politics

His supporters are so dumb.

This guy is so detached from reality, it's surprising he's not suggesting that California asks the Jews to use their weather control device to create rain where needed.

Conservatives don't have enough backbone to actually defend this nonsense, they'll just slither away when confronted about it. Oh, but they'll still back this goddamn moron either way.

So, when I read a headline about a politician talking about something, and what they say sounds so far beyond ridiculous and stupid, I imagine there is probably some level of context that makes it less stupid, but just poorly stated, that the particular article has no incentive to show.

Apparently not this one, as Trump went on to blame the Governor of California for not dampening the forests, and suggested the water falling in the north is "free."

That is honestly one of the dumbest things I've read from an adult, and people cheered for it.

Will the media never learn not to give this moron a platform ? We do not need to hear his every "thoughts" on whatever topic. People who have not grasped at this point that he is as stupid as a sack of corrugated plastic will never be convinced. Stop giving him exposure for pity's sake.

Spoken like a guy who has never seen the vastness of our national forests.

I suppose we should stop hurricanes by drying up the ocean.. just install a drain, really horrible ocean management.

Or stop earthquakes by putting rubber feet under cities, very poor city design....

I remember when Trump suggested raking the California forest would prevent wildfires.

He was our president then, elected by the US. It was a very embarrassing time for the USA. The world laughed at us. I didn't vote for him but he still made me feel shame for our country.

Good idea, let's do that. Except there's no way to do that manually, so we'll have to use some sort of natural process...how about rainfall? All we'll have to do is reverse climate change, and then we can increase the average rainfall in California, and then the forests will be "dampened."

And it was all Trump's idea; to repeat, "anthropogenic climate change is real and we should reverse it" is now Trump's official, stated political platform.

All right, shh, nobody say anything, let's see if this works

Excellent work. Really indicative of a guy who spends his life indoors.

My solution: jail Drumpf and wet the forest with conservative's tears... they seem to cry so easily

The moron cannot imagine a solution that doesn't involve throwing some money at. Because all his problems are solved by lawyers and/or a few million dollars, it's outside his ability to understand the scale of real problems

Of course there are forest fires in Austria. The climate of the northern Alps is not conducive to fires, but the south is more vulnerable.

“They say that there’s so much water up north, that I wanna have the overflow areas go into your forests and dampen your forests,” Trump said. “Because if you dampen your forest, you’re not gonna have these fire forest fires that are burning at levels that nobody’s ever seen before.”

Absolute dumbass shit.

‘You have very poor land management,” he continued before recalling a conversation he had with an Austrian official about forest fires in that country. “He said, ‘Sir, we have more flammable trees than you do on your coast. We don’t have forest fires. We have land management.’ They take care of the land. They pick up the dead trees. You know, a tree doesn’t burn very easily unless it’s dead. Then it gets dry and it burns. The leaves on the ground – they’re five feet thick over here.”

Stuff that might be true (I'm never going to look into this) but isn't funny. Goddamn Trump sending mixed signals here.

Do Republicans know the story about the king who had no clothes on? Do they understand what it is about and how it is a metaphor? Do they know the word metaphor? Who am I kidding....

Yes. Moisten your wood, California. Moisten your wood.

You know what the saddest part is? Trump voters will try every trick in the book to convince everyone else they’re mentally ill, yet they will vote for this or any other dumpster fire, to keep from looking in the mirror.
