I guess some bailouts are simply ignored by the MAGA crowd?

Especially when the orchestrator of the bailout is their presidential hopeful in 2024

Trump rips DeSantis, calls Florida legislation a ‘bailout’ for insurance industry

Former President Donald Trump blasted Gov. Ron DeSantis for wanting to give insurance companies widespread protections from lawsuits, calling it “the worst Insurance Scam in the entire Country!”

Taking to Truth Social just after midnight, Trump said Thursday Floridians are getting “crushed” by their insurance companies.

“Ron DeSanctimonious is delivering the biggest insurance company BAILOUT to Globalist Insurance Companies, IN HISTORY,” Trump wrote. “He’s also crushed Florida homeowners whose houses were destroyed in the Hurricane — They’re getting pennies on the dollar.”

DeSantis has supported House Bill 837, one of the priorities of House Speaker Paul Renner, R-Palm Coast, and the companion Senate Bill 236. That legislation would make it harder for Floridians to sue their insurance companies. The bills are being fast-tracked through the Legislature this year

Trump also appeared to criticize DeSantis’ insurance commissioners, who approve rate increases. Former Commissioner David Altmaier stepped down in December and took a job this week as an insurance industry lobbyist.

“His Insurance Commissioner does NOTHING, while Florida’s lives are ruined,” Trump wrote. “This is the worst Insurance Scam in the entire Country!”
 
Trump is getting desperately pathetic but he's still a better President than Pedo Joe.
 
No...LOL

New keyboard with integrated mouse pad keeps changing the font size
Too damn sensitive...like you 🤣

Anyone want to address the actual issue?

DeSantis folded and served his masters instead of helping Floridians

These partisans don’t know what to think. No ideology. Just root for the home team.

When I was a kid, insurance companies were like casinos. They made money most of the time and occasionally they had to pay out. Now when someone hits big, like getting THEIR WHOLE LIFE DESTROYED BY A HURRICANE, they catfish on it, try to find loopholes, then bitch up and pay where they can't get out of it, then hike rates and cry to the government.

Screw them and the people that enable them.

I literally have no idea what either of you are talking about.

We may agree on this subject...perhaps not??? We'll never know I guess. 😂

Even more hilarious? You're ignoring me while I simply don't read his posts. Yet here we are.

I'm laughing like a drunken idiot tbh.

Agree to some extent...but we also have more people bilking that system than we used to in the good ole' casino days, as you referred to them.

I'm not a fan of the insurance industry nor the crooks who steal from it...which is paid for by the rest of us. For damn sure the insurance companies aren't just going to lose money year over year.

When "conservatives" have no ability to govern they just give and declare the problem unsolvable...SMH

Has anyone seen a defense of DeSantis's "solution" to the insurance problem from ANYONE?


Didn't think so
 
Valid. Nobody used to buy all the siding sell it at 400 percent markup either.

Yikes...good point and you brushed up against a partial solution. That solution brushed up against "price controls" which, just typing the words, made me throw up in my mouth a little bit.

In a state of emergency, some price controls seem reasonable. There's that throw up again. 🤢

In periods of unrest or natural disasters, unfortunately some authoritarian actions are warranted.

Agreed. One caveat...

If company A incurs cost X to rush product Y to me after a natural disaster, I have no issue with them recouping those losses...within reason of course.

Not allowing such would disincentivize company A from rushing those goods to me which helps no one and hurts everyone.

Obviously you pay what you owe including compensation for their time and manpower.

Your discussion really has nothing to do with the main problem of property insurance in Florida or DeSantis actions regarding it...

But by all means carry on 🤣
 
Did you have a another meeting of The Circle Jerk boys? 🤣

Newsflash...I don't post here to converse with the likes of you

But it is funny to read your illogical conservative crap
You know like supporting an idiot who sided with big business over the citizens of Florida

Sounds just like the type of idiot conservatives support

No, it's Friday. On Friday we have waffles.

I should hope not, that would be a high level of masochism even for you.

But it is funny to read your illogical conservative crap

Glad I could help.

So you missed the post where I said screw the insurance companies and those who enable them?

You're getting really bad at this Ray.

Once again Ray, not a conservative.

😊
 
It doesn't really matter if you call yourself a conservative...you support their ideas don't you?

Or did you not say you would LOVE to blame something on being "woke" but just not in the singular case of SVB?
Just itching to blame "woke policies" on something...anything 🤣

So do you believe CRT is a legitimate legal theory?
Or do you think racism wasn't a part of the design of the laws of this country?

If not explain how slavery, reconstruction, Jim Crow and segregation were not examples of institutionalized racism and why it should not be taught in history classes

Aint nobody talkin to you, Ray. This is a shovels and rakes conversation.

No hoes allowed.

To be friend of Ray's you'd have to be a sycophant. Any deviation from his opinion is blasphemy. He has a very high opinion of his opinion and I bet he's a blast at parties.
 
typical conservative response...

Love to ask questions, rarely have the guts to answer them

Evilwayz wants to say he supports some conservative ideas but when asked about one that he's already commented on...No answer

Because I'm not getting sucked into your bullshit, Ray. I have zero interest in clarifying my position because you have zero interest in understanding it.

Have a nice weekend. 😘

You are a wise man. Wiser than I am...or was.

Dude is an attention whore with zero interest is gaining an understanding of anything that he didn't think of first.
 
Reading comprehension is your friend Ray.

I don't want to be suckered into your bullshit.

Can't bring yourself to state what you believe in?
I feel sorry for you

Are you in favor of teaching history like Rosa Parks without mentioning race?

How about banning books?
Government infringing on free speech of companies?
Accepting COVID relief money?
Denying medicare expansion?
Being for COVID vaccines before being against them?

You're free to agree or disagree with anything...

We all know what the conservative positions are on these topics already

He didn't used to be. He used to hit and run and tell us he went to the club or a bachelor party or what have you.

He's just angry all the time now.

No point in trolling someone who's already pissed off.

He is an angry little dude...seething at times. Like right here because you won't play with him.

I've seen this with toddlers but I have to say, it's rare with adults.

We had migrated away from discussing DeSantis's action on the insurance problems in Florida to Evilwayz comment that he doesn't identify as a conservative.

I said OK but his posts seem to be ideas that are "conservative" even though he doesn't consider himself to be.

Asking him to comment on anything was met with he wasn't going to be "suckered" into a "bullshit" discussion

I took that to mean if we discussed any topic of his choosing it probably a conservative viewpoint which he was desperately trying to say wasn't true

I guess we'll never know because he took his ball and went home rather than discuss a topic
