Unfortunately, there's now a large demographic to whom "If you stay, you're gonna die" will sound like a threat of violence by the libs, who want to remove Trump-voters from their homes and herd them into concentration camps.

I hate that we live in a timeline where that is plausible.

I guess if there are people genuinely stupid enough to refuse to evacuate for that reason, they're going to raise the average IQ a little bit with their unnecessary deaths.
