"Mattress Mack" opens Houston furniture stores to hundreds without power after storm

After a deadly storm swept through Texas, Jim McIngvale's Houston furniture store was packed — but not with shoppers. McIngvale, who goes by Mattress Mack, is known for opening the doors of his furniture stores to those in need. So when a snowstorm left Texans without power or heat in the frigid cold, Mattress Mack invited hundreds in.


"Least we could do is open this furniture store to let people come into a warmer place," Mattress Mack told CBS Houston affiliate KHOU-TV. "Sofas and plenty available TVs, plenty of available mattresses, plenty of available and lots of hot food."

So far, he's opened his Richmond and Houston, Texas, Gallery Furniture stores as shelters.

Next time we my not be so lucky

There will be a next time because this ass is twice emboldened. His shitbag supporters are twice emboldened and they will be back.

Not only is trump guilty, so are his chickenshit senators.
