BREAKING: Several boats sank while taking part in a parade in support of President Trump at a lake near Austin, Texas, a spokesperson for the Travis County sheriff’s office says.

AUSTIN, Texas — A spokesperson for the Travis County sheriff’s office in Texas says “several” boats sank Saturday while taking part in a parade in support of President Donald Trump.

“We responded to multiple calls of boats in distress, several of them sank,” but there are no reports of fatalities or injuries and investigators have not determined how many boats sank on the lake near Austin, according to sheriff’s spokesperson Kristen Dark.“We have no reason to suspect foul play in any of these,” sinkings, Dark said.

Those boats were full of Biden supporters.

And this is the type of disrespect carelessness. what were they thinking all these boats in one place with all the wakes? It really amazes me how intelligent people should know better and yet support this man👨 and really don’t care about anybody else’s humanity

Fake news. NO Boats sank.

A Biden boat parade is like an albino unicorn! 😂

That’s nothing. Guess what happened in Connecticut last week...?

Hope boaters weren’t drinking.

There are rarely waves on Lake Travis. The sinking boats? Caused by the other “boaters” being too stupid to realize THEY were causing waves. Incredibly incompetent. But not surprising, they’re all brainwashed traitors

He should’ve been at the Boat Parade instead.

Ignoring warning signs seem to be a way of life for some people.

Those Joe Biden boat parades are something ... oh wait, there are none. He did get a few people at his last event in Pittsburgh, more people waited at a bus stop nearby though.

The ship is sinking, so the presidency.

Finally, Trumpets do something right!

😂😂😂😂talking about LOSERS😂😂😂😂

So what’s your point?

Wow...Earth shattering news that every American needs to know because it really affects our daily lives. I feel so informed now. 🙄

trump sunk

Karma is a bitch

Dear alleged Christians, If the plague wasn’t enough of a message from God that Donald Trump isn’t the answer, maybe this will help convince you. Probably not, though.

WOw! The finally decided to cover one Trump boat parade? I am impressed! You've been missing out on those since they started!

JimLaPorta What a metaphor!

Karma likes water! Hopefully no one lost their life for this 🍊🤡💩!

Look at your stellar reporting, must be proud with your in depth story

There was a leak....

Now this is a perfect metaphor! However, I’m glad nobody died or injured. Thoughts and prayers to the boats.

BoatersForTrump ☠️☠️☠️☠️🤑🤑🤑🤑. Deathisntcheep TrumpBoatParade DonTheCon TIREDOFBEINGTRUMPED

They were very very good boats. They like me. They.... um ... I don’t know.... it’s a sad deal... very very good people. They like me...

Karma is awesome!

Obama’s fault.

How many Biden boat parades were there?

Hahahahaha

Aaaaaand Trumpster conspiracy theories in 4...3...2...

So what !

Democrats are just bitter about the overwhelming turn out of Americans supporting our President. Ignoring the thousands of boaters with signs for President Trump to focus on a few who had boating issues is so petty and pathetic.

Here too, we don’t care how many boats sank {cases}, but rather how many people drowned?

40AcresBuilt ShipsofFools

And the hundreds of boat rallies that Biden never had? Those covered next, right?

ETTD

So you’re saying less than 6% of the boats in the parade actually sunk? 🤔

The AP finally covers a Trump boat parade!

The AP covers a Trump boat parade!

And

Lmao

Parable?

Good!

Anyone associated with Donald Trump in anyway will meet and see failure Coming before their end.

🐦

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

It was God pointing his finger. Why don’t you get it! Suckers.

The perfect metaphor for a failed campaign. DumpTrump2020

Just put any negative spin you can

I think they were metaphorical democrat infiltrators 🤣

As the great Jeff Foxworthy put it, “there’s your sign”. So now y’all know not even boats like Trump enough to stay afloat for his parade.

Loser boats.

Says it all.

ABC6NEWS No news for thousands BoatersForTrump ABC all about communism brought to you by the CCP who gave us the coronavirus democratsareimmoral and media $ supporting criminals at home and abroad hijacked by anarchists BLM hijacked by Marxists

Trump reality for the election😂😂 sanking began

Symbolic

Hahahaha GOOD

They were a few small boats that took on water - no supporters drowned, sorry.

