Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort evacuated in face of Hurricane Irma

US President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate was evacuated along with the rest of the exclusive town of Palm Beach as Hurricane Irma threatened South Florida with catastrophic winds.

Authorities on the barrier island that is home to Trump's so-called "winter White House" ordered a mandatory evacuation on Thursday.


Trump has allowed MarALago to be evacuated in the face of the supposed threat that not only does Hurricane Irma exist but that this imaginary hurricane might actually cause damage. As the Big Bad Wolf might say, "I'll huff and I'll puff..."

However, patriot and man with nerves of steel, Rush Limbaugh has been working hard to soothe the frazzled nerves of those supposedly under threat from this fake news of a storm. During his Monday monologue Limbaugh had this to say:

“The reason that I am leery of forecasts this far out, folks, is because I see how the system works,” Limbaugh said, alluding to alleged conspiracies against President Donald J. Trump. “Hurricane Harvey and the TV pictures that accompany that go a long way to helping further and create the panic.”


If only Failing CNN had covered Ivanka's special fall line-up of alligator skin stilettos (guaranteed to protect the wearer from any storm surge of up to 50 feet or more) instead of jaunting off to Houston to film the exploits of the Cajun Navy. But for the Free Press (which should be eliminated), Donald Trump (and the rest of us - except that we citizens don't count) would have known better than to fall prey to yet one more conspiracy.

The Failing WaPo and the Failing New York Times are hardly innocent of spreading uncalled for concern in the face of Category 4 and Category 5 hurricanes either. Still, this should not have mattered since Trump gets all his news from Fox and Friends and all the good people on both sides at Stormfront - OK, maybe this one time he should have resisted checking in with StormFront. Whatever the source of his fake news, Trump has inadvertently let loose a shock wave of panic among his faithful as they scramble to buy bottled war and gas for their cars.

All's not lost, however. Kellyanne Conway has announced that should the fake need arise, MarALago will open as a public shelter just in case fake storm Irma is photoshopped and pictures of fake flooding are put up by the lying liberal media.

Stay safe those of you in the region where Irma is lied to possibly hit. When your cars and homes are under water, just remember it's all a hoax, and you'll feel much better just like Rush.

That Limbaugh...

Not only an American hero, but now a hurricane forecaster.

His dittohead followers will stick with him no matter what, though. Like if he shot someone on 5th Avenue.

Seems to be a pattern among RWNJs.

Rx-ush is hunkered down, stocked up with food and Oxy. He's too heavy for Irma to move anyway.

What Limbaugh is doing regarding spreading hurricane miss-information borderlines on criminal, definitely irresponsible. The anti-science crowd are being led like sheep by Limbaugh and the Alex Jones' of the world and I hope they don't end up paying a high price for their ignorance.

I see that Rush said yesterday that he is decamping from his Florida residence for parts unknown.


https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.396a02c0a378


Rush explained that on Friday (today) he 'thought' it would be 'legally impossible' for him to broadcast from his Florida location. Not only a weatherman, but a budding lawyer.

Why exactly would it be "legally impossible" to broads from his Florida location?

And a major a-hole.

He should not have left. He is fat enough to not need a life preserver to float in the flood waters and far too heavy to be moved by 150 mph winds. Too bad he believes the "fake news".
