President Joe Biden did not get a warm welcome when he visited Hawaii to look at the damage from the Maui fire. At least 114 people died but the true total will be many more when all the dead are counted.
Biden gave a speech full of callous words where he said he almost lost his Corvette in a small kitchen fire years ago. That did not sit well with many residents. One said:
“Hearing Biden talk about his house that had a little fire. You almost lost your cat and your Corvette? There were children who were incinerated into ash! You f–king old man. You vile human being.”
He was met with angry protesters who waved middle fingers, shouted insults, and held signs that said “no comment” at his motorcade.
“Go home Joe!” they yelled while others held up signs that read:
“NO COMMENT.”
“REALLY $7.”
“ACTION SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS.”
“FJB.”
“Where has the president been?“ said Dennis Mullen.
🚨 Maui residents gave Joe Biden a warm welcome to Hawaii today.
“Here he comes after 13 days.”
“F*CK YOU”