This thread, tho.

Tell us about the rest of the parades! You crusty propagandists! MSMIsTheEnemyOfThePeople

As only you report the negative

I guess now they have to Drain the Swamp

Lake Travis sinks Trump. Has a nice (rubber) ring about it

Oh dear... how sad... never mind!

Only 4?

FOXNashville Antifa has finally deployed their submarines!!!! Even the water isn't safe!!!

Well the latest non-AP reports show no fatalities or serious injuries. Looks like a bunch of people in boats ended up displacing a lot of water at the same time causing them to swamp and sink each other. LakeKarma

The BOATUS for POTUS don't FLOTUS. 🇺🇸🌊

Rick Wilson is a Prophet. 😇

🤣😂😅😅😂🤣🤣😂😅🤣😅😅🤣😂

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙏

Something something... sinking ship.

Are you incinuating an issue of the sinking?

Gods are now attacking the liars and trumpanzees

Some good news for a change!

Must have been a blue wave.

Nothing like 30-45 boats and jet skis, in one area on Labor Day Weekend, some yee-haws, and booze.

Dumbkirk

lies are wayyyy to heavy guys, also too many flags?

What boats sinks?

We’re they wearing your God damm masks?

Pretty stupid to sink your boat in your own wake.

Well. When you have a bunch of fat assholes boating in the same area creating wakes they tend to overtake smaller vessels also filled with fat assholes.

Nailed it:

OMG It's the first time in history that a boat sank Stop the presses

And? How many Joe Biden signs have you seen? Is your summer intern still working this long weekend.

Interesting The AP did not break the story of the record breaking Trump boat parade last week. Maybe I missed it. Yeah, that's it. I missed it.

And Lake Granbury,TX

A few Consecutive boats might sink in a parade but it is less than the liberals sinking their trucks at the dock trying to launch thier boats.

Is this the sign of Trump's sinking ship. God's have spoken evangelicans, wake up America

Would you have reported this if something silly hadn’t happened? No, of course not. You won’t report the level of enthusiasm for Trump because it’s propaganda 101. You can’t let people see that their side has support.

Anyone enjoying this you must be a screwed up individual.

Ha ha

It was caused by Antifa's secret 'Wakes And Tides Extinguishers of the Right' (W.A.T.E.R.) Division.

Drain the swamped! 🤣

👀

What a surprise: said no one

The campaing of realDonaldTrump sank because have not 'solid floor' inside. 'them' can't stay floating. Logic, 'charge excese': angry, promote violence, racial conflict. Trump promote hate: 'excese of charge', sank. We have a Real 'Invisible Machine'. NASA CNN BarackObama

Honestly, just hope everyone's safe

You need to seriously re-evaluate your definition of national news - and the persons hired to make that determination. A few boats sank? Seriously? This is national news? In your political dreams.

Sorry, not sorry

WOW! The looting, rioting, building burners, criminals, cop killers, baby killers, innocent killers supporters are out in full force!!! Keep going dems! Our POTUS had more boats on the water today than you can count! How many boat was out for JoeBiden?

No MAGA boats sank... is fake news!!!

Hilarious. Not

LIES!

Sounds suspicious 🤔

😂

Trump: These people are ‘Losers’ and ‘Suckers’...

A beautiful metaphor.

Geez the left is so full of hate. Their sad folks. Pitiful.

BREAKING! Fender bender outside Joe hiden's presser today. Two out of the four attendees involved.

Literally going down with Trump!

Karma?!

Boo fckn hoo 😜

Blue Wave came early.

Like his presidency dreams!

Now report every other successful Trump boat parade that is happening every weekend in the 1000's across the country! Oh yea, that's not the narrative you're looking for. 👎🙄

hmriskgroup this your people?

40AcresBuilt Like his presidency. I'm sure he and his supporters will blame China tomorrow. Barr will back up these assertions based on logic and intelligence reports that only he has seen.

Torpedoed?

