President Donald Trump’s reelection campaign cancelled a Make America Great Again rally set for Friday in Mississippi. As Hurricane Florence heads toward the east coast, the campaign determined cancelling the rally was the “safest decision.”
New York, NY – As Hurricane Florence approaches the east coast this week, Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. announced that the Make America Great Again rally scheduled in Jackson, Mississippi this Friday, September 14 is cancelled.
“Regrettably, we must cancel the planned Make America Great Again rally in Jackson, Mississippi this Friday,” said Michael Glassner, Chief Operating Officer of Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. “With Hurricane Florence on its way, we determined that this is the safest decision.”
"Those closest to the President needed 3 hours this morning to explain to T rumpp that Mississippi is on the Gulf Coast and not the Atlantic Coast, but that nontheless, he must seize on this opportunity to remain in the Nation’s capital and not be the eye of the storm. "
Safest? It was about safety, and not the optics of holding another Mini-Nuremburg rally in the most racist state possible while one hurricane trashes a critical swing state and another lines up PR for another smash?
Thing is, I actually believe that Trump was scared Mississippi could be hit by Florence and cancelled the thing in terror.
I thought FLorence was going to hit the carolinas, not Mississippi. Not sure why he is cancelling unless he thinks he might actually do something for the people hit or he wants to hunker down in D.C. ha ha , I make myself laugh. Could it be because all news will be on the hurricane and not on him?
He ran away in Puerto Rico. Why shouldn’t he do it on the Redneck Riviera?
He has to be on the Atlantic Coast to dispense all of the paper towels. That’s what Presidents do.
