Biden, whether from spite or dementia, has ignored Texas
By Andrea Widburg

Over a week after a massive storm hit, Texas is slowly warming up, the snow is melting, and power is returning. What Texas hasn’t seen is President Biden. Instead, he’s been enjoying an easy schedule, playing computer games with his granddaughter while Kamala Harris handles the phone calls to foreign leaders. If he were a Republican, rather than a Democrat, the media would be castigating him as the worst leader ever. Instead, though, the media is praising him for not showing up, lest he look too much like Trump.

The Valentine’s Day storm that hit Texas wasn’t the worst snowstorm ever, but it was certainly one of the worst storms to hit a state that always does things in a big way. Immediately after the storm hit, 4 million people were without power, and almost half the state’s population without reliably safe drinking water. Roughly 35 people died in Texas because of the storm.

A reader sent us pictures from a major grocery store in central Texas, showing that the shelves were stripped as bare as they were during the height of lockdown panic last year:

There are too many Mexicans there for him to feel comfortable.

Why either or? I think it's because of both spite and dementia, the one constant with Biden both before and after dementia is that he is a mean spiteful person which meshes nicely with the anger many dementia patients exhibit. Maybe one of the biggest reasons they call an early lid and put Biden into hidin is because he becomes to hostile and once they medicate him he is completely non functional.

I'd usually give him hell for this, but Emergency Responders, FEMA et. al, don't really need an Alzheimers patient wandering around.

Demented or fully there, Emergency Responders don't need a President and his security entourage interfering with their work. That's as true now as it was when Bush overflew the areas hit by Katrina.

I'm gonna go with spite.  We saw Obama act the same way with the Texas wild fires five years ago and with Kentucky after the ice storms shut down the entire state in 2009.

Both deep red states both have Republican senators and republican majorities in their delegations to DC.

This is a continuation of the Obama policy of punishing Red states when they need Federal assistance after a natural disaster.

That's a very interesting observation, first time I've heard it suggested.
It makes a lot of sense...

...he got lost touring the Coconut Mall and didn't realize Texas was a state until much later in the week.

It was neither. It took some thought on somebody's part to pick out 74 Counties to send aid to, and which Counties to shaft.

Large cities' counties, except for the oil-producing Permian Basin area.