40AcresBuilt You forgot the picture of a hockey arena. It would have tied it all together. 😉

Those boats didn’t sink as fast as JoeBiden’s fans did...no one ever shows for his speeches. 🤣🤣🤣 BIDEN IS SUCH A LOSER!!

Omg Democrats must be in their glory

Que the tolerant liberal comments in 3,2,1.....

Why don’t you focus more on HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE OUT TELLING realDonaldTrump THEY LOVE AND SUPPORT HIM... How many people were out showing support for JoeBiden ZERO!!! Biden will be a NO-SHOW at the debates...

TheTweetOfGod was it you?

Trump will get his. You can't talk about our veterans and servicemen and women that way. He wouldn't be here if not for there bravery and valor.

Thoughts and prayers

The Seattle of Texas

Way to keep up the high percent of negative Presidential coverage! You never disappoint.

😂

Trump’s navy.

🤣

This must of been a frightening experience. I'm glad there's been no report of injuries.

What no pictures...just more FAKE NEWS..TRUMP PENCE 2020

And this is news? I guess you and your liberal elites think this is funny. And you wonder why you lose elections.

Sinking ships? Trumpkin ships at that. Kind of prophetic.

It is what it is

But 99% didn't sink. Like peaceful protesters.

Nope. No boats sinking here.

There goes Stephen Ross money down the drain....... MiamiDolphins 🐬

I love how foaming at the mouth liberals think that Republicans possibly dying is fun.

Excellent!

The lakes were ready to cleanse the population of the worst breed of human waste on this planet. 💦

Progressive insurgents sent in with that goal of generating neg. publicity on one successful event after another? Just sayn...

Suckers and losers.

Truth be told just to many boaters supporting Pres. Trump. I guess it’s bound to happen when you have that much support.

Unless there were problems with each boat separately or they ran over something in the water I would suspect sabotage!

Any updates on the wonderful POTUS supporter boat parades in Pensacola New Jersey Missouri Erie pa OH San Diego Alabama Ft Myers Kentucky.

It’s the irony for me 😆

Even God hates Trump

Before you criticize or make fun, show us the Biden rallies......

I like boats that don't sink... TrumpHatesOurVeterans

Couldn't have happened to a better bunch! LOL

Omg Auntjaneywaney

Breaking: Fake news stations beginning to sink. Too many holes in their stories.

I hear people are blaming the Antifa winds.

Old news someone from Fla sent us a photo first we tweeted may be Esper can help the fake news CNN told us after 1 hr AnaCabrera

Trump supporters even go out in rough seas, that’s called commitment! Trump 2020!

The US has more boats than any other country, so many beautiful boats, if we had less boats there would be less sinking!

WritesMore A sign of things to come!

There has been 1000s of these for 5 mths do you know how depraved you have to be to almost be jumping into water yourselves over excitement about boats sinking because they had a trump flag! It is wishing people harm because your politics differ! Left is vile

Somethings you just can’t make up.

Make America Buoyant Again!

StormIsUponUs 😹

BS

I lived on the shore of Lake Travis for many years. Boats sink all the time. Especially on holiday weekends. I don't see the relationship to trump. No one reports 'boats sink on Texas - OU weekend'

And......?

'Hey, how many people are you going to put in that boat?!' - Police Chief Martin Brody.

Now if only Trump’s bots would sink

God don't like ugly

Trump fault right AP?

JimLaPorta Come on guys... it was the BlueWave

This is the news you choose to cover? I would check The Associated Press for signs of sinking.

HannahJSmith_

Sucks to be them!

The thousands & thousands of boats at the Jersey Shore & Pensacola pro Police/pro Trump parades stayed afloat, though.

That would be a sign from god to stop supporting him according to their own logic right?

As Rick Wilson has said time and time again. ETTD

The prayers of persecuted people are usually quickly accepted by God!

And you’re still getting trump

WritesMore Because they were too close to each other and the wake of the larger boats swamped the smaller boats. Duh!

ChampionMtager This is not news you hacks. The news is the thousands upon thousands upon thousands of boats that are sailing all over this country for Trump.

Maybe it was a rally demonstration? Sinking, just like Trump’s campaign...

