As Florida braces for the impact of a second major Hurricane in less than a month’s time, both 2024 Presidential candidates appear poised to pounce upon this natural disaster and exploit it for political gains.
“I’ve had storms under both President Trump and President Biden, and I’ve worked well with both of them. She’s the first one who’s trying to politicize the storm, and she’s doing that just because of her campaign. She’s trying to get some type of an edge…”
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis
Hurricane Milton now rests in the Gulf of Mexico and is a category 5 with sustained winds of 155 miles per hour. The eye is expected to pass just south of Tampa Bay, delivering devastating category 4 level winds as it makes landfall tomorrow morning around 2 AM.
Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Estate is safely outside the cone of anxiety for Hurricane Milton, but the region should experience significant rainfall and wind gusts north of 58 MPH.
Milton is expected to be reduced to a category 1 hurricane upon entry into the Atlantic Ocean. Trump was forced to cancel an event in Miami that was supposed to happen tonight and has rescheduled it for October 18th.
Following the Presidential debate between Trump and Harris, Kamala elevated into a somewhat comfortable lead in the odds to win.
