"Right now, everybody is saying what a great job we are doing with Hurricane Florence – and they are 100 percent correct," Trump tweeted.... they "will start ranting that FEMA, our Military, and our First Responders, who are all unbelievable, are a disaster and not doing a good job."

"This will be a total lie, but that's what they do, and everybody knows it!" he said, urging Americans to not "be fooled."

Personally, I think the democrats realized that Trump is running a very good FEMA organization. Heck, they know how great we did with Puerto Rico, they just lie about it.

So personally, I think they are NOT going to attack him for this hurricane.

Instead, they are going to point out how GREAT trump did for his “racist buddies in North and South Carolina”, and contrast that with how BAD he did for the CITIZENS of our country who were hispanic in Puerto Rico.

It’s all about stirring up a race war.

This is good, but I expect someone to edit a video recording of this so that it sounds like he’s scolding the first responders for not doing a good job. They’ll wait to release it, probably during his 2020 reelection campaign.

This kind of preemptive neutralization of anticipated Democrat ‘dirty tricks’ that is effective, and should be used much more often.

In Puerto Rico they had a woman mayor who hated Trump and used the hurricane to #resist. So they rant with that 24/7, then they made up some statistics using a computer model and boom! Trump's a killer with a weather machine that targets women and minorities!

The left hates places like the Carolinas though. There won't be a mayor or governor running to complain that the President is a meanie, nor will they be sitting around waiting to be "saved", they will roll their sleeves up and start rebuilding like the folks on the coast outside New Orleans did after Katrina. So I do think that they will try to berate Trump as a meanie but it'll fizzle out due to lack of whining victims and lack of imagery of people sitting on porches crying with their hands out.
