Everything is plausible to people who are totally out of the habit of considering claims critically, and instead are used to just going with the feeling. This is where accepting lies takes you.

If the weather was controllable, in this case hurricanes, Mar a Lardo would have been in the eye.

MTG is beyond insane, no wonder she likes DonOld, and he likes her, kindred spirits.

Wow! Now Fema will have to reply to the propaganda in some meaningful way.
Katrina was a factor against Bush.
The Dems are aware of this ; I have never seen the words "misinformation and disinformation" used so often. LOL.

You also have not seen so many lies before. I much prefer 'lies' to 'misinformation and disinformation,' the high class words dignify the crap.

NO, despite appearances she's not insane. She's shit kicking on purpose. As I said in another post she keeps saying bullshit like she does because the Republican base keeps accepting it.

Spent last week in the Smokey Mountains on the Tennessee side of the park. Road closures, detours or very long delays to go to east to Asheville or south to Cherokee. So did not see any of the storm damage only trucks and crews heading south.

One sight that amazed me was the large number of "Trump Stores" around the area. There were sometimes two on opposite corners of an intersection. Forget how many times I noticed a pickup with a load of Trump signs on the road.

The cult runs deep down there.

Agreed, and she does this to rake in donations.

That's definitely worse than her being insane!

See Heather Cox Richardson latest column (Oct 13) for a detailed description of the psychology behind what MTG and Trump are doing. There is indeed method in the madness.
