A wee bit behind time, but still worth sharing. Trump was heading in for a speech and was this >< close to *not* speaking. It seems Mother is unhappy with Trump. Even she has gotten tired of his yapping and him. She told him so in no uncertain terms. With respect for Raw Story:
Severe weather threatened to put a damper on Friday on President Donald Trump’s plans to speak near Mount Rushmore in South Dakota, prompting amusement from internet critics who said it seemingly indicated “god is angry.” Trump was flying to South Dakota as part of a broader July 4 and America-250 trip, planning to visit the iconic American landmark for an Independence Day fireworks celebration.
Ha, of course he had to go to Mount Rushmore. He still wants his face up there even though it’s literally impossible to do. And there needs to be work done on the four that* are* there, a LOT of work, that he won’t pay for because they can’t add him. It shouldn’t matter because it would be taxpayer money, not his personal gazillionaire stash, most of which he got illegally. Remember, there is a “trust” that his sons are “running” because he’s “in office”. We know what a bunch of malarkey that is.
But Mother Nature, it seems, had other plans. A severe thunderstorm warning was in effect until 7:30 p.m. Eastern Time for the area, with quarter-sized hail that could damage vehicles, reported by the National Weather Service. “Seek shelter inside a well-built structure and stay away from windows. This storm is capable of producing large hail,” an alert from the weather service read. The weather alert forced Fox News to scramble, with host Bret Baier telling viewers they had breaking news. “They just said there is severe weather on the way. In fact, they said hail could be coming, and they are urging everybody to get inside,” said Baier, adding, “We’re going to get to shelter.”
Wow, Fox News went to shelter. Someone had an actual *thought*. What is this world coming to? On the other hand, hail is not something to ignore. A quarter is not exactly small. And it’s coming down from quite a height, so being in a vehicle is likely not a smart idea either. Wish I’d known about this before because I could have said, “OH HAIL YES!” It might have been true as opposed to when it’s a euphemism. Well, darn.
The setback prompted mockery from onlookers, with Ron Filipkowski, editor-in-chief of the progressive MeidasTouch news outlet, quipping on X, “God is angry.” //// Dan Koh, a Massachusetts Democrat running for Congress, chimed in on X, “Considering Trump wants to cut the National Park Service budget by 40% and Mount Rushmore has a $57m repair backlog, you better run.” //// The progressive influencer account known as Polly Sigh added: “Calamitous weather seems to follow Trump around these days. Mother Nature is so over him.” //// Writer Joe Flood joked, “damn antifa!” //// Trump has had mixed luck with weather in recent weeks, with scorching temperatures and rain derailing his Great American State Fair.
But it seems everything came out okay. There was nothing further after this news. Mother Nature really is over Trump. He won’t listen when she tells him about climate change, so now she’s trying to show him. That probably won’t work either. But oh, she has been trying! More power to her. Don’t mess with Mother Nature.
See you soon!
Friends, I know everybody begs you for money. I promise you that, of all the outlets bugging you for spare change, we are the smallest and the hardest-working. We’re a bunch of old, disabled people, except for one writer in his mid-50s. But the rest of us are in our sixties and seventies, and this is a labor of love. All we’re asking for is the ability to continue our quest to tell the truth about Trump and help ensure democracy survives. If you can help, please do. Thank you. Ursula
