Did Trump supporters deserve this?

[Dargil]

The FEMA official instructed workers canvassing Lake Placid in Florida to avoid homes advertising Trump.

Absolutely not. That is simply evil.

Trump supporters DESERVE to be punished!!!

Something else.

[Makeushiver]

Trump supporters do not deserve to be punished no supporter in US elections deserves to be punished. It would be helpful if they could be educated however. Unfortunately, Trump supporters insulate themselves from hearing rational arguments from a free press. The majority that Trump had ie. the new Latin right as well as the less educated and underemployed white Americans are not meant to benefit in any way from a Trump administration. Trump is beholden to the money that supported him. To some extent, every candidate is but Trump is a legitimate narcissist and has so compunction about burnbing his own supporters. He didn't keep any jobs in US before and he is unable to now. The only way foor the rust belt industries to make a profit is to manufacture overseas. No manufacturing jobs will be made in US because anything made at the ~$60/hour ( the living wage combined with the benefits that have come to be expected ) would cost a fortune on supermarket shelves or car showroom floors. I understand the attraction of Trump. He gives people a lightning rod for their dislikes and disappointments but life is more complicated that Trump supporters seem to understand,. He does an excellent job of articulating the problems of his supporters but that doesn't mean he can- or would- do anything about them. Stop looking for conspiracies everywhere. The NY Times doesn't lie. The middle of the country and much of the middle class has been ignored by Democrats who are busy forcing political correctness don the throats of everyone. They must face that and drop the appeal to everyone which is tantamount to an appeal to no one policy they've had for decades. That does not make Trump smart, savvy or a statesman. He is a pathetic under loved kid who wants more attention than he gets and always will.

It’s getting to the point where leftists don’t believe Trump supporters deserve to live, much less receive government services they are entitled to. Just look at some of the comments on this thread.

There needs to be a thorough investigation into all federal agencies to ensure that there isn’t institutional discrimination against Trump supporters by the hardcore leftists who dominate the federal government. I would be surprised if this was some isolated incident, especially given how many Democrats think that Trump supports are “garbage” and “should be put into re-education camps”.

[Danzigdawson]

Yeah, well, you may be "garbage" who should be put in "re-education camps", but according to trump, his political opponents are just plain "vermin" who should be "rooted out", shot or jailed, while illegal immigrants are "poisonning the country's blood".

So... You don' exactly generate a lot of empathy for your cause, ISIS admirer.

[Avicenna]

@Danzigdawson: look here, it’s the butthurt Nazi revanchist who thinks a Jew is an ISIS supporter. Really anti-Semitic of you, Danzig.

I very much doubt Trump actually said what you attribute to him (although judging from your hate-filled GAG profile, I could definitely see you saying those things about Jews, Christian’s, and Muslims).

But I’m not surprised that you’re one of the leftists who I was referring to- you’re definitely a totalitarian and a propagandist, spewing all sorts of BS. Figured you’d love illegal invaders, though. You seem like the human trafficking type….

[Avicenna]

Incidentally, the FEMA supervisor who was fired has said that it wasn’t an isolated incident, but orders from above that also applied to the parts of North Carolina devastated by Helene. She says the incident reports will confirm what she says.

[Danzigdawson]

He said it. It's a simple fact.

How are you going to deal with it? Justify it? Calling it fake news without a shred of evidence?

[Danzigdawson]

Also, as I said before, could anyone please look for my virulent antisemitism on G@G? I'm looking for it in order to apologize to @Avicenna

[Danzigdawson]

Why do you insist on writing 'nazi' with a capital letter. I don't even do that.

[Anonymous]

would love to know who the 1 girl and 2 guys that said "trump supporters deserve to be punished". what kind of human being are you? you're the evil one. let people vote for who the fucking want to vote for. not helping a person in a freaking natural disaster because of their differing opinions is fucked up. what kind of American are you?

[NewWaves]

Not shocking but sad. On the flip side I wouldn't cut off my family. Especially my parents who are passive supporters of democrats. They're still my parents.

[Lliam]

For a government agency to do that is an abandonment of its mission. Government agencies are supposed to be unbiased and non partisan. They have an obligation to everyone! It's like fire department refusing to save a burning home because of who they voted for.
Pure evil.
Trump should immediately fire the head of FEMA and all those involved. They should be brought up on criminal charges.

[Fireguy17]

I have a hard time believing this is true, but if it is true someone or many people will be out of work, with possible lawsuits if it is indeed true.
We are all one country, so in times of tragedy it should not matter one bit what your political affiliation is, race, color, income, or anything else.
We need to help everyone.
We all pay taxes in order to pay into these services, so they should be available to everyone!

[Jersey2]

There are many news articles in it. Yes she did it she was also fired for it. She now has shown internal FEMA documents and messages from others saying the same thing. She says she is a patsy and this was ordered by her superiors who in turn fired her when it became public.

www.mediaite.com/.../

[Fireguy17]

@Jersey2 How can anyone be capable of doing that to your own people in such a time of need.
I'm glad she is giving up all of the other ass hats that participated in this.
Hopefully other heads will roll.
That is just so wrong. It just will only piss off more people.

