re: OMB! OMB! OMB! Trump Boat Parade Appears to Sink Nearby Vessel

The waves are pretty bad but shouldn’t have sunk a ski boat like that if the operator knew what he was doing. Either his engine quit, he had a leak already which caused it to list and the waves finished it, or he didn’t know how to drive in waves. It’s tricky to drive in those type of waves you better know how to handle them

Call me crazy, but that boat looked a bit overloaded...

Trump should do a Rally on the Water! It would be an amazing site seeing all those boats tie up for a Trump speech.
He should do it on board his super yacht off the coast of Florida

My lib friend went to Oregon last week and he said that he’s never seen more Trump Pence signs. Way more than Louisiana. FWIW

All of the posters on Reddit were seizing this story and masturbating furiously at the thought of a Trump boat drowning a family.
It should be pointed out to the clowns on Reddit the family didn't drown and the family had insurance. Isn't that their retort for arson and looting?

Couldn't have happened in a better place. Was that boat flying a Biden flag?

That must have been a really older model boat. All boat manufacturers are now required by the Coast Guard to install enough flotation to keep the boat afloat even under swamped conditions.

Yep, It's called level floatation...
It looked like a wake boarding boat... I wonder if the ballast were filled with water aiding in the sinking?

My favorite comment and exactly what I was thinking.

Also I don’t understand why the adults were just standing in the boat as it’s sinking screaming bloody murder. Put fricking life vests on and jump out you’re not dying.

Nice edit in the video that doesn’t show you what happened. These idiots probably forgot to put in the plugs. There’s no way that would sink a boat like that from the wakes.

I would bet a few things. The boat was probably assisted by Trump boats helping them out the water.
Also the video cuts off and goes right to the boat sink.

Looks like whoever was operating the boat may have backed into the waves to cause it to fill up with water like that and kill the engines.

That's a fact, if the boat was being operated properly.

Hopefully they were flying the Jolly Roger beneath the Trump flag before the attack.

There is much less regulation than you think relating to pleasure craft. Boats over 20’ are not required to have level flotation. I also think that boat was overloaded and probably had some maintenance issues.

That's a Bilderberg boat and will probably end up in Antarctica under the snow.

Rough seas create skilled sailors, calm seas create........oh...you know, the thing.
