Calm down everyone! I've been assured that governor Ron DeSantis will be safe inside the hurricane shelter in the governor's mansion, which will itself be quickly rebuilt, at taxpayer expense, in the event of anything catastrophic. He will be FINE! Go back to what you were doing, Floridians!

No worries, Floridians. Desantis has a plan to oppress gay people even harder, which will make the hurricanes stop.
Remember, hurricanes happen because of WOKE!
I would have assumed he was already on route to Martha's Vineyard.
Yah, Meatball Ron won't be anywhere near that shitshow. He'll be off in Cali, rejecting FEMA assistance remotely.
Do we do "thoughts and prayers" for this, or is it "you have to get over it"?
It's too soon to discuss disaster relief.
There are too many hurricanes already happening to consider rebuilding.
I thought their god only sent natural disasters after the gays.
I'm going to wear a hurricane pin on my lapel.
I think it calls for an impromptu vacation to Cancun, leaving a dog behind to hold down the fort.
Has anyone ever thought about moving Florida further away? it seems to keep getting hit by hurricanes. Seems like it would be a win-win for everyone.
NOAA experts say the hurricane could be narrowly avoided if Trump can win the election and reclaim his presidential Sharpie.
You mean out towards the Abacos in the Bahamas?
Someone call Lorena Bobbitt!
Maybe somewhere between Australian and South Africa, and 10,000' down.
Are you saying we should tow it outside the environment?
Can we all calm down and start by determining the storm’s gender conclusively, before bothering with things like “aid” and “disaster relief.”
I wish they would put the path projections further towards the top. Looks like it will be traveling north out of the Gulf right at Tallahassee.
