At some point over the next week or two,Trump is going to either say, on camera or on Twitter, something along the lines of his convention was the greatest convention of all time but the media only spoke about the hurricane.
A Cat 4 hurricane is going to smash into the 4th most populous city in the United States and I can already see Trump blaming it for not getting enough media attention for his speech or if he doesn't get a bump in the polls from it.

(3,282 posts)I don't know what politician came up with this trope, but there is more than enough work to be done without having to put on a dong and pony show for a Presidential photo op at the same time.
If I were a mayor/governor in a state with a big natural disaster and a President said they were going to visit I'd tell them that's fine, but I don't have the police to spare for their security details.
