    So no, Harris wouldn’t have stopped the flood, but she wouldn’t have stopped the flood warning either.

    This woman changing her vote would have had no effect on the outcome. Hell, the entire state flipping blue would not have changed the results.

    Also extreme weather events are significantly more frequent due to climate change

    Climate Change doesn’t stop and start with the changing of the US white house. Neither have individual administrations - even the “best” ones - curbed emissions sufficient to keep us under the 1.5C mark.

    You’d be more reasonable blaming the flooding on Bush or Obama than Trump or Biden. Hell, you’d be more reasonable blaming Saudi Arabia or China. Even then, you’re getting into “Gays Caused Katrina” territory when you try to blame individual natural disasters on long term environmental trends.

      Dude, I put it in brackets for a reason.

      Also, your logic of “one vote wouldn’t change the outcome” doesn’t excuse her for voting for the shitpants nastiest, stupidest, most deceitful, blazen rapist daughter-lusting racist fraudster you could possibly imagine.

      He’s a complete piece of shit who shits all over the constitution and shits all over the American people, and there aren’t any good excuses for her allowing him in the Whitehouse again. She is part of the decision to enable this demolition of everything helpful or useful in the USA. Stop excusing it.

        “Your kid deserves to die because you voted wrong” is biblically delusional. At this point, you’re no better than the freaks doing selfies in front of Alligator Alcatraz.

          Her kid didn’t die and I wouldn’t wish that on her, but it’s another straw man and another attempt by you to excuse bad voters from the bad consequences of their bad actions.

            The entire context of the post is her bemoaning the deaths from the flooding.

            it’s another straw man

            It’s people on the internet laughing up their sleeves at a bunch of dead children.

              Your straw men just with me so far, just in the last hour:

              • One vote would have changed the presidency
              • One state would have changed the presidency
              • Trump and/or Biden caused the flood
              • Climate change stops and starts with the changes in the Whitehouse
              • Individual weather disasters are the same as long term climate change
              • This woman’s voting record is so heinous that she deserves her children to die

              I said nothing like any of those things. You invented them all.

              I did say that she is responsible for her heinous voting record and that you shouldn’t excuse it. I did say that she is responsible for not just voting against the rapist in chief and the chum of Epstein that she’s so shocked isn’t releasing the Epstein files, but voting for him.

              How about engaging with something that I actually said for once?
