President Joe Biden finally pulled away from sunbathing on Rehoboth Beach and a planned weeklong vacation in Lake Tahoe to deal with the community of Lahaina that has been hit by the most devastating wildfire in history. modern history of the United States.
It was a total disaster.
The most egregious offense was telling a sociopathic lie about a 2004 fire that started in his kitchen after a lightning strike that was put out in about twenty minutes.
Biden says “Jill and I have a little bit of a sense of what it’s like to lose a house” and then tells the story of when lightning struck his house in 2004 and says, “I almost lost my ’67 Corvette and my cat.”

“I almost lost my ’67 Corvette and my cat,” he said, completely deaf to the suffering.
But even his obscenely cheerful tale was based on a fabrication. It was quickly brought under control, the Associated Press reports.
“Luckily, we got it pretty early,” the fire chief said at the time. “The fire was under control in 20 minutes.”
Joe Biden thought he could twist a story about a small kitchen fire nearly two decades ago to link it to the loss of nearly a thousand people, now believed to be at least 480 dead.
But that wasn’t all Joe Biden said to bring the Maui wildfires on himself. He had to come up with his signature story of losing a wife and son in the early 1970s.

Despite media reports of approximately 100 deaths from the fires, locals estimate that at least 480 people died, Collin Rugg noted.
“I know there are at least 480 dead here on Maui and I don’t understand why they are [the authorities] it doesn’t say that,” said a local.
According to local reports, hundreds of children are missing. That’s all Biden had to say about it in his remarks.
“Imagine being a parent wondering where your child is, where is he,” Biden said. “I remember it, like I said. You know, press reports of grandparents crying for lost neighbors while trying to be strong for those who survived. Of a woman handing out clothes to survivors who says she didn’t lose her home , but he lost his hometown.”
This was. Biden also told inappropriate jokes. “Get your boots out here? This is hot ground, man,” he joked.

But despite the anger and heartbreak of Maui residents, Joe Biden was apparently sleeping through an event a day later.

If this were a Republican administration, Joe Biden would be taking the coals in the media, just like George Bush during Hurricane Katrina and Donald Trump during Hurricane Harvey. But none of these presidents lied about the hurricane, joked about it, or fell asleep while a grieving community shared their loss and heartbreak.