While Biden supporters continue to destroy america burning down and looting one democrat shithole at a time.

Large boats’ wakes were sinking smaller boats.

After COVID, double hurricanes, and other calamities we've experienced in 2020, these numbnuts STILL cannot take a hint...even thegoodgodabove hates Trump. How many more hints do they need?

No businesses were burned or looted in this parade. Class versus ass

Meanwhile..in Pensacola

Lol love it when people get what they deserve

Associated Press has been a Democrat operative for years! Another news outlet that has sold their soul for 30 pieces of silver! All their journalist are rabid left wing socialist nuts/no longer free press! They have no tolerance for freedom of views/only their own narrative! Fake

Biden can’t get 6 people to a rally.

wrong lake now try and find the right one, Boat owners not putting the plug in there boat before taking off.

Journalism at its finest 😂😂😂😂 pathetic!

TRUMP THE DUMP 💩

Were they overwhelmed by a bluewave ?

Did they hit a poll?

Only few of them sank! Accidents happen! I think you should cover ALL the boat parades, “truly, peaceful marches” all over the country! DIVIDING MEDIA!

How appropriate! Good!

ETTD

Awwww. And the media jumped with joy!!

AP = Asshole Press

Hahaha. This is awesome.

Finally the news actually reports a Yrump boat parade but alas we had to have sinking’s before the news was even interested.....🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻

Bahahahhahahahahha

There were quite a few TrumpBoatParade today across the country. How many Biden parades were there today? It’s

Trump's ship sinking. God help him but excuse me God, you have to take care of his Karma.

Yay

Several boats sink every day but thanks AP ....

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Trump 2020! Get over it AP!

AP always finding away to cover realDonaldTrump supporters in a negative way, would never mention how enthusiastic his base and party is. FourMoreYears

Stop the presses. The AP has another earth shattering story. A freaking boat sank in the lake. This Might be enough to win a Pulitzer Prize. Congratulations AP for giving us the news we can’t get or don’t want to get anywhere else. BOAT SINKS!

Don't look at me. I wasn't laughing.

....and the Big one in New Jersey today!

Well at least you are finally covering a Trump rally! Too bad for those couple of boats- too many Trump supporters wanted on I guess!

Stfu

They were Biden boats They had no engine and was weighted down with lies

DonaldJTrumpJr This is the boat I saw TrumpLandslide2020

This article is making me seriously question if maybe there really is a God.

This is a national story? Meanwhile BLM is trashing another city.

Did BLM and ANTIFA Leftist wacko's drill a hole in the boats or something else utterly insane?

Our prayers with those affected

Ah yes, the trump touch.

I hope everyone is ok.

Praying they are all safe.

TrumpysNavy Suckers Losers

You think Trump really cares about them.. 🤣🤣 WhiteHouse TeamTrump

Joining the sinking ship

play stupid games

“It is what it is” 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hopefully, they don’t consider life vests to as tyrannical as masks...

So very shocked and sorry to hear this! We are praying 🙏all boaters are safe and sound!

Thank you for clarifying the size of 19,000 acres as 7,689 hectares.

Oh if I'd only been there to throw them lifesavers

How prophetic.

Those boats were campaign contributions

Just when we thought Trump supporters couldn't sink any lower.

I didn’t swim around in their marina last night with a hand drill and a hole saw...dunno what yer talking about

LOL

Completely symbolic of Trump’s presidency and his administration!

I thought that happened off the New Jersey coast.

It is what it is..

“People who let their boats sink are suckers and losers”. - *Me * If I was deplorable like trump and his ilk

💁🏾‍♂️

Boats just don't sink, and not so many in one place at one time without help. I smell sabotage.

The irony

MonaB3541 The National Weather Service says there were no storms in the area and the winds were calm. Guess it was divine intervention. Ships of Fools

And they called the government to ....bail them out.

Y’all got him this time for sure!

Yes!

JoshuaShortWNDU You have to consider the level of mental acuity one must possess to admire and support TrumpIsALoser and what you need to be safe and proficient boater which is considerably higher. Dumbkirk

God help them.

