Do you think Trump cares if *other* people get help after natural disasters? Cenk Uygur, Ben Mankiewicz, John Iadarola, and Michael Shure, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. http://www.tytnetwork.com/join

"While you were watching the President of the United States shirk his nation's responsibility to lead on the fundamental moral issue of our time, there was an interesting development: Hurricane season kicked off. Yes, that annual period when the American Southeast is most likely to get pelted with the fiercest storms the Atlantic has to offer. And because Everything Is Fine, we're starting off the season without agency heads for FEMA or NOAA.

There's no reason for worry, though. The latter—the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration—oversees the National Hurricane Center and the National Weather Service, which provide hurricane forecasts and warnings ahead of a storm. There can't be hurricanes if we can't see them coming. And even if one does slip through, the Federal Emergency Management Agency won't have anyone demanding that we "respond" or "help with relief efforts." It'll be like it never happened.”*
