Not so bold prediction: Andrew Gillum gets the Carmen Yulin Cruz treatment from Trump this weekend

The Madman will milk whatever happens in the Florida Panhandle for whatever sick, political gain that he can shake a stick at.

Anything bad that comes of the storm will be directly attributed towards Mayor Gillum. Definitely not the shell of an agency FEMA has become or our illustrious Governor McFraudy.

If drumpf fails to come through with emergency aid, or says bad things about the state, Scott will take the blame, not Gillum. Scott is a trumper and backed by trumpers, so don't think he will do anything to hurt the state and hurt Scott's chances of taking Nelson's senate seat.

We all know that.

It doesn't even need to be within the city limits of Tallahassee. Trump will find a way to blame Gillum.

...such as blaming the Administration for using ionospheric heaters to excite the hurricane itself.

Folks in FL know Gillum isn't the governor and it's the governor that handles hurricane emergencies, not the local mayors. He's not going to screw over Scott, people in that area would blame him and Scott. He's going to make sure there's a good response from FEMA or he and his lackey Scott will pay the price.