[Jersey2]

I have come to learn over these past years that many in the Left truly hate people who have opposing views. It’s raw hate.

[Fireguy17]

@Jersey2 so much for being for the people eh?

[sawno]

Leaving someone in trouble just because you don't like their political choice is evil. Imagine I sabotaged someone's PC instead of fixing it because I see a document that they supported Kamala. Would be morally wrong for me to do.

[RageBabe]

Well said; this merely illustrates what has been said about them recently.

[Anonymous]

Perhaps if they didn't lie about not getting aide and then also forming militias to actively hunt FEMA workers in NC, there wouldn't be the concern about approaching Trump supporters. Ever think of that?

[Dongie]

Pull your head out.
You forget who you're talking about. We are the right. We don't use propaganda. We don't lie. We don't use children. We don't rely on pedophile actors from Hollywood. We don't listen to the liestream media. We are not the brainwashed idiots.

[Dargil]

Only if I were equivocating.

[genericname85]

no they didn't. for good reason, the person who instructed that has been fired. fema has publicly come out with a statement, stating what was done and who did it as a fact, so there's no legal contest about it actually happening and the person who did this is now rightfully under criminal investigation and will face the legal punishment for that.

[genericname85]

like the way fema just publicly anounced this shows that fema did not at all condone this.

[Anonymous]

Trump supporters deserve the same benefits as other Americans. But in times of crisis, difficult decisions have to be made. The FEMA official made a smart decision to avoid the homes that were clearly occupied by people with little to contribute to our democracy.

[lightbulb27]

the left hate and derangement is frightening. whomever made those decisions... are gonners... and they should be fired. not acceptable.

part of responsiblity is on left media for the demonization.

[DrPepper12]

It's not evil. Malicious, stupid and criminal yes. They should be fired and prosecuted!! I hate that kinda shit. A few years ago I challenged one of those political signs stealers and the coward drove off. Cops didn't give a shit either.

[Juxtapose]

It is in fact evil dude.

[Anonymous]

Did the FEMA workers who were being threatened to the point they had to stop going out to help (you know, with that aid Trump and Republicans were lying about not being available) deserve that either?

[FunkyMonkee]

You mean, because world peace; higher stocks; a secure border; less crime, murder & rape, lower unemployment, prices & taxes; free speech and a President who DOES HIS FUCKING JOB are bad things?

[Twalli]

It didn't happen. Fact is, thanks to MAGA Congress members they can only afford to apply minimal disaster relief measures. If MAGA Congress members had boted to increase their disaster relief funding this year, they would be able to help more.

[Juxtapose]

Yes it did happen, the person who told people to skip over the Trump homes actually got fucking fired. Get your head out of your ass.

[Twalli]

@Juxtapose Odd, I looked and saw no official orders.

[Juxtapose]

"TALLAHASSEE, Fla.—Attorney General Ashley Moody is taking legal action against current and former Federal Emergency Management Agency officials for conspiracy to discriminate against Florida hurricane victims who support President-elect Donald Trump. According to whistleblower reports, FEMA workers in Lake Placid were directed to ignore storm victims in households that displayed Trump signs or flags.

In an interview following these damning revelations, fired FEMA supervisor Marn’i Washington claimed political discrimination by FEMA is not an isolated event and occurred across the country. To hold the agency accountable for violating the civil rights of Floridians, Attorney General Moody is taking legal action against Washington and FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell, and seeking punitive damages in their individual capacities – as a tropical system develops south of Florida."

[debtfree_oneyear]

If true this is terrible. However as the story also said the supervisor who told the workers to avoid those homes had no authority to say this. It makes no sense why the workers would have obey what he said

[RedInnocent69]

Trump supporters don’t deserve support from FEMA or anyone else. They voted to get rid of it and will feel stupid as they lose services over the coming years

[Avicenna]

Can you show us where “Trump supporters voted to get rid of support from FEMA”? You do know that FEMA is required to provide aid to everyone regardless of political affiliation, right?

[RedInnocent69]

@Avicenna I was being facetious. But since you asked: www.newsweek.com/project-2025-will-dismantle-fema-leave-us-dark-opinion-1972498

[Avicenna]

LOL, Newsweek citing Project 2025. Now that’s some propaganda…..

[Juxtapose]

@Avicenna it gets to the point where if you know somebody mentions that, they have lost all credibility.

[Anonymous]

just look at the meltdowns on TikTok and YouTube and how these leftists are wishing harm on Trump supporters

[seeyounexttuesday]

I remember the media calling this a conspiracy theory

[RageBabe]

Absolutely not.

[Dongie]

I am through procedure. All is good.

[Jennz6]

No way they deserve that

[jimmy2]

The vote has the Truth

[worldscolide]

That's just evil.

[Dongie]

No.!
