Gee would you look at that? A tornado struck St Louis on Friday and ripped through 8 miles of it. People were killed and injured and property and infrastructure was destroyed. So of course Trump has commented and activated FEMA, right?
Nope. Bro was too busy sucking up to Quatar for a new plane. DOGE made massive cuts and Trump’s goal is to completely eliminate FEMA. The mayor of St Louis was interviewed and begged the federal government to send assistance.
But hey all of those MAGA cult members will be just fine I’m sure. We were all told several times that states and local governments will do a better job dealing with disasters than FEMA and the federal government. 
St. Louis Mayor Cara Spencer told MSNBC on Monday that FEMA had yet to assist after the city was ravaged by a tornado days prior.

If it’s any shock, they haven’t been to Kentucky, either. You know, home of two GOP senators and five of six GOP Congressmen.
Maybe he’s too mad fuming at the King of Norway for inviting Obama for a visit (which I find funny as all get-out!) to worry about the MAGAts.

The really sad part is the tornado cut right through the poorest part of St. Louis, too.

That's sad. FEMA even came to our county when we had 12" of rain. We got paid for the repairs we had to get done to the water heater and furnace. Surely they could have gone to a county that had a tornado.

It is truly sad. So many people hurting, their lives basically destroyed. And it's just about hurricane season...very hard to think about what could/will happen.
