What's the federal response to a natural disaster? Depends on where it is now. Blue states won't get FEMA funding. Trump has said so.
What's the media response to a natural disaster? Depends on where it is now, and who's reporting on it. Conservitard media will spend all of its energy blaming liberals/Democrats for whatever happened in blue states.
What is our standing in the world? We used to be peacemakers; we used to help settle disputes; we used to help nations in need. Now, our leader-to-be has expressed his desire to forcibly annex territory from five different countries (so far); Elon has said he will cut off all foreign aid to everybody; the world is regarding us with worry and fear.
Most of all, and worst of all, the rule of law no longer applies. A multiple felon, rapist, and thief not only will escape ANY punishment, he will assume the highest office in the land. An evil criminal will be our leader.
And half of our country thinks that all the above is a good thing.
