President Joe Biden is being slammed for his “disgraceful response” — being termed his “Katrina moment” — after appearing unconcerned by the rising death toll in Hawaii when he offered “no comment” when asked about the current catastrophe after reclining at a Delaware beach.
On Sunday evening, the president reportedly said he had “no comment” when asked about the rising death toll from the devastating Hawaii fires that have ravaged Maui since Tuesday.
“After a couple hours on the Rehoboth beach, @potus was asked about the rising death toll in Hawaii. ‘No comment,’ he said before heading home,” tweeted Bloomberg White House reporter Justin Sink along with a photo of Biden on the beach surrounded by several people in beach chairs.

He is “special”, but not held to the same standard of course.
Who is slamming him? Certainly not the mainstream media.
If he had said anything more it would have been a Kamala moment.
“Joe Biden doesn’t care about Hawaiian people”
Hi official presidential portrait should just be the back of his head as he scoots for the exit.
Kanye? Have something to say now?
At least Bush showed up in LA to get roasted.
Bandon at beach, no comment on Hawaii fire.
Same as Brandon reaction to Norfolk Southern freight train carrying hazardous materials derailed in East Palestine, Ohio.
Nobody is in charge of this thing. Its all about implementing the agenda, nothing about governing responsibly.
These slams during natural disasters are political garbage put out by both sides. If our people are slammed, we should defend ourselves vigorously, not throw our guy under the bus as Bush did during Katrina. But that’s no reason to do our own nonsense slams.
Hes so disgusting...
But remember these are American citizens...
He would have been there already if they were some of his pet illegal aliens ...
IIRC, Dubya offered assistance several times, well in advance of Katrina but the locals and state declined. When it got out of hand, the Dems and media blamed the horrible response, quite successfully, on Dubya.
Anyone remember differently?
Truth
Did anyone ever politicize a natural disaster before Katrina? I can’t recall that happening until then.
The DNC was directing Governor Blanco.
Probably the most honest comment he’s made in 40 years.
The Rats did the same with Bush I with Andrew in 1992.
Gutless mayor and drunk governor!
Time for Biden to appoint Kamala Harris as “Hawaii Disaster Czar” so she can do for Hawaii what she’s done for the Southern border...
It has been said before.
They voted for it.
Why would uncle joe care? They’re Americans! Besides, the media is giving him a pass, unlike what they did to Bush.
