Oh no it'll be fun.

He'll get rid of FEMA, and just throw money at the states he likes. Of course the real trick is, his buddies in the States he likes will just pocket the money.

Nobody gets helped, horrible press all over the place. Lots of disenfranchised red voters.

Won't turn them blue, But they might be less likely to vote.

Fun fact, it just snowed in Houston. Surprisingly went okay. Not to defend the Texas power grid. I still had random power outages all year. But it did survive some snow. So that was nice.

They'll just pull themselves up by their... wait

B b but Trump claimed he never heard of project 2025. He wouldn't just lie to the American people right?

Maybe there are some buddies of the trump crime family that would be happy to privatize aid to disaster victims for a nice fee, and trump would like to withhold or bestow aid on States and individual officials that kiss his ass. So you bet the Left Coast won't be getting any, but Mar a Lago will get a new roof every year.

Nah, it's just really hard to steal from it without people noticing.

Yeah that's not how this plays out. This will only affect states that he wants it to to affect, and when.

I'll miss me, but also not really. I've already accepted that I'm probably gonna die before Trump is out of office—I don't know if it's better to go out in a concentration camp or some unmanaged aftermath of a natural disaster.

This 1million%

Also grew up being promised that any day now, 1) Bill Clinton will take all the guns, and 2) We'll go to FEMA camps to get gassed. It was all part of the UN Agenda 21 thing that George HW Bush/Clintons/Soros/CNN/Bill Gates and the New World Order One-World-Government are bringing.

Except none of that ever happened. Hm....were those guests on Art Bell in 1998 possibly....wrong?

And yet, 30 years later, here we are.

I think you misunderstand his goal here. This won't stop him from giving aid to the people/states who help him. This will only stop FEMA helping everyone unconditionally. He isn't trying to stop aid. He's trying to stop aid without strings attached. This is a power play.

I remember a story about a remote town that needed a bridge replaced. And the federal government was dragging their feet about it until the town wrote to the Soviet Union about helping them build the bridge.

Funds for me, not for thee.

Florida's about to be unaffordable for millions of Americans. FEMA's NFIP program had been disproportionately keeping cost of flood insurance low for millions of people in hurricane/flood regions along the Gulf coast, but now the market alone will dictate rates if FEMA is taken out of the picture.

Nah, "get rid of FEMA" has been a thing for a long while, since before 2000. The issue is FEMA looks like a giant black box that does nothing but suck money when they aren't being actively used, at least to the layperson, and when they ARE engaged with a disaster, people don't get that it's almost always local aid networks and such that actually handle distributing things because they know their town and the people who need help better than FEMA does, so they still look like all they're doing is dumping truckloads of supplies off in the middle of the area. They also buy scary things like body bags (because natural disasters tend to wind up with a lot of dead bodies), making dumb people think they have some ulterior, sinister motives (see X-Files).

The plan is to give money to states that kiss trump’s ass, and none for the blue states or cities that don’t.

Now we know where they’ll put those accused of illegal immigration.

Yeah, they're not cutting subsidies to businesses, rolling back tax breaks, or anything that affects the deep pockets. Nope. They're cutting stuff that helps people at home and abroad. Cut FEMA here, cut foreign aid. Eliminating housing and food help.
