President Joe Biden is under intense scrutiny for his response to the devastating fires that struck Maui two weeks ago and residents aren’t afraid to show their frustrations.
Biden Being Criticised
President Joe Biden’s handling of the catastrophic fires that swept through Maui two weeks ago has come under intense scrutiny, with criticism mounting over his response to the tragedy that claimed over 114 lives and left more than 850 individuals still missing.
‘No Comment’
The controversy ignited when Biden was asked for words of encouragement for the fire victims, to which he offered the disheartening retort of “no comment.”
Was Too Busy On Vacation
The situation was further exacerbated by the fact that he made this response while vacationing on a Delaware beach, fueling public frustration and outrage.
Doesn’t Pay His Own People
Adding fuel to the fire, Biden’s decision to allocate $700 per family in aid to the fire-affected Hawaiians on the same day he authorized an additional $200 million in aid to Ukraine seemed to be the nail in the coffin.
Public Anger Intensified
This contrast in resource allocation intensified public anger and sparked discussions about the priorities of the administration.
Biden Finally Came to Maui
Around two weeks after the devastating fires, Biden decided to visit the impacted area on Maui. However, his reception was far from warm and welcoming.
People Were Giving Him the Finger
Instead of the traditional “aloha” greeting, he was met with a chorus of jeers, curses, and numerous middle finger gestures.
Outrage Was Captured on Video
This was captured on video, with one observer fervently narrating the event, excitedly exclaiming, “I got it on video! Residents flipping off Joe Biden!”
Thumbs-Down When His Motorcade Passed
The Daily Caller reported that as Biden’s motorcade passed through the area, people lined the route, displaying thumbs-down gestures and waving pro-Trump flags.
People Are Incredibly Frustrated
The contrast in reaction from the public showcases the deep-seated frustrations and disappointments that many individuals felt towards Biden’s administration.
His ‘Rambling’ Was Also Criticized
In a speech that some described as “rambling,” Biden touched briefly on the devastation caused by the fires before delving into a lengthy personal anecdote about the tragic loss of his first wife and daughter in a car accident in 1972.
His Lack of Empathy Didn’t Go Unnoticed
While attempting to shift the focus towards rebuilding and collaboration, his words seemed to resonate poorly among the grieving locals, causing further disconnect between his message and the sentiments of the people.
‘No Aloha For Joe Biden’
As one island resident aptly articulated, “MAUI has NO aloha for Joe Biden!”
Hawaii Is Usually a Blue State
