Trump's Mar-a-Lago Faces Dual Threat From Tornados, Hurricane Ian

Source: Newsweek

As Hurricane Ian barrels toward Florida, many residents are wondering whether their homes may be in the direct path of the storm and what actions need to be taken to ensure their safety as well as their property's safety.

Mar-a-Lago, former President Donald Trump's resort in Palm Beach, Florida, will feel some effects of Hurricane Ian. This morning, Palm Beach County was under a tornado watch and warning, and it was subject to hurricane-related events such as heavy rains and strong winds as the outer bands of the storm moved through the state.

Hardly any damage, but he claimed otherwise.

Hard to believe, I know.

He'll scam the government out of tens of thousands of dollars if one shingle falls off.

Let’s have Biden show up there at trumps with his aviators on and in his Vet, and start tossing paper towels. Bring Obama too. He has a sweeter distance shot follow through.
Then laugh and say, “just joking, this is not a DEMOCRAT policy for someone in need”.

He'll RIP us off for major bucks, if not watched! Plus who in Florida will double check his claim? Probably nobody. He'd take every last Florida dollar away from the people of Florida, that really need it.

It's a good thing the FBI got those documents out of there when thy did. If they were still in there now, there's no telling where they'd end up.

And where is he right now, anyway? I doubt he's in Mar-a-Lago.

Isolated tornadic activity in a few place around Palm Beach County, which is bad if it's your property but other than that...

Still, Trump will probably pump sea water into that place here and there and knock golf balls through a few windows to claim substantial damage was done and grift what he can off the gov..

Or he would if he were here, which he isn't, so he'll have some one else do it.

could ward off any of nature's most destructive events. Nothing could penetrate that fortification of fascism but greater evil, and nature isn't evil. Donald Trump and his acolytes are the personification of evil.
