On the Flint MI Water Problem
« on: May 07, 2019, 02:25:55 PM »
Very interesting. I've read several articles of late regarding absolutely horrendous corruption at the local level regarding the Flint MI "water crisis". The incompetence and greed of the local political machine is quite something to behold. But still Trump's fault, amiright?

1.  Someone is voting for these clowns.

2.  I would hope someone would sick the Feds on these people for embezzling federal funds.

I hate it when a presidential hopeful (or hopeless, in Trump's case) forces a random town to sabotage their own water supply. That's just the worst.

They keep voting for the same clowns over and over again because if they don't and the other guys get in things could start going downhill.

What's especially insidious is that Trump began exerting his Presidential power retroactively, messing with Flint's water supply before he was even elected to public office!

Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

Before anyone even expected him to be elected to anything. That's why I called him a presidential hopeless.

No, he’s a wizard. Adams called it in 2015

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Milwaukee just spent $100million+ on a retarded trolley, but continues to ignore the lead problem in the poorer areas of the city.
