High-Speed Rail (HSR) project that now has estimates to cost between $89 billion and $128 billion. 15 years later still no tracks. Just need another 8 years. 😆 🤣 😂 😹
Derecho hit at 2pm. She was deep in the sauce at that point. I'm just glad she didn't drive over and put people in harm's way again....again.
Also, can blame environmentalists who blocked normal forest management practices like removing dead brush, thinning out trees, and some controlled burns. Additionally, in an attempt to save one fish species, some reservoirs were drained into the ocean resulting in low, to no, pressure in fire hydrants. Lastly, during the pandemic, the city of LA let 113 firefighters go who refused to get the COVID vax. I bet they would like to have those extra fire fighters now.

Yes Florida and North Carolina both have way better responses to stuff than California could ever dream of... And way better preparation
What did Trump do last time he was president that helps California? Well he lowered taxes for one thing on the entire nation. Made policy about the border that worked. He helped to put an end to the defund the police movement in the nation... might not have worked in California. He also had an energy policy that helped the entire nation. He also had low inflation. I'm sure California resisted all of this because they are communist.
For a start, for many years common sense Republicans have pleaded with the California DEI powers that be to institute forest mgmt techniques like removing dead brush, removing some smaller trees, and some controlled burns. All of which were blocked by environmentalists. 🤔
How about obtain homeowner’s insurance much easier/more inexpensive than California homeowners, many of whom reportedly weren’t able to even obtain such insurance.
Do they?
Seems like they had to rely a ton on federal responses and outside states....
So tell me how Florida is doing with the Burmese pythons, since Republicans are so great at mitigating disasters in FL?
Improve the water pressure in their fire hydrants. 🤔
And every Florida Republican Congressman voted against FEMA funding
Every Single Florida House Republican Voted Against Disaster Relief Funding
“That is a level of callous indifference and political opportunism that boggles the mind,” one Florida Democrat said.

Wow on Good Day LA the guy is reporting from palisades fire and all the homes are grounders except one that looks untouched because it was built with fire resistant materials… although that home owner will literally be the only person or family living in the entire neighborhood, among piles of fire damaged homes for likely 1-2 years.
Apples to oranges comparison…as hurricanes are an unpredictable weather event. Whereas, forest fires are ever present in California. There are certainly various pre-emptive mitigation procedures that could have/should have been done.
Yeah hard to tell what his focus was with the Dims trying to impeachment him in year 2 and that bug going around, I think they called it covid.
Dims should of went full force on california fire management instead the waste of time on impeachment.
Why do you think that was?
I’m not going to reiterate everything I and others have said in this thread to refute your blather.
Pieces of shit....every single MAGA. Hey moron, hurricanes are ever present
Put on your big boy pants and look for yourself. Between protecting the fish and the mice in the forest that was a no no.
IMO, they don’t. NC has a good governor. FEMA and the feds were in NC quickly.
Fl relied on utility companies from out of state. Just as we had to in CT 10-15 years ago.
Out of state utilities were able to reach FL much faster than in CT, due to the roads and bridges.
Nevertheless, we were without power for the same amount of time in both states. But Sandy gifted us with a snowstorm after a hurricane. I doubt FL could have handled it.
The difference. In CT, the D’s and R’s worked well together.
Translation: "I do not have any answers outside of what Elno and his minions post on X for me"
I’ve seen estimates that homeless Californians start approximately 50% of their fires.
We had a few controlled burns here in the Jacksonville area today.
The level of preparation and monitoring by the State is amazing.
True. And she left twenty years ago to move 3,000 miles away.
But when a celebrity is cut we all bleed. I just hope that with enough thoughts and prayers she’s eventually able to find some closure. 😢 🙏
