Donald Trump huffed and puffed online after Maryland Gov. Wes Moore challenged him to walk the streets of his state.
The 79-year-old president lashed out on Truth Social on Sunday at Moore’s “nasty and provocative” invitation three days earlier to join him for some light cardio in Baltimore, calling the city a “crime disaster” and threatening to deploy National Guard troops.
Trump was so angry about the public safety walk invitation that he suggested he may pull federal support for rebuilding the city’s Francis Scott Key Bridge, which collapsed last year.
1 it’s not his money. He didn’t pay anything.
2 he should be saying our counties legislative system will make the Dali’s insurance pay for the damages and/or ask Congress to set laws that restrict any shipping vessel large enough to cause such damages carry insurance that can pay for the full extent of their damages or they aren’t able to ship to our ports.
That would up shipping costs, sure. But isn’t that what his administration wants, less international trade and forcing the country to become less dependent on foreign countries?
Oops oil, coal, gas costs went up, and long term it yet again would be cheaper for local renewable energy. As 40% of shipping is just bringing oil/coal/gas from one port to another. When the solar panels are in your state, county, city, neighborhood, or on your property, “shipping costs” drop drastically.
Someone crashed into a power line, entire blocks/neighborhoods could go down, except if those solar panels are on your roof, maybe just switch to your batteries and have localized power till the power comes back on, then switch it back to the grid. Tornado destroys 5 houses, bring what you need to your neighbors after and still have a refrigerator and air conditioning while you sort out what to do next in heat that’s only getting worse.
The people who think that people aren’t accelerating global warming still usually accept the idea that the planet is getting warmer.
