Biden, After Lounging On Beach, Says ‘No Comment’ On Deadliest Wildfire In Modern U.S. History
Daily Wire ^ | Aug 14, 2023 | By Hank Berrien •

Posted on 08/14/2023 9:56:21 AM PDT by Red Badger

Joe Biden, who has often been hailed by the Left as a decent, compassionate person, was at the beach in Delaware on Sunday when asked about the enormous tragedy in Maui, where the deadliest wildfire in the U.S. in the last 100 years has now claimed at least 96 lives and possibly more. According to Democrat Hawaii Governor Josh Green, the damage from the fires that utterly ravaged the historic town of Lahaina could amount to $6 billion.

The compassionate response from the president as he was leaving the beach? “No comment.”

Biden is the same man who bragged on Twitter in February 2020, when he was running for president, “Empathy matters. Compassion matters. We have to reach out to one another and heal this country — and that’s what I’ll do as president.”

In that same tweet, Biden showed himself saying, “When you have a real problem and it’s devastating to you and someone comes up and says, ‘I know how you feel,’ but someone comes up to you and says, ‘I’ve been through this. I can tell you I know how you feel,’ you immediately say, ‘Tell me,’ because all people are looking for is to say, ‘You made it.’ You look at them and you say intuitively,’ I guess there’s a way through. I guess I can make this; I guess I can make it.’”

In April of this year, Joe Biden told a group of kids, “I have six grandchildren. And I’m crazy about them. And I speak to them every single day.”

By early July, Biden still was unwilling to publicly acknowledge his seventh grandchild, four-year-old Navy Joan Roberts, prompting social media to rip him.

“You can just feel the empathy and decency oozing,” The Spectator’s Stephen Miller said pointedly, referring to the Left’s constant attempts to portray Biden as empathetic and their consistent description of him as a decent man.

“Biden claims to be a devoted ‘family man,’ but his persistent refusal to acknowledge his granddaughter’s existence raises troubling questions about his capacity for human kindness and paternal love,” Joe Gabriel Simonson of the Washington Free Beacon wrote.

The deadliest fire in U.S. history prior to the Maui fires was the 2018 Camp Fire in California, which killed 85 people.

Just imagine what the press would say if Trump made that comment.

I think he had already declared a disaster in Hawaii.

If nothing else why wouldn’t he have mentioned that he’s already declared Hawaii a disaster area?

If nothing else why not express compassion for the victims?

Is he that programmed, or controlled ,or out of it, that he cannot make a spontaneous comment about a tragedy like this?

Can’t say I blame him.

Probably doesn’t know where Hawaii is anymore, and thinks it’s a red state full of brownies from India who have taken over the 7-elevens and Circle-Ks.

One of two things, either the Dems are certain of their election rigging, or Joe Biden will bow out of 2024:

President Joe Biden is scheduled to be in Lake Tahoe at the end of the week.

According to the week ahead guidance released from the White House on Monday morning, the president is slated to arrive in Lake Tahoe on Friday, August 18 where he will stick around until the following Thursday.

64% (almost 2 to 1) for Biden so he no doubt thinks there’s nothing to worry about...

Wildfire? LOL! does anyone really believe that?

Why is the same police chief who covered up Las Vegas now the new one over there? Just one more coincidence in a world of coincidences.

The deadliest fire in U.S. history prior to the Maui fires was the 2018 Camp Fire in California, which killed 85 people.


Perhaps in the 21st century, but the fire at Peshtigo, Wisc. killed thousands and hundred died the same day in Chicago. over 500 killed in the Coconut Grove fire...apparently no one does research anymore.

No, the only thing he cares about is himself and, because he will be croaking soon, leaving a vast illicit fortune to his corrupt family.

Biden actually said “My son did nothing wrong” but they edited it.
