Maybe this hurricane season will be the one where red state voters look around what’s left of their roofless, uninsured houses and see no one from the federal government coming to help, and say to each other, hey, y’all, I’m starting to think maybe these Republicans are a bunch of grifters who are actively making everything worse!"</p><p><a href="https://toad.social/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/DOGE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DOGE</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/NOAA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NOAA</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/FEMA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FEMA</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/tornadoes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tornadoes</span></a><br>/2</p>
