Mar-a-Lago is under a mandatory evacuation order as Tropical Storm Nicole approaches. It’s currently teetering on hurricane strength and is expected to be at least a Category 1 storm when it makes landfall. The evacuation zone is projected to have a “life threatening” storm surge of five feet or more, with accompanying huge waves pushing more water ashore. Situated on a spaghetti-thin barrier island at minimal elevation, Mar-a-Lago is at considerable risk. Quelle dommage!

Should Trump choose to evacuate, he and his associates really ought be closely watched to see if they take any boxes of documents along. Being caught red-handed would be a delicious cherry on top of his miserable showing as a kingmaker in yesterday’s elections, no?

That will be great for tRump if any storm damage happens. It will give him an opportunity to file millions $$$$ in fraudulent damage claims to his beach mansion.

That will make him happy and shake him out of his midterm election loss funk.

Get all those evangelical folks who were pictured praying over him a few years ago to "pray the hurricane away". After all Pat Robertson did it with his PTL village (he claims). I wonder if it hits Mara-Lago-Archivo what he'd say about that. LOL

Claim he's going to stay and bravely face the hurricane then sneak out if town. The authorities need to keep an eye on the airports and any boats being moved out of the way.

You and your spawn. Don’t run like a bunch of pussy’s. Gawd won’t hurt YOU. If it gets bad, all your spawn can float on your bloated ass.
Come on Gawd. Trump is your “so yesterday” prophet. Your new boy is DeSatan, do him a favor and eliminate his competition as cult leader.

Wait until it is over Mar-a-Lago, then nuke it!

Hopefully the Stable Genius still have some nuclear codes amongst his Top-Secret documents that work.

Please cancel any form of damage insurance before the event, somebody!

Will it take a judge to force his " mandatory" evacuation? What, with all the ensuing appeals, he may drown....Nicole should expect a thorough suing herself. Fleeing to Canada will not insulate her from justice. None dare thwart the Trump.

so the Deep State investigators can plant evidence to incriminate a highly innocent man - one of the most highly innocent of our generation if not in US history.

Should be interesting to see what trumped up (no pun intended) charges they'll file against our man TFG.

Or did Donny refuse the protection?

I do like the image of him caught in flagrante with boxes in hand. It would save ever so much in court costs and time. It could have the added benefit of silencing those tiresome apologists in the other party.

I wonder where he will evacuate to? Bedminster? I don't recall a Trump Tower Atlanta, or Houston.

Maybe he'll just take a short flight to Grand Cayman to visit his money? Or was that Panama?

Oh My!

This was not intentional. I began to feel a bit guilty for chuckling about it.

Prophetic? Who knows?

I hope he goes into the cellar to ride it out.
