But seriously, current projections suggest that Dorian could

[malaise]

destroy Mar-a-Lago.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

1. Dolt 45 will charge the government for the cost of restoring it

while at the same time collecting an inflated insurance payout.

[malaise]

2. But the irony won't be lost on people across the globe

Sadly everyone else in the neighborhood is also in trouble.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. At least it might be out of commission for a few months

so he'll have to do his grifting elsewhere this winter. Too bad it's impossible to aim a hurricane at a single target; hope everybody else in the area comes out OK.

[malaise]

3. By the way he has already praised the Florida governor kind of like

Bush and Brownie of Katrina fame.

[onethatcares]

9. since hurricane Michael

and the panhandle things are really touchy about handling the damage. DeSantis seems to want to do the correct thing unlike his predecessor that has had a change of heart about climate change and global warming.

as far as the orange shitgibbon, screw him with a jagged light bulb.

p.s. I started tying things down and cleaning up the yard even though i'm on the west central coast. Started and ran the generator, buying 30 gal. of gas, and freezing milk jugs for ice basically as I type this.

Tomorrow, water, bread, survival food stock up. If I could only find my list.

[malaise]

10. Stay safe

Just saw that West Palm Beach folks held a press conference about preparations.

[onethatcares]

13. ty.

West Palm is on the other side of the state, I'm between Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, St Petersburg eggzackery and the last update I saw has it a Cat 1 when it passes me. That I think I could take.

[madaboutharry]

5. He will start tweeting this:

“We must repair The Southern White House! The people demand it! It shouldn’t cost me any of my own money!”

[malaise]

11. He is heading for Poland

Can you effin' believe this?

[safeinOhio]

28. He needs to stay and prove he is

The Chosen One and part the sea.

[Dennis Donovan]

6. I pray nothing is destroyed

...even Marjorie Merriweather Posts' historic home.

[guillaumeb]

7. I have some paper towels.

Do you know where I should send them?

[RussellCattle]

23. I had to laugh out loud at that one. We all could send....

...paper towels to Mar-a-Lago with our thoughts and prayers. But a few bucks to The Salvation Army in any Florida counties that are hit by the storm would be money better spent.

[RKP5637]

8. Trump orders non-nuclear bombs dropped on approaching hurricane!!!

[Maru Kitteh]

12. If Florida must go through this hell, they deserve at least one note of solace.

Every time the media calls it the "Winter White House" my television takes a hit from some random nearby object.

[Dennis Donovan]

15. It's an historic edifice. Long after Trump arrives in hell, this beautiful landmark will survive

[Maru Kitteh]

16. It'll never be that again. Sorry. It's now Graceland for the fucking Magats and Nazis

now, and in the future.

[GeorgeGist]

17. To each his own ...

I think it's a monument to bad taste.

Which is probably why Donald bought it.

[Dennis Donovan]

26. Historic is history...

I think the Vanderbilt mansion in Hyde Park, NY is gauche, but it's historic and applaud US NPS for its upkeep.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

19. It might have been that once, but Trump has tarted up the interior

to look like Hollywood's concept of a whorehouse. It will carry the taint and stench of Trump forever.

[Freethinker65]

14. Evangelicals won't let that happen. They will have prayed it away from their Lord's estate

And if by some chance it does take a hit, they will say it would have been much worse if they had not prayed, but the sins of the godless liberals were evidently too much.

It a win win.

I honestly hope Dorian just fizzles out and does very little damage, though a direct hit on Mar a Lago with no other damage or loss of life would be quite a miracle!

[Newest Reality]

18. That would be like Trump's

Picture of Dorian Gray

[malaise]

20. Perfect

Even the name is perfect

[Bayard]

21. Please let tRump be there!

I don't wish this on anyone else though. My husband is working on the southeast GA/FL border right now, and I'm pretty worried about it.

[malaise]

22. He's heading to Poland to meet with the

fascists

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

31. It turns out that he's just canceled the visit to Poland because of the hurricane.

Or, more accurately, because the hurricane is likely to hit his properties.

[malaise]

32. THIS

Bet someone is moving the safes about now

[smirkymonkey]

36. What does he plan to do about it?

Stand guard with nuclear weapons? What an idiot. He will never understand that there are simply some things that are out of his control.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

37. He'll stand on the shore and command the hurricane to go away

kind of like King Canute did with the tide. Although he was making a point, one that Spanky wouldn't get.

[RockaFowler]

24. I hope it doesn't hit there

I live 10 miles from Mar-a-lago

I will be working during the storm and I truly do not want anything to happen to my home.

[malaise]

27. I truly don't want anything to happen to you and his other neighbors

but it is looking ominous - take care please

[marble falls]

25. So long as it leaves the middle class and the poor alone.

[Skittles]

29. but we really cannot comment on that, you know

lest we be accused of wanting all of Florida to drown

[malaise]

35. We have no power

Dorian will run its own track

[Vinca]

30. If it does the King will completely drain the treasury and dip into Ft. Knox, too.

[treestar]

33. Where in Florida exactly is Mar-A-Loco?

City or county.

[malaise]

34. Palm Beach

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mar-a-Lago

[treestar]

38. Thank ye kindly!

I figured I could look it up, but figured you might know already!

[malaise]

40. Put your mouse on the red dot on the Wiki map

and then look at this cone.
https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/storm_graphics/AT05/refresh/AL052019_5day_cone_no_line_and_wind+png/204603_5day_cone_no_line_and_wind.png

No wonder he canceled the trip

[a kennedy]

39. Couldn't happen at a better place.

[Sugar Smack]

41. Watch him DENY the whole thing:

"Everything's fantastic, couldn't be better! Dorian completely missed us here!" & a crumbling Fellini set in the background.
