"SNIP............
President-elect Donald Trump offered fresh criticism early Sunday of the officials in charge of fighting the Los Angeles wildfires, calling them incompetent and asking why the blazes were not yet extinguished, the New York Times reports.
Said Trump: The fires are still raging in L.A. The incompetent pols have no idea how to put them out.

Some of the lost water pressure was because, once houses had burnt to the ground, water was coming out of pipes on its own. They are now running around and capping those water pipes in destroyed homes and businesses so they stop leaking water.

(51,706 posts)Putin is evil by design. He knows he is evil but he has evil goals. He is the one with the faint smile and the tented fingers and looking out at the world from lowered head.
tRump is evil by incompetence. He is the mouth breather with the accordion hands. He knows he hurts people but he thinks it's okay, just doing business, "everybody does it", what's the big deal, they are just weak unless they are his oppressed white male supporters. There is a component of his legal defenses where you can see him driving it from a stand of "What I do? What I do?" He is evil because he lets himself be used by people he is using for his purposes. He is evil because he wields great power all directed for self-aggrandizement and knows he's irresponsible and doesn't care.
I could go on, but won't.
