Buttigieg blames Trump. How trite

@hippyjoe1955 Thanks for the bc!

@BizSuitStacy Well it was a toss between your comment that made sense and the other braindead commenter that thought a rule about brakes would have prevented a derailment. I wonder if said braindead commenter has ever even seen a train track?

@tindrummer so whose fault is it? Obama brought in a rule and nothing changed. Trump took out that rule and nothing changed. Biden didn't do anything and the train fell off its track.

@hippyjoe1955 See Elwood's comment below.

@tindrummer So Biden has had over 2 years to change the rule. Whose fault is that? Secondly do you honestly think that the rule of Obama would have prevented an over heated bearing?

@Nanoose Then you better get ready to sue Timken and the owner of the tank car...

@Nanoose What do you think the bearings run on? Here's a hint (The AXLE!!!) Yes it likely could have been prevented had the car been regularly serviced and the wheel bearings changed on a regular basis. Neither of which have anything to do with politicians or government rules.

@Nanoose So which Trump deregulation led to this accident?

@ElwoodBlues now let's see if h j responds and what utter bs it'll be if he does

@ElwoodBlues I would bet that Trump made money by revering the electronic brake rule. The train companies claimed it would cost them over 3 billion dollars to follow the new Obama brake rules. And I bet that's when Trumps hand went out and he promised to reverse the rule if they greased his palm. Cheers!

@Nanoose So when you gonna start putting the blame for the accident where it belongs?

@ElwoodBlues Guess I am not alone in my diagnosis.
[quote]NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy says the brake rule 'would not have prevented' the East Palestine derailment.

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

@hippyjoe1955 Wow, you found a bureaucrat covering her butt!
Isn't that AMAZING!!! Aren't you the guy who tells us never trust the government? [b]ROTFL!!![/b]

@ElwoodBlues You mentioned the NTSB and its report. I posted a quote by the NTSB's head. She was being interviewed on CNN at the time. She is correct. A wheel bearing failure will cause a derailment that no braking regulation would have prevented. Then there is the small matter of the decision to burn the contents of the tanks rather than drain them. This was more than possible since the tanks containing the chemicals were not breached in the derailment. Your fearless leader Buttegieg is a bit a dud. Maybe you should stop listening to democrat talking points and actually get out in the real world. You might actually learn something for once.

@dakotaviper The democrats are paid traitors to the US. They are hell bent on destroying everything there is about the US that makes it a nation. They are also trying to do the same with Russia.

@hippyjoe1955 Don't forget about Canada. Two things different about Canada and the USA is our Border and our Governments. Otherwise, we're not much different.

@dakotaviper Canada never became its own nation. It simply transferred ownership from the UK to the US and now to the WEF. Nobody here seems to notice.
