He excites them== they get into that calling the Democratic party and the media "enemies" and "mobs". It could be vegetarians and Browns fans-- they don't care who the "enemy" is, as long as there's an enemy he tells them to hate.

Thanks to his stable genius and the help of his son in law. It is doubtful Nero fiddled while Rome burned but very likely he will refer someone for lockup and accuse the mob. All the while the most powerful storm in recorded American history hits the Southeast.

He only cares about his adoring morons. There is nobody else that matters.

Those buffoons will cheer his nonsense, they won't see anything wrong with a rally as a coastal area is getting pounded, and the only criticism that would really matter to "it" is from those very fools.

He doesn’t give a crap about the hurricane. He has to get his ego fix.

But who's going to show those optics and criticize Trump for being more concerned with campaigning than governing? The media? Ha! This spectacle will be forgotten before you can say "Lunch is served" on Thursday.
