Discussion: Trump Cancels MAGA Rally In Mississippi Due To Hurricane Florence

“Regrettably, we must cancel the planned Make America Great Again rally in Jackson, Mississippi this Friday,” said Michael Glassner, Chief Operating Officer of Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. “With Hurricane Florence on its way, we determined that this is the safest decision.”

"Those closest to the President needed 3 hours this morning to explain to T rumpp that Mississippi is on the Gulf Coast and not the Atlantic Coast, but that nontheless, he must seize on this opportunity to remain in the Nation’s capital and not be the eye of the storm. "

Safest? It was about safety, and not the optics of holding another Mini-Nuremburg rally in the most racist state possible while one hurricane trashes a critical swing state and another lines up PR for another smash?

Thing is, I actually believe that Trump was scared Mississippi could be hit by Florence and cancelled the thing in terror.

I thought FLorence was going to hit the carolinas, not Mississippi. Not sure why he is cancelling unless he thinks he might actually do something for the people hit or he wants to hunker down in D.C. ha ha , I make myself laugh. Could it be because all news will be on the hurricane and not on him?

He ran away in Puerto Rico. Why shouldn’t he do it on the Redneck Riviera?

He has to be on the Atlantic Coast to dispense all of the paper towels. That’s what Presidents do.

So surprised that Trump didn’t claim that no hurricane can stand up to the Trump.

Don’t worry. Trump will be back with the paper towels next week.

News yes, me, me, me. OtOH it could be that even in racist MS they would have had to find a smaller venue to make sure it appeared to be a packed house.

They were letting him know from the start - remember the rain he claimed stopped when he was making his Inaugural address? Yeah it didn’t stop - it rained on him.

Fake News! There’s no way a hurricane would DARE disrupt Trump. Trump cancelled the rally first and THEN the hurricane decided to hit. Plus, the hurricane voted for Crooked Hillary so by cancelling the rally he’s thwarting Hillary’s dumb hurricane that’s weak and stupid. Make Excuses Great Again!

Mississippi. Come for the hurricanes, stay for the longterm coastal flooding and zika mosquitos.

After calling Sessions a " dumb Southerner" I believe that might have something to do with his decision more than the hurricane. I’m betting they were struggling to get a cheering audience.

The hurricane should be embarrassed, since Trump blows out more damaging winds every time he opens his goddamned mouth.

He’s bigly worried about his VA golf course. Didn’t he buy flood insurance?

Just another data point that proves the existence of a “deep state” to work against the voters of America.
