Biden Jokes About "Hot Ground" In Maui and Once Again Lies About Having Survived a Serious Fire

President Joe Biden finally traveled to Maui on Monday, almost two weeks after wildfires killed over 100 people, left 850 people unaccounted for, and cost billions of dollars in property damage. Over the weekend, Sarah covered some responses of Lāhainā residents, including those who didn't want the president to come, with Jay Awan pointing out Biden is "just coming to Maui to look good in front of the cameras." Biden's actual visit was met with some less than welcome responses from Maui residents.
Reporting from on the ground pointed to how residents had been there "for hours" with Hawaiian flags and signs proclaiming "he's too late," "he should've been here much earlier," and "actions speak louder than words."
Of course it's worth reminding Biden didn't even have any words to say for days about the wildfires. He's been on several vacations, including to Rehoboth Beach and Lake Tahoe, where his spokespeople say he's spending "some valuable, quality family time." He also notoriously told the press "no comment" on several occasions when asked about the fires, even doing so with smirks and silence that continues to this day.
Despite such a piss poor response, the White House and even Biden himself have been trying to hit people over the head with claims that the administration has done such a fitting job, from the start, and that they're to be commended. Countless statements, fact-sheets and tweets have gone out, but much of it has been too little too late.
The start of one Twitter thread, from Sunday, wanted users to believe that Biden has been involved "[s]ince the onset of the Maui wildfires."
Another tweet, from earlier on Monday claimed that the administration was working "around the clock."
...
During a more recent press gaggle, aboard Air Force One on Monday, Principal Deputy Press Secretary Olivia Dalton insisted "it's important to remember that the president has been there from day one." It's a view she thinks that residents of Maui need to believe too.

And then Biden showed why he's called the Cicero of Scranton.

As expected, his remarks were full of stumbles and pitfalls, with Biden not only mispronouncing the word "tragedy," but the names of Hawaiian officials as well.
During that "community event," the president said "I don't want to compare difficulties," and then proceeded to do just that, by claiming he lost his house in a fire. In reality, that "small fire" caused by a lightning strike was "contained to the kitchen" and "was under control in 20 minutes." That sounds much different from how the fires raged in Maui, as Hawaiian official M. Kaleo Manuel didn't want to let water be used to put out the flames.

Biden also recounted his Political Origin Story, again, about his wife dying in a car crash.

Mr Biden also said that he was no stranger to grief, and recalled the phone call he received after his first wife and young daughter were killed in a car crash.

What's the expiration date on this? Does he get to keep cynically exploiting a death forever?

I'm surprised he didn't regale the crowd with the tale of Beau Biden being heroically killed in Iraq.

He also "joked" about the ground being hot.

What a funny, empathetic leader.

President Joe Biden waded through the aftermath of the wildfires in Maui where he appeared to joke about the "hot ground."
The moment occurred on Monday as the president mingled with a first responder, prompting laughter from people nearby.
"You guys catch the boots out here? That's a hot ground, man," he joked.

JUST IN: President Biden jokes about how hot the ground is in Maui after a fire ripped through, killing hundreds.

“You guys catch the boots out here? That’s a hot ground, man,” he joked.

Despite media reports of roughly 100 deaths from the fires, locals estimate that at least… pic.twitter.com/mRlVuN9kns

A Biden spokesperson falsely declared that Biden has "been there since day one."

FACT CHECK: Since Day One, Biden has been on vacation twice and refused to speak about Maui at all, brusquely issuing a "no comment" to a reporter rather than express his sadness at the 111+ people killed Maui.

Biden spokesperson Olivia Dalton says Biden will "make sure that he communicates to [Maui residents] that not only have we been there since day one, has he been there since day one..." 🤔 pic.twitter.com/NgK2quOhxf

Biden then attempted to connect with people whose lives have been disrupted -- or even destroyed -- by a fire, noting that he once had a house fire and that the floor "almost collapsed."

