Oh, the irony

that tRumplandia will be hit in the gut on Day 2 of the RNC by dual hurricanes named, wait for it... Laura* and Marco*. Is that a metaphor for next week? that two Repig blowhards will be bringing impending doom?

If Laura survives its Sunday-Monday trek over the mountains of Hispaniola and Cuba, it is expected to reach Category 1 strength in the warm eastern Gulf waters Tuesday. It’s path is aimed at the Louisiana-Mississippi border, with Pensacola the only part of Florida still caught in the cone of uncertainty.

Tropical Depression 14 will enter the western Gulf on Sunday and is projected to grow into Hurricane Marco on Tuesday. Its path is also veering west, right at the center of the Texas coastline. It was moving northwest at nearly 13 mph, with maximum sustained winds of 35 mph.


*as in Ingraham and Rubio, ICYMI
