It’s Biden’s fault.
It’s the Black mayor’s fault.
It had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that a ship crashed into and structurally compromised it until it failed. Nothing at all. That played no role.
Should we design our bridges to be able to withstand these types of incidents? Ok - sounds like we’re gonna have to raise the budget for…checks notes infrastructure. Has anyone thought of that recently? Anyone at all?
