He knows the party is in trouble if the Dems come out and vote in droves like they do. That's all it is.

Even CNN had the compassion to understand it's not business as usual. Scott/Nelson debate postponed.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump
Yesterday Obama campaigned with JayZ & Springsteen while Hurricane Sandy victims across NY & NJ are still decimated by Sandy. Wrong!

"There was at least one key difference: Obama and his 2012 rival, Mitt Romney, both suspended their campaigns as the storm hit. They resumed campaigning days later.

Trump’s event in Florida took place mere hours after Hurricane Michael made landfall."

A good leader will prepare before the storm hits, like Trump seems to do, and like, so it seems, obama did not.
Once the preparations are set there isn't much to do while the storm is raging, other than to tweak the preparations after they see the path and strength, etc. During the storm they are basically sitting on their hands until they know what the storm is doing/has done. After the storm is when they need to hit the ground running.

Sooo, Trump prepares before the storm and then does his rally during the storm, when he's needed the least. While obama stops campaigning during the storm, when he's needed the least (unless he didn't bother to prepare before the storm) and goes back to campaign after the storm when he's needed the most. And Trump is the one to complain about, seriously?

wait, you seriously quoted something from the 2nd page of this thread and then criticized the person for asking the question that person asked hours ago?

Not to mention that no, it wasn't answered. Just deflected.

Isn't it great how Leftists are so awed by Trump's power that they think he can change the course of hurricanes?

He has an empathy problem, it’s in his family genes and the manner in which he wads raised.

Trump Refuses to Cancel Campaign Rally While Hurricane Rages
Did I miss an announcement where Democrat candidates and their surrogates were suspending all campaign activity until after the hurricane?

Yeah, it was right after the one that said that the President of the United States is no longer the only one who is in charge of the federal government.

The left will never be satisfied with any answer and we are now in the world of "new rules". Sorry folks but you don't get to constantly whine and moan about everything even when you are appeased. Great rally btw, and I'm pretty sure he already met with and has the connection in this modern world of comm tech to be in touch and pull together the needed resources. But don't let that get in the way, facts are so annoying.
Both sides do this and it’s annoying.
