I mean, seriously, do you really think Chickie had an original thought, and went back and found that tweet from Trump on his own? In the words of our Prez, "C'mon man!"
In the words of Saint Ronny "Well, there you go again" SMH. I asked you where in what Chicks posted said anything blaming tRump for the derailment and as usual you pirouetted away from the question and threw in your favorite whipping boy the "lefty news" just to make you reply seem valid and witty.

Oh please, Repubs have been throwing blame around (mainly directed at Biden) since inauguration day 2021.

East Palestine woman rolls eyes at Trump visit as other locals trash political 'publicity stunts'

Donald Trump's brief stop in East Palestine, Ohio in the wake of a train accident that spread toxic chemicals in the community, is not getting across-the-board rave reviews from locals who are growing increasingly angry at seeing their tragedy turned into a finger-pointing war between Democrats and Republicans.

Donald Trump, who appeared with his son, Don Jr, showed up at the town and turned it into a 2024 presidential campaign event complete with handing out bottles of Trump water and MAGA hats -- and that spectacle was not lost on members of the town, with one calling the visit, along with one by Rudy Giuliani, "publicity stunts."
So, when the rubber hits the road, even MAGAMorons are starting to realize that Donny really doesn’t give a crap about them. Whell’s World coming to grips with reality. Encouraging, but Whell still persists with his nonstop nonsense.

Um, what the entire f*k was Rudy doing there? That being said, some of the cult are absolutely giddy over tRump's visit. Thinking he actually accomplished something, but unable to say exactly what.

Biden's push to make America a leader in EV manufacturing may finally be paying off as Toyota announces a plant in the U.S.

I am not a fan of corporate welfare since it mostly benefits large corporations, but in this instance I am for it simply because its better than tax cuts to the 0.1%, especially if this creates real jobs.

But wait, there's more

Trump's Niece Calls His Ohio Visit 'Clueless And Out Of Touch,' Says 'Trump Water' He Gave Residents Was Undrinkable

After tons of toxic chemicals what's a little tainted water? Most likely taking a tax write off for his TRUMP WATER he can't unload any other way.
