Trump Boasts About ‘Great Job’ on Hurricane Florence, Says Dems Will Soon Tell ‘Total Lie’ That Response Was Weak

by Ken Meyer | Sep 18th, 2018, 12:41 pm

Donald Trump is preemptively attacking Democrats for what he believes will be their response on government’s reaction to Hurricane Florence.

The southeastern coast of the U.S. is still dealing with significant floods and devastation that the storm caused throughout the weekend. And Trump, according to CNN, will travel down to the Carolinas tomorrow to surveil the damage. But in the meantime, the president is sniping at Democrats because he believes they will inevitably push a “total lie” about how the government will botch recovery efforts.

Link to tweet

Trump’s new tweets come days after he claimed that the number of deaths related to Hurricane Maria — reported to be nearly 3,000 — was concocted by Democrats in order to attack the government’s response to the disaster. Trump faced significant criticism for those remarks even among friendly circles.

America will NEVER live down the shame of this asspickle being president.

I just want to tear my teeth out when I think that all future American History text will have a picture of this racist ass-clown included in the wall of pictures of past presidents.

He's such a weak little man, and so afraid of being criticised he keeps trying to give himself these escape routes so he has someone else to blame for any failure. How convenient, this time he's tagged Democrats, but it could have been any of his assorted "enemies".

Gov Cooper and his team seem to be doing a good job considering the enormity of the problems. NC unfortunately has too much experience with these kinds of disasters. The working relationship with FEMA and federal resources also seems good so far, though it is really early. It probably helps that the FEMA director is from NC and appears reasonably competent.

Trump is flying in tomorrow. Hope he mostly stays out of the way.
