The difference between Joe Biden’s geriatric sloth and President Trump’s tireless, unrelenting work ethic couldn’t be more glaring than it is right now. While Hawaii is crying out for help in the midst of perhaps the most devastating natural disaster in the state’s history, Biden is nowhere to be seen. By contrast, President Trump proves once again he’s the man Hawaii – and America – desperately needs.
The apocalyptic wildfires that engulfed Hawaii have destroyed entire cities, including the historic town of Lahaina. The damage in Maui is estimated at approximately $6 billion. Most chilling, the death toll, currently at 96, is expected to increase substantially as more bodies are discovered.
This is the deadliest US wildfire in more than a century.
Given the scale of the destruction, most patriotic Americans would expect their President to be holding press conferences, public briefings, sending aid, deploying help, rallying support and doing everything possible to support fellow Americans in dire need.
But while Hawaii was literally burning to the ground, Joe Biden spent the weekend on vacation in Delaware, the same place he vacationed all last week. The beaches in Hawaii could wait. Biden was busy relaxing on the beaches in Delaware.
His absence was so egregious, even the far-left media had to question him about it. “Mr. President, any comment on the rising death toll in Maui?” a reporter asked yesterday.
“No. No comment,” was the response. No comment.
Perhaps he’s too busy requesting supplemental spending packages for Ukraine, like he did last week. Because, with Joe Biden and the Left, America always comes last.
Trump, by contrast, filled the gap and did what Americans expect of a US President. He issued a sympathetic and poignant response that doubled as a reminder of the presidency Americans wish they had right now.
“I would like to express my sympathy and warmest regards to the people of Hawaii and specifically all of those who have been so gravely and irreparably hurt…” he began.
“The death caused by this catastrophic event will be far worse than ever expected now that houses and cars in other areas are being inspected. The sad thing is it should never have happened. Our government was not prepared. And very importantly, the aftermath is going very poorly…”
He continued:
“When asked about it today as he was getting into a car, perhaps coming home from the beach where he has been spending a great deal of time, crooked Joe Biden – the most incompetent president in the history of our country – with a laugh and a smile said he had no comment on death and the tragedy.
“To say no comment is oftentimes fine, but to be smiling when you say it especially against such a tragedy as this is absolutely horrible and unacceptable. It is a disgraceful thing….”
He ended with sincere words for those impacted:
“In any event, hopefully everyone will be able to pull together so that a horrible situation does not get even worse. To the families affected, I give you my love and sympathy. Nothing can ever replace your loved ones. But you will always have the memories and will feel their great love surrounding and embracing you. Together we will continue to carry their legacy forward. And I love you all very much. Thank you.”
That’s what a real President does. You can watch the full statement here:
