On Donald and Laura

The following statements about Trump are beyond dispute:

  1. He desperately wants to have high TV ratings; and
  2. He thinks climate change is an insignificant problem at best, and a hoax at worst.

Hence, the irony of the prospect of having Trump’s speech on Thursday being upstaged by the landfall of what is likely to be a very powerful hurricane in Texas or Louisiana.

Having been through this on multiple occasions, I feel for the affected population, but for Trump, it’s meteorological justice.