Hahahahahahahahahaha

Maybe gods telling them something. VoteTrumpOut TraitorTrump VoteBlueToSaveAmerica

They are actually praising Trump on the water....

🥳

God has spoken!

Thoughts and prayers

Yea I saw the video on YouTube those are some expensive hot toys to be sinking like that

karma for not listening to officials. These people def don’t wear masks either!

Karma

“God works in mysterious ways”

Karma

Ohhh hey Karma ... BlueWave2020 🌊🌊🌊

To steal a joke from Britain (AD 1588), I’m going to get a glass-bottomed boat to watch the Trump parade.

Fire and EMS are social services! A true Republican would have pulled himself up by his bootstraps and swam to shore, unaided by big government

Well, if people only reported half the number of boats involved, the number of boats that sunk would be less. The USA has so many more boats...more than any other country..and so the number that get sunk is higher.

It was a set up

That lake is flat calm most days, I can only assume they were sunk by the wake of other bigger, more arrogant, expensive and uncaring boats. An ironic metaphor if you will.

🤣😂🤣😂

Thought this was an article about Biden’s sinking campaign.

Row row row your boat Speeding down the stream Rapidly rapidly rapidly rapidly And their gonna sink

I cannot stop laughing. We're rats jumping off?

No tears here.

“Hey, I prefer boats that don’t sink, okay?”

Can't think of a better metaphor for his reelection.

Thoughts and prayers suckers

Here’s one of them.

Too many guns onboard

Bless their ignorant hearts... Maybe the water knocked off their orange colored glasses..🙃🤔

They're never in danger. Shit floats.

Lol

Trump goes down in the polls while his supporters go down with the ship.

The lord works in mysterious ways

It's actually poetic

Sure they didn’t mistake them for his Ship of State? That has sunk, too, with over 180K deaths to date!

Quite the metaphor huh?

A more apt metaphor for the Trump administration could not exist. Did they abandon the sinking ships?

Very suspect🧐 Sounds like the finger needs to point at the Dems. That’s how low they have become

Too many boats on the lake created problems for the smaller craft. Several took on water & a few sank.

KeysInfoNet A rising tide of enthusiasm sinks all boats.

The Onion usually reports this sort of news.

Hope they weren’t wearing life jackets

That's your 'news'? How many? And don't know why they sank, just that they did. Not much of a news story . My ten year old could have found a better story to write about.

Tots and pears to those who suffered.

🤭🤔 how unfortunate

Poetic justice to the nth degree!

2020 the headline

Falls in line with what he’s tried to do with the country 😂😂😂😂😂😂 they probably thought the boat sinking was a hoax

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 God Hates Ugly!!!!

Glad nobody was hurt. Also...

lunybinger

JustinYselonia Hoorah 😃

I'm guessing speeding caused wakes which sank smaller boats. They have already shown they don't follow rules.

In retrospect. Hurricane season in the gulf may not be the best time for a nautical parade.

The boats are sinking because Trump's presidency is sinking.

FOXNashville Time for a Rats on a Sinking Ship metaphor.

Sorry Austin Texas had rough weather out there. Prayers and Love to Austin Texas hope everyone safe and well out there. Hugs.

Too easy!

the Y'all Queda Navy sinks itself

Haaa, Jokes write themselves sometimes 🤣

i think jesus is trying to tell them something

A symbolic precursor.

It’s a hoax fake news nothing sank.

🤔

😂😂😂😂

Explain this, evangelicals?

A perfect example of where hate and division can get you

ETTD

Was this a parade or a reenactment of his first term?

Just when we thought Trump supporters couldn't sink any lower

f

Biden campaign out there sabotaging trump boats. They will stop at nothing.

ETTD

They should have paid attention when the rats started leaving

hoax

Nothing will ever beat 'Dumbkirk' esp in context of his anti-soldier comments.

That has to be a good sign!

It is what it is...

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

A dead in the water Trump sinks all boats.

🤷🏻‍♀️

Oh no! I hope the people were rescued on the boats that sank.

Karma

How many you think were tampered with?

Is that why Dumbkirk is trending

God does not like ugly.

It's actually a metaphor for this entire four years...floating endless pretty ideas only to see them sink when underway.
