I imagine he's crouching in a corner, sucking his thumb...particularly, after hearing about Manafort flipping.
Which Peter will he rob to pay Paul if FEMA runs out of funds? I doubt it is on his mind at this point in time. He's worried about covering his own ass. He might check with Mueller on how he pretty much covered the costs of his investigation after Manafort forfeited his wealth (that we know of, anyway). I would guess he has plenty of $ on various islands around the world.

This Puerto Rico denial has echoes of not just the Sandy Hook deniers, but the Holocaust deniers. It's sick. And in North Carolina and South Carolina, they're probably too busy to think about it, but we should remember-- Trump is saying that the deaths of 3K Americans not only doesn't matter... never happened.
This would destroy any other politician. But Trump-- he has so many completely destructo actions, none of them end up mattering.

I figured he'd try to gain some ground by at least tweeting a strong message of concern, thoughts and prayers for all in the path of Florence, but I truly doubt he prays, rarely thinks before he speaks and is only concerned about himself and his family/holdings.
You'd think he'd at least be concerned about Myrtle Beach. Isn't that where the beautiful golf course is?