FACT CHECK: This was a very small and very minor fire confined to a single room. Biden was never in any danger, nor was anyone else, not even Beau Biden.

In addition, it is factually stupid to talk about a fucking kitchen fire when you're supposedly consoling people who have lost homes, businesses, and family members to a roaring wildfire.

Biden: "we almost lost a couple firefighters" during a 2004 house fire and the floor "almost collapsed."

Reality: firefighters kept the "small fire" "contained to one room" and "there were no injuries." https://t.co/c6NKJx7aM3 pic.twitter.com/6WFvOeCS6c
— Zach Parkinson (@AZachParkinson) October 11, 2022

Biden then declared the fires to have been "unimaginable travedy."

FACT CHECK: The word "travedy" does not exist. Biden routinely reduces consonant clusters, such as the -dj- sound in tragedy, which he cannot pronounce, into slurs and entirely made-up pronunciations that are wrong but which his fucked-up strokemouth is capable of pronouncing.

Then the press tells us this is due to his "childhood stutter."

BIDEN: "...unimaginable travedy..." pic.twitter.com/LPfDVvnlT5

Biden also indulged his favorite pastime of badly mangling the names of local officials he's reading for the first time. Apparently he doesn't even bother to go over the pronunciation of the names before the speech. He just goes straight into claiming he's such a huge fan of people whose names sit as uncomfortably in his mouth as his wife-slash-nurse's finger.

I think what happened is that too many people in the area were totally unprepared for a fire or any kind of disaster. I'm sure a lot of people died -- especially kids -- because they were never taught what to do in a fire. They probably did do the worst thing they could do, which is lock themselves in a closet. All those drills we did as a kids about surviving fires and other disasters wasn't just wasting time. You may still die, but at least you are improving your odds. These kids probably knew nothing other than stupid woke dogshit.

I dunno. I think the death count will go much higher, or at least in reality it will. Based on all reports, the fire in some areas was so hot and burned so long that bodies would be reduced to ash, like in a cremation. How do they get an accurate count of that?

Another issue: what are the demographics of the areas most affected? The pics I saw looked like pretty small, poor towns that I imagine contained a lot of drifters or migrants. Their deaths will never be recorded.

This is a serious problem in all tyrannies.

Taking shots at the corrupt carcass known as Joe Biden -- as easy and gratifying as it may be in the moment seems like a waste of energy in the bigger picture.
Newsome , Big Mike , Kamala Ho and even The Pantsuit et al-- would seem to be better targets . Have no idea how Joe will be bumped out of the way but he could he really be the standard bearer for the Communists in 20/4. Even hard Left liberal friends know that the sack of vile shit could not plausibly, even with industrial ballot manufacturing, be selected in November 2024. ,

There has been a spectrum of emotions expressed here, from "I don't give much of a fuck" to "OMG, I am vividly imagining how horrible it must have been". And, there is a natural desire to be in some sort of denial about the horrible situation, because it reflects upon our own mortality.

Mix in the political idiocy of HI, and we Morons (who can be crude assholes) have a strong desire to express an "I told you so!" to the fools who vote godless commie.

I just hope and pray this disaster, and the authorities response to it, will wake up some of these people to the fact that you should always distrust Daddy Government, and it is not necessarily your friend.

Every now and then, I go back and read the Book of Job and especially concentrate on the dialogue between Job and his 'friends'. Eventually the Lord enters the conversation. Basically, this world is a fallen one and bad things happen seemingly without a reason to good people.

But, in a world of free will and evil, some will choose to do the wrong thing and some the right. Misfortune then is usually caused by a vast array of variables that we can never really find the scapegoat we are looking for. But, the Lord assures us he knows his flock and will take care of them however it might seem to outsiders.

This is especially true in blue enclaves, where decades of voting a certain way is passed on for generations.

