Obviously it’s crazy and stupid to be placing blame on anyone - esp. this early - for the bridge collapse.

I live less than 1 from it and it’s strange seeing all the coverage of a local area.

Anyway what does have a lot of people upset here (including on local conservative talk radio) was this statement from the White House:

“This doesn’t mean there was a risk of failure, but if an inspection report identifies deficiencies, the state is responsible for taking corrective actions,” he said. The bridge was 40 years old.”

35W is a FEDERAL Interstate, moreover the construction crews that were working on it when it collapsed were federal contractors from GA, NOT MN.

Just was a really ignorant thing to say that I’m sure they will have to claify and backtrack on.
