Discussion: Trump To Texans Facing Generational Storm: 'Good Luck To Everybody!' (VIDEO)

It’s really squeaky clean coal, tho.

“We’ve ended the war on beautiful, clean coal, and it’s just been announced that a second, brand-new coal mine, where they’re going to take out clean coal — meaning, they’re taking out coal, they’re going to clean it — is opening in the state of Pennsylvania,” Trump told a rapt, though eventually dwindling, crowd.

That just burns me up! At least they won’t be cold and the extra heat will help dry things up…does coal burn if it gets wet?

Actually it will clean the water like a charcoal filter. Maybe help with some of the remaining oil from all the recent spills.

“They are all going to be safe.”

How stupid and callous that will sound when the first reports of deaths and catastrophe come in. To me, the message was, Thank God it’s Friday.

Obama would have been in the WH this weekend.

He’s at Camp David for a family getaway. Just the thing after 17 days of vacay.

Just arrived at Camp David, where I am monitoring the path and doings of Hurricane Harvey (as it strengthens to a Class 3). 125 MPH winds!

Yeah, he probably should have stayed in town, but at least Camp David is within an hour’s drive of DC (though I assume he’ll take Marine One and be there in a matter of minutes) and it’s likely got all of the communications gear the president and his entourage will need to keep up with stuff. It’s much more secure and adapted for presidential business than, for example, Mar a Lago, or Bedminster, or Trump Tower. Mind you, John Kelly probably had to twist his arm to get him to go to Camp David rather than one of his preferred getaway locations.

ETA: Having said all that, it wouldn’t hurt his image for him to spend the occasional weekend in the office doing, you know, presidential stuff.

Coal floats right?

You wonder why the MSM was so useless pointing out Trump’s issues? Toddler just asked what democrats stand for except being against Trump.

The same crap leveled at Hillary.

Some statements don’t require an exclamation point.

People are finally asking quotations about Twitter’s role in all this. It’s completely inappropriate to have messages from the president about natural disasters on the some platfotm as the world’s best kielbasa recipe.

Just basic McLuhan stuff.

It depends on the witch content.

At least Todd has Danforth on now, who called Trump in an op-ed the “most divisive politician since George Wallace.”

So much for Danforth. Trump is bad, but democrats are worse, because they’re against everything. Hmmm.

Against affordable health care, I guess, is a bad thing. What else has even come up?

And hey, if Brits had just said that to all the guys stranded at Dunkirk, we could have had a much shorter movie.

As if Hillary and Dems have never articulated policy specifics, such as, expanding health care coverage (they’ve never talked about or done anything about that one! - especially Hillary - who only wrote such a plan 25 years ago!), or ensuring that all Americans pay a fair share in taxes, or raising wages… nope the Dems never talk about anything except how much they hate Trump.

Of course, many media types can’t follow policy discussions - unless they come in connect-the-dots and coloring books. So, all they can grok is when someone says something simple like, “the president sure is having a bad hair day today.”
