Biden’s trip to visit the island of Maui following a disastrous wildfire has left the country outraged.
The trip only happened 13 DAYS AFTER the wildfire took place.
And the people of Maui were furious.
While Biden enjoyed his luxury vacation.
The people of Maui were picking up the wreckage of the fire, dealing with the loss of lives and of their homes.
When Biden arrived on the island, people were furious.
Check out this video of Biden’s ‘warm’ welcome to the island:
🚨 Maui residents gave Joe Biden a warm welcome to Hawaii today.
“Here he comes after 13 days.”
“F*CK YOU”

And people genuinely believe this old man won the 2020 election?
Let’s turn it over to our friends at Fox News:
Conservative commentator Robby Starbuck wrote, “Imagine your loved one burned to death less than a month ago and when Biden finally visits after his TWO vacations, he jokes around about how hot the ground is. Sick.”
“Read the room my guy,” conservative commentator Steve Guest implored.
“Dear Lord, let this just be the senility,” RedState writer Bonchie tweeted.
Fellow RedState writer Buzz Patterson commented, “Can’t take him anywhere.”
Fox News Radio host Jimmy Failla joked, “Biden landed in Maui and made a joke about how hot the ground was. Up next he’ll head to Pearl Harbor and order a round of Kamikaze’s.”
Townhall contributor John Hasson noticed a pattern:
“Maui: ‘Biden jokes about how hot the ground is’ Nashville shooting: ‘Biden makes ice cream joke’ Afghanistan: ‘Biden jokes about evacuation’ I’m sensing a theme here.”
After the video went viral, White House deputy press secretary and senior communications adviser Andrew Bates pushed back against the criticism, calling it “classless and stupid.”
“He’s petting one of the dogs that’s working hard searching for remains so survivors who’ve lost loved ones can have closure. This criticism is classless and stupid,” Bates responded.
Biden has been criticized for his response to the wildfires. Most notably, he originally replied on Aug. 14 that he had “no comment” on the rising death toll in the area. The next day, Biden revealed that he and First Lady Jill Biden were planning on visiting Hawaii “as soon as we can.”
The fact that Biden compared his ‘house fire’ back in ’04 to the wildfires of Maui is insanity.
Mind you, the supposed fire where his house burned down was a mild kitchen fire.
A fire where he didn’t even lose his house.
Biden says "Jill and I have a little sense of what it's like to lose a home" and then tells the story of when lightning struck his house in 2004 and says "I almost lost my '67 corvette and my cat."
According to a report from the time, the lighting strike caused "a small fire… pic.twitter.com/V8IBfoZuEW

There is no chance for Biden in the 2024 presidential election.
The world is looking at this man and wondering, “this is my president?”

I’m sure the people of Maui speaking about their hardships is just not entertaining enough for Joe.
He’s probably dreaming of being back on the beach.
The New York Post has more on the story:
President Biden is facing brutal backlash for a quip about a Maui cadaver dog that went viral just hours into his disastrous visit to the site of the deadly wildfires — with critics blasting his ill-timed attempts at comic relief as “poor taste.”
“You guys catch the boots out here? That’s a hot ground, man,” Biden, 80, joked while petting a cadaver dog, Dexter, and chatting with first responders in Lahaina in a video shared by self-proclaimed “news breaker” Greg Price Monday evening.
The president, who owns two German Shepherds, turned to the media and gestured at the small boots attached to Dexter’s paws.
Last week, Hawaii Gov. Josh Green noted that recovery efforts in the worst-hit areas took time in part because the search dogs could only work for about 15 minutes at a time before their feet overheated.
Biden’s comment elicited smiles and laughs from the crowd, but quickly drew ire on social media, where the president is already catching heat for apparently making light of the devastating blazes after initially refusing to comment on the disaster for several days.
“Bro is sightseeing and trying to be comic relief for the tour. No sense of what has happened there at all,” a “homeschool dad” whose Twitter bio describes himself as a MAGA conservative wrote.
Another account blasted the hot ground remark as “poor taste,” while a third chimed in that the octogenarian reminded them of Mr. Burns from “The Simpsons.”
I think Mr. Burns is a good comparison to Biden.
Yet, Mr. Burns was still cognitive in the Simpsons and knew what he was saying.

Despite sending $100B+ to Ukraine, Biden is only giving $700 a household to Maui residents impacted by the fires.

I’m sure Biden’s campaign team is shooting themselves in the foot over this.
I can’t wait to see how they try to spin this.
Oh, but let’s keep funneling money to Ukraine while the people of Maui suffer and have their land bought up by Soros and his cronies.