Jesus Himself knew that even with all the miracles He performed, and all the wisdom He proclaimed, most would not believe Him to be the Messiah, and they killed Him when He didn't live up to their expectations.
He was saddened, but He kept on keeping on to reach those that were willing to listen and believe.

Sadly, I fear we are heading into Crusade level animosity, WWI Turk/Armenian conflict, or even Roman/everyone else conflicts. Both sides are hardening, and something will break. Fortunately, the Judeo-Christian side is slower to anger, otherwise the Burning Times would have already happened.

446 I suspect the cars being stuck thing is going to be similiar to people stuck in a building behind a door they can't open because they have to have room to do so and everyone is crowding to get out.

The cars in the front of the line pulled too close to the police/power company workers so they can't get around, and then people pulled up tightly behind them.

So when the fire starts to get near the people in the middle they can't go forward because there are cars and they can't go backward because their are cars - just like a door you need to pull open, people need to give space somewhere and...the people that could do that won't see the danger until it is too late.

450 For perspective: I grew up in a region plagued by wildfire. Most of the really devastating ones damaged property more than people, with two exceptions. Storm King was one. It killed a lot of brave men. I think maybe a dozen, if memory serves.

The other wasn't even one of the big ones. It was a little one down Foxton. It was a controlled burn that wasn't so controlled. Set by the State. Killed some people, burned a lot of structures.

Their response in that case was Maui-dumb. They let the burn break out, failed at containment, and then used the emergency alert system to evacuate the wrong people (Lakewood).

Their response to their own failure in this case was more callous: Gov. Hickenlooper's only response was a presser to explain why the State government couldn't be held legally liable for the fire they set.

When you see something like this happen: run away. These people hate you.

462 Our narcissism has infected our politics and our television … why not our cinemas? We are not a nation of strong-willed egoists, but fit-pitching babies. In his seminal 1979 work, The Culture of Narcissism, the brilliant social scientist Christopher Lasch argued that the human personality, its psychology itself, had changed over the course of the later 20th century.

Americans had been transformed from strong, religious and well-adjusted people into those showing a “minimal” self: a personality that is weak, childish and dependent on government, corporations, radical politics, loveless sex and bureaucracies for a sense of meaning. It’s why Barbie is a cipher who fills her empty soul with feminism and resentment.

If Biden gets us into Ukraine formally he WILL bring back the draft.

But the corporate side of socialism/Fascism/Nazism is one of it's few defining characteristics as opposed to straight communism.

Note: China rose on fascism. Xi trying to inject pure communism back into it is causing... issues. Although one could argue that he is not so much trying to exert communism as much as, strict control. It is a fine line, but I would say that ALSO is a difference between Fascism and Communism.

I truly doubt a fascist system could work long term, but it does better/longer than straight agrarian communism- or whatever you could say the soviets had by the end. Agrarian, Managerial, Industrial communism?

Well, it's nice to know that your animosity isn't real. I thought it was, and I just tried to defuse the situation without getting all involved.

Anyway, fascism and corporatism aren't all that removed in my mind, and yet the left's underlings, of which Paul is obviously a member, hold themselves up as anti-corporate, anti-military, but they have to go full corporate support and military support considering the narratives of today, proving, in my mind, that they're just partisans, not even ideologues. Disney HAS to be the good guy, because DeSantis is the opposition. Support for the military HAS to be there because to oppose it would be to oppose the toeing of the line towards fighting in Ukraine.

It's just...fascinating. It's just run of the mill cognitive dissonance, in the end, but still interesting.

I think those are values for normal times, like when they aren't about to try and imprison a former president and haven't been giving some of his followers multiple years in federal prison for parading. Among other things (like the endless cultural warfare in which livlihoods among other things are at stake). Though most shrink from the obvious conclusion, we are in an existential conflict, one which we are losing. Free will and the sanctity of life are not going to respected by the projected victors. They've told us so repeatedly, and we should believe them. Under these conditions, we should do what is required to win.
