I think you're misinterpreting what most are saying. They don't necessarily mean (at least I don't) that if the statues wouldn't have come down, the pumps would have been fixed.

It's simply pointing to the city's misappropriation of funds.

Now that the pumps have to be fixed, well it would've been nice to have that money, especially when Mitch says "oh we have to suspend other projects around the city to fix these pumps."

Eta: and not to mention apparently this was known quite some time ago, yet the city chose to ignore it and focus on the much more important statues. Again, it's about priorities.

i hope that pandering pile of shite is shitting his pants right now. every single car and house that floods is directly his fault. mr president of the s&wb who didn't do SHITTTTTTTT for the last 7 years.

im sorry, but if youre in charge for 7 years, and are the de-facto head of a department, it is YOUR responsibility to know what is going on in that department. it is YOUR responsibility for making sure everything is up to par. ESPECIALLY if your fricking city is a damn bowl surrounded by water and smack dab in the middle of hurricane central.

frick mitch the bitch. i love that he sees his national ambitions drowning in front of him due to his glaring and obvious malfeasance in office. hes an absolute failure and has done absolutely zero good for new orleans as a whole. nothing but a pandering pile of shite.
