Why Trump visited Ohio and why he waited so long?

First of all, it is not usually a good optic to be photographed at a "train wreck".

Secondly, Ohio is Trump country. Although most of them do not understand what and how Trump did away with all the Obama regulations when he came into the White House. Included in those regulations were those that monitored the safety of the rail cars.

Trump waited to see if that story took "legs" before he decided to visit the site of the wreck.

Also, he is trying to maintain the appearance of a legitimate presidential candidate. He came in with a large entourage of black SUV's, as if he was the present leader of this country. But, there were almost as many people in his entourage as were in the crowds. His appeal has dwindled to almost nothing. He has become a caricature of himself.

He hoped to spark his presidential campaign but it looked like a quick dying ember.

He will attempt to keep up the appearances until he is indicted. He feels protected by his political status, as a former president.

But, it appears the hammer is about to fall.

Im going to guess he waited, under the false delusion, that your precious demorat leaders would do something.

So when did President Pudding show up? Oh yeah. Never.

So when did Mayor Butt-Plug shop up? Finally, today?

STFU.

I see they're sticking with the deregulation argument, even though as far as I can tell, it's meritless.

I was thinking of the dems' favorite four words: "Nothing is our fault."

In the most direct sense, the accident wasn't their fault, but the response (or lack thereof), and their failure to undo Trump's deregulation (if that was even relevant) is.

If im not mistaken, and im not sure where I read it, but the train didnt even qualify for the type of braking system that the DUmmys are having a conniption over. I believe that it was determined the problem was a worn out bearing? So the blame would lie with whomever does the maintenance.

They are simply barking up the wrong tree. And, slinging feces with hope that it sticks. Meanwhile President Puddings admin. is showing their true colors, in regards to not caring.

They have detection systems for the bearings. I might be that they are too far apart along ght tracks.

Well then. I googled it and came across this CNN article. Had no idea that they could detect hot bearings.

https://www.cnn.com/2023/02/25/us/ohio-train-derailment-bearing-vibration/index.html#:~:text=A%20preliminary%20report%20from%20the,caused%20the%20train%20to%20derail.

It wasn’t until a further 20 miles down the tracks, as the train reached East Palestine, that a hot box detector recorded the bearing’s temperature at 253 degrees above ambient and sent an alarm message instructing the crew to slow and stop the train to inspect a hot axle, the report said.

Learn something new everyday.

To put it bluntly, lurking DUmbasses, SOMEBODY had to act presidential, and by that time it had become evident that it sure as hell wasn't going to be #JoeThePedophile...  :whatever:

Dear DUmmies:

NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy:

"The wheel bearing failed on car number 23. So even with ECP brakes, the derailment would have occurred."

NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy:

"The ECP braking rule would’ve applied ONLY to HIGH HAZARD FLAMMABLE TRAINS. The train that derailed in East Palestine was a MIXED FREIGHT TRAIN containing only 3 placarded Class 3 flammable liquids cars."


Homendy serves in the BIDEN administration.

Suck it, losers.

She is very brave, coming out and undermining the one talking point the dems have in this matter (granted, it's not a very good one).
