Discussion: White House: Trump To Visit Florida Thursday In Wake Of Hurricane Irma

Dear WH,
Stop monitoring the situation. We know in Trump’s case it means watching 10 minutes of Fox News and the rest of you aren’t helping anyone who actually needs it.

Can he stay down there for a while?

As for Melania’s caps during the tour, I love them in a horrible way. First the FLOTUS cap then I saw her with a TEXAS cap. I personally, am looking forward to future caps like: FLORIDA, FLOODED, CROCODILES!

I’m sure they’ll come up with crap I just would never had imagined. Otherwise, I just don’t care about her.

On the kids version it’s “Florida: America’s pee-pee”.

It makes my angry when politicians (Rick Scott, Trump, etc.) talk about how “they’ll all hold hands and fix everything.” General Honore (of Katrina notoriety) was interviewed last night and he spoke about how the human condition will deteriorate in Florida and the Caribbean over the next few days. People have no power in the heat, no water, they’re tired and dirty, and there’s no cell phone service in many places so they can’t find out if they’ll have a home or job to return to. In the Virgin Islands, they’re under a very restrictive curfew so, in the few hours when they’re allowed to venture out, the crowds at gas stations and places that may have food are horrible. Honore said there will inevitably be some violence and ugliness - and then folks will condemn the victims as bad people. Donald Trump won’t empathize with any of this misery.

I’m sure the victims of those horrible experiencecould use some comic relief at this point. They can’t expect anything else from Trump who cut the budget for the Coast Guard before these disasters.

When the Florida Governor put out the call for volunteers to work with those with special needs even before this latest hurricane struck, he was looking to the long term as well.

There are so many elderly residents in Florida who are not going to be able to cope with all the uncertainty in the coming months without experiencing major health problems.

This crisis is going to become a major mental health crisis for the most vulnerable which will work against their physical ailments as well. This truly is a disaster unlike any this country has ever had before. Multiply it by 50 states as the Baby Boomers age and global warming continues to play havoc on our communities.

And Trump wants to repeal ObamaCare, cut Medicaid and stab Medicare in the back? Are we just going to kick the chronically sick to the gutter like we are the Dreamers and transgenders? Trump’s NeoNazis supporters must be in 7th heaven.

Hubert Humphrey once said that a society is judged by how they treat their old and young, sick and poor.

Bet he holds another rally and pushes for his tax cuts while he down there in Dixie.

Don’t worry the devil has plans for him down there.

He’s like a hamster in a squirrel cage.

I envision someone in Rump Enterprises thinking they can market this cap–so women all over the South can claim to be FLOTUS.

The only question: will the lying pompous pig be wearing stilettos?..Klinger style

I wonder how much Mar-a-Lago (May I lay her and then go) will con out of the federal flood program this time? Any bets that Trump takes more than $ 17 M this time around and pockets the dough in the same Panamanian bank and his husband Vladimir? Will that money get passed through to hubbie Vladimir…to keep the Russian’s from spilling the collusion beans!!!

I believe flotus is the singular of flotsum. It a beachcombers hat…

Foto-call and prepared statement . " Hope y*all vote for me in 2020 " .

I’m not a believer but if I was I’d think god was a bigger asshole than the devil!

Another great photo op for his next campaign, assuming he has one and hoping he doesn’t!
