To be fair, walking across a flooded road is dangerous as hell. manhole covers get lifted and people fall in and drown.
Not to say this isn't BS reporting. But do take care walking during floods.
Thats why you often see emergency crews evacuating walking along with people in inflatables

ProfessorSnugglesworth
I watched this live while at work. My boss was standing in front trying to give a speech but no one was listening because we were laughing.

I figured the direction at least was to shield the mic from being overwhelmed with draft noise (blowing into the mic).
redloki55
I mean, it looks like he is properly bracing for the direction in the gif, what is wrong other than trying to stand still versus walking?

Yeah you don’t brace facing the wind with a leg forward, you brace with a leg back like he did.
BentwanJameson
Glad I'm not the only one that noticed the plants blowing the opposite direction he's facing.

MusterTheRohirrim
Maybe stop watching cable news and read a newspaper then? All of my sources feel very grounded and reliable.
Which do you suggest? New York Times (left leaning)? Wall Street Journal (right-leaning)? They are subject to the same biases
A slight lean is not the same thing as "race-baiting and hate mongering". If that's all you're seeing, you're absolutely using low-quality >

Do you legitimately believe that the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal are unreliable? It's a serious question.

Maybe stop watching cable news and read a newspaper then? All of my sources feel very grounded and reliable.

Which do you suggest? New York Times (left leaning)? Wall Street Journal (right-leaning)? They are subject to the same biases
MusterTheRohirrim
A slight lean is not the same thing as "race-baiting and hate mongering". If that's all you're seeing, you're absolutely using low-quality >

> sources.

Do you legitimately believe that the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal are unreliable? It's a serious question.

I also like Trump. Everyone's selling something- especially in media. They need you to buy opinions, or they become worthless.

It just seems like - on every front - everything he criticizes is something he's doing even worse.

Trump doesn't call out the media b/c he cares about integrity though; all he cares about is what's being said about him, and he will (1/2)
stupiddevotchka
support lies in the media so long as they are in his favor. Just sayin'. (2/2)

I can find common ground with just about anyone. Just because we vote for diff ppl doesn't make either of us an idiot. Not 'Murican btw.

Puppies...puppies are always common ground.
