Trump also recently (and illegally) diverted hurricane relief funding to help build his imaginary border wall. Now the tables \u2013 more specifically the meteorological tables \u2013 have turned.<\/p>\n<p>Right around the time forecasters announced that <strong>Dorian had changed course and was now headed toward Donald Trump\u2019s home of Mar-a-Lago in Florida<\/strong>, Trump suddenly decided that his Poland trip was no longer important to him, and handed it off to Mike Pence instead. Trump didn\u2019t seem to feel compelled to stay home when he thought the hurricane was going to hit the United States island territory of Puerto Rico, because <strong>in Trump\u2019s eyes, Puerto Ricans aren\u2019t real (translation: white) Americans<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Now Trump has a three-fold problem. First, there are the bad optics here, as everyone knows that Trump didn\u2019t care about this hurricane at all until it took a turn toward one of his most cherished properties. Second, Trump faces the prospect of having to mount a hurricane relief effort, at a time when he\u2019s gone five months without a permanent FEMA Director, and <strong>he just pulled FEMA funding for his wall fantasy<\/strong>. Third \u2013 least important in the big picture but certainly most important to him \u2013 a destructive hurricane is heading toward Mar-a-Lago&#8230;\u00a0 [<em>emphasis added<\/em>]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Inserted from &lt;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.palmerreport.com\/analysis\/mar-a-lago-problem-suddenly-trump-donald\/20467\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Palmer Report<\/a>&gt;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Now, I doubt the Fuhrer will weather the storm in Mar-a&#8211;Lago.\u00a0 I trust a sudden attack of bone spurs will prevent that.\u00a0 However, if he does, a nuke is in order.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1 align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #0000ff;\">RESIST!!<\/span><\/h1>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Resident Donald Trump, Fuhrer of the Republican Reich, felt he had to cancel his trip to Poland.\u00a0 He sent his lick-spittle VP instead.\u00a0 Why.
