with his minions standing in front of him reporting to him on the storm. And then he "says, like, OK, that's enough.." like he's totally bored and dismisses them.

that he didn't get why people didn't evacuate and someone had to tell him - "Mr. President, they can't all evacuate. Some are poor and can't drive out." Like a "duh" moment for him.

because your leadership and assistance will make a huge difference in the storm's impact. What would all those "poor" people do without your masterful hands on the controls? Think of the cheeldren!
