        It's a big hurricane. We've had big ones before. I think you will have to provide more data before I'll be convinced. Data. Not emotion.

        There is absolutely nothing different about Hurricane Harvey from hurricanes that our planet has generated for all of recorded history.

        Hurricanes only started when we started driving SUVs. Mostly George Bush's fault really.

        Poor characterization! Strong relationships are with emergency managers & communities during disasters; it's NOT at the presidential level!

        #HurricaneHarvey is yet another #FakeNews climate change hoax by the #DeepState. Trump supporters should ignore warnings, go to the beach!

        Waiting for the government to save you is to be a bystander in your own life.
