So are we going to have a pool for how Trump is going to embarrass himself in response to Florence?


Self aggrandizing photo ops: Even?
Inadequate response: 1 to 3?
Moronic fist pumps or thumbs up: 2 to 1?
Idiotic remarks: Even?

intelligence, common sense, introspection.

Words at the top of his list: me, I, myself, BIGGEST, BEST, believe me, nobody before me knew, only I can, nobody knows more about ... than me, no other president, better than Lincoln's poll numbers.

Also, "The money's on the nightstand, Stormy."

Stepping through debris, lip curled into a sneer/grimace trying to look like she wants to be there. At least while the cameras are rolling. Then giving her people the high sign that she is ready to go. I’ve read that Queen Elizabeth has a signal using her handbag to indicate she is ready to split. Melania can tug on the brim of her MAGA hat.

The R governor of South Carolina, McMaster, will be TRIPPING over himself to provide Trump a platform during recovery and it will be all rainbows and unicorns. The aid can't get there fast enough for that deep red state.

I just wish all states got the help they needed during natural disasters. Trump's response to the California fires was appalling - the BARE minimum (I'm in NC by the way as evidenced by handle).

"We get an A+ grade for our response to Florence", long after it is clear that the response is inadequate.

A preschool-level description of a powerful hurricane, but also a very apt portrayal of the infamous bed in his Moscow hotel suite!
