        Good thing the Democrat mayor contradicted the Republican governor by insisting people stay and get trapped. God knows what may've happened!

        They could. We only paid $700,000,000,000 just this year to the pentagon for "defense" yet there is no defense. We are left to die.

        Is Trump/@GOP prepared to handle such a breakout since no one with any integrity will work for Trump? There's not one expert on Trump's team
