    I don’t think it means anything, I don’t think he doesn’t care. I just think it’s very odd. We can agree it’s a strange choice of response I think?


    It may be odd. Or he may have had a very good reason for saying that.

    what is by far much more strange is the rights reaction, because the no comment in and of itself was meaningless. Biden and the feds will get  aid into the region (unlike republicans who actually voted AGAINST emergency help for the Hurricane Sandy victims ten years ago). 

    actually voting against emergency aid vs no comment. Yeah it’s the left that gets away with nonsense /s

    to make matters worse, is it Bidens party  supporting the never ending burning of fossil fuels that harm the climate that makes fires like Maui worse?

    fed response had already been mobilized by then.

    Yup.

    Even removing trump from the equation.  Imagine if GW or his father or hell, if Mitt won the presidency and said "No comment".  There would be an uproar, just different voices.  

    In reality, it's just a weird statement to make, but presidents have microphones pushed in the faces all the time, some weird stuff is bound to happen.

    & every response is dissected / examined / scrutinized to no end, so in a lot of (most?) cases, 'no Comment' is the safest thing that can be said.

    "No comment" to me was a stupid moment akin to Obama's coffee cut salute, as opposed to an outrageous moment akin to "I did not have relations with that woman."  I wish we could move on but that's not who we are anymore.

    I found this excerpt from last night's Letter to an American particularly interesting, and relevant. 

    "Whether or not you agree with the level of response the Biden administration has provided to those suffering in the fires, the pattern of using the media to establish a narrative that the administration is ignoring Americans when it clearly is not is almost exactly what happened with the East Palestine, Ohio, railway disaster in February 2023. Then, pro-Russian accounts promptly began to argue that the Biden administration was ignoring a disaster at home—when emergency personnel were on the ground immediately—in order to fund Ukraine’s war against Russia’s invasion.

    Now, behavioral scientist Caroline Orr Bueno, a specialist in disinformation, noted that the X (Twitter) account that seeded the “Hawaii, not Ukraine” narrative was created just last month and that accounts associated with both Russia and China are amplifying the narrative that Biden has neglected Maui. It seems telling that the same right-wing “independent journalist” who went to East Palestine has flown into Maui to attack Biden’s response, showing up on Trump ally Steve Bannon’s “War Room.”

    I'm assuming one of our maga friends will come here and try to tell us Joe fell asleep at a ceremony in Maui and forcefully demand we denounce it or else we are all pieces of shit. Story is spreading in the right wing echsphere. Truth is, the guy nodded his head for a few seconds.

    He was saying a prayer.  Watch it….he nods to himself, his lips move, and he nods at the end of the prayer.  I dislike Joe but Christ give the guy a break.

    "The story is spreading in the right wing echosphere"

    I haven't heard of this so it must be a right wing echosphere that only gets mentioned on a Pearl Jam forum.

    I did see that when Joe went to speak in Maui, that he said he could relate to the fire because he knows what it's like to lose a home due to fire which is another total bullshit lie. 

    "I don't want to compare difficulties, but we have a little sense, Jill and I, what it's like to lose a home." - Joe "Lyin" Biden

    That's how out of touch Joe is. He believes that a small kitchen fire is similar to the most deadly US fire in the last 100 years. Of course he's going to nod off because he's old. I don't even care to look into that.

    It is pretty pathetic that Joe doesn't get called out when he straight up lies trying to compare what he's gone through to something that is much bigger than his stupid little kitchen fire.

    Honestly, the guy just needs to pray harder. Or at least sing along with prayer. Since he did not do that, he is NO DIFFERENT than the traitors on our women's national soccer team! maga!!!
