So you are against politicians changing their minds on issues and believe they should be forced to stick with their original positions no matter what...?!

Got it...thanks.

"Changing their minds on issues..." is that what douchebag hypocrisy is called in the trumptard circles?

Got it...thanks.

You do know this hurricane is number 22 on the strongest. Look it up.

It's supposedly #5

I just heard this discussed on the radio, and as I suspected, this whole thread is a gigantic LIE cooked up by Fagnus.

Previously DeSantis was arguing about the merits of how to deal with the issue, not that it shouldnt be dealt with. As always, democrats just want to throw a bucket of money at a problems and hope a few of the dollars do a little bit of good. DeSanitis said, No, that is not the way to deal with this issue.

Today, it is an entirely different matter. Today he is actually doing his job as governor applying for the disaster aid. Its an application, not a discussion of the mechanics of how aid is paid for and delivered.

Once again, we have another lying sack of shit Democrat spewing out fake news propaganda.

Retard. DeSantis was in Congress. His vote mattered. He wasn't an ordinary citizen shooting off his mouth.

When the storm hit NY, he could care less. Now that disaster strikes closer to home? He changes his tune and begs for funds.

That is what is known as hypocrisy. You idiots won't recognize it because you swallow the party line hook, line, and sinker. Let me know if you are still confused.

As a freshman congressman in 2013, Ron DeSantis was unambiguous: A federal bailout for the New York region after Hurricane Sandy was an irresponsible boondoggle, a symbol of the “put it on the credit card mentality” he had come to Washington to oppose.

“I sympathize with the victims,” he said. But his answer was no.

Nearly a decade later, as his state confronts the devastation and costly destruction wrought by Hurricane Ian, Mr. DeSantis is appealing to the nation’s better angels — and betting on its short memory.

The present circumstances have inspired a less swaggering posture toward a leader whom Mr. DeSantis has long called “Brandon” as a recurring troll, aimed at the man he might like to succeed. “Dear Mr. President,” the governor’s request for a major disaster declaration and federal assistance began on Wednesday.

“Ironically,” said David Jolly, a former Republican congressman from Florida, “there’s nobody in America that Ron DeSantis needs more than Joe Biden.”

Some Northeastern lawmakers, including Republicans, have not forgotten how Mr. DeSantis and some of his peers responded when the New York area was under duress. “Year after year, we had given them billions of dollars,” said Peter King, a former Republican congressman from Long Island, alluding to aid packages for Southern states and calling the resistance to Sandy relief his angriest moment in office. “Every one of them comes to New York to raise money. They either go to the Hamptons or they go to Manhattan. And both areas were devastated by Sandy.”

The Florida governor, who as a congressman opposed aid to victims of Hurricane Sandy, is seeking relief from the Biden administration as Hurricane Ian ravages his own state.

This is what the Gov said:
On January 5, 2013, DeSantis posted the following message on his Facebook.
“I sympathize with the victims of Hurricane Sandy and believe that those who purchased flood insurance should have their claims paid. At the same time, allowing the program to increase its debt by another $9.7 billion with no plan to offset the spending with cuts elsewhere is not fiscally responsible.”

Then you are a fool.
I know nothing about TheReaper and neither do you.
He may be 6'5" 250 and could break you in half with one hand.
He may be a little pussy with a gun.
Either way, you lose.

How many end of the world climate claims by the dems have we lived through now? She hit the nail on the head. I remember the fear of "global cooling" when I was younger along with the hole in the ozone and acid rain. Fear monger to gain more power is the plan of the dems.

So aid to blue states needs to be offset (usually by cutting something the GOP doesn't like thsat helpd middle class Americans or the poor)

But if a red state needs disaster fund...fork it over and don't worry bout the debt.

Got it

Got it

1) what was cut that helped the middle class or poor?
2) when Sandy hit NJ, the Gov was a republican
3) when has DeSantis changed his view?

 

[CarsomyrPlusSix]

the president and the Dems are honorable people and won't play politics.

Joe Biden. Honor.

Just, wow.

 

[Magnus]

Joe Biden. Honor.

Just, wow.

Yeah. The same can never be said about the orange douchebag.

 

[CarsomyrPlusSix]

Yeah. The same can never be said about the orange douchebag.

You’re a douchebag, and you’re blind if you think Biden has one iota of honor or integrity.

 

[Seymour Flops]

If the federal government weren't taking so much of our money in taxes while at the same time using inflation to lower the value of what little we keep, states could run our own Hurricane response programs tailored to our needs.

As usual this whole thing is based on misinformation.

Republican's voted against this bill because it was unconsciously high, contained all manner of "side bar" spending that totaled $9.7 billion. The Democrats never let a disaster go to waste, so they piled up favors, pork and other initiatives in the bill they called "NY storm relief".
ALSO - Republicans stated that the bill is not needed because there is a $63.4 Billion allotment already set aside for Hurricane relief so why do we need additional spending? All that was needed to was to increase the amounts FEMA could take due to flooding from that $63.4 Billion. Not a whole other spending bill on top of that.
But, as usual, the Democrats call Republicans evil for not helping people...and refusing to spend money on disaster relief - when THER WAS ALREADY MONEY ASIDE FOR IT.

It's how they roll, so anyone reading this thread take heed. These Democrat's are some crafty word salad maker's trying to get their way. Beware America, and know them when you hear or see them.
