https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-environment/2022/11/09/nicole-storm-hurricane-florida-updates/

The surge threat prompted mandatory evacuations in several coastal areas, including Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach County, where Donald Trump is staying. The former president is not leaving, an adviser said, although his club has been closed.

The surge, which could peak at 4 or 5 feet above ground level, is forecast to increase Wednesday night into Thursday morning as the core of Nicole comes ashore. It will be most damaging around high tide, which is set to occur between 8 and 8:30 p.m. Wednesday along Florida’s east coast and again between 8:30 and 9 a.m. Thursday.

and he'll go floundering into the ocean after them (along with his motley ss crewe)

desatan will have to send a tug boat out to rescue trump.

but he won't.

melanoma relaxes on her divan, fluctuating between sipping a tropical strawberry mango drink and simulating oral sex on a peeled banana.

junior doesn't knock before he bursts thru her bedroom door, announcing he found more coke.

she bites down on the banana and sets her drink aside. then she turns over to see her step-son standing beside her wearing only his white underwear halloween costume.

melanoma scowls.

the water is rising. she listens to the raging storm as junior continues staring down at her, smiling.

the end

I know the former guy is used to special treatment always and everywhere, but how many people would have to be pulled off other rescue details to attend to one stubborn man if worst comes to worst at Mar-a-Lago? Would Gov. DeSantis hurt the efforts to help other people to save he former guy?

To get married there this weekend. If he is hoping to keep to plans sort of makes sense why he didn't leave as long as storm doesn't get worse. He loves attention, the wedding for him is not about her, its about everyone seeing him walk her down the aisle.

Just to get under Trump’s skin a little bit more.

Of course DeSantis would never do it because it might have the unintended side effect of saving a few lives.

Go stand on the beach and command the hurricane to go around him so his beautiful golden locks don't get wet.

(Yes, I know the story is apocryphal, and the real Canute was a pretty good leader. I just like the image of Lardass staggering back across the road, soaking wet, with seaweed hanging off him. )

I'd bet that, after the last FBI raid, he moved documents from his other residences and offices and put them in Mar-a-Lago. He's a slippery weasel.

If the boxes get too wet, they'll be of no value to Putin, Xi, or Kim.
