and my brain immediately went to "why the fuck would you bother!?" Then I remembered he's got orange-tinted vision with his head so far up Trump's ass he sees out of his eyeballs.

to make it look like he (Trump) knows who he is doing. Anyone who has paid attention knows Trump is totally;;y lost in this one.

Last night I was watching one of the coverages and there was a guy from the National weather service giving an update. The talking head asked the NWS guy about Trump's statement that Alabama should prepare for the hurricane. The NWS guy got this look on his face that you could tell he was thinking 'what an idiot.' But out loud he said "well it never hurts to be prepared."

Having category 5 hurricane make landfall with a Category 5 moron in the White House..
.. AND miss his Florida properties.


It would make me feel great if no one was hurt and his Doral and Mar-A-Largo properties were leveled and flooded.
And his "southern White House" was washed out to sea.

Hey a guy can dream.

But this moron eclipses any and all others going back to before the bronze age, so he definitely gets a 5!

and he deserves every ridicule hurled in his direction,
I have friends in Freeport, which is in the direct path of this
monster hurricane, and has now slowed to 1 mph, which means
it will be some time before their horror is over.

I fear for their safety.

Not to mention the solid-line connection between global climate change and the rapidly-increasing frequency of storms like Dorian. But that’s probably due to his total fealty to fossil-fuel interests ($,$$$,$$$).

We’re doomed!
