hurricane harvey, but donald trump seemed to be thinking on a different wave length right now. i think he s still angry about jeff flake questioning the lull, he s asking at john mccain, and he wants a kind of showdown in arizona. but at the very least this all could have waited for a week. he did it in the middle of a evening when the rest of the country should be watching what s going on and in the gulf of mexico. doug why do you say the president has a 72 hour window. the key thing i learned i wrote a book about katrina. in research and rescue you have to get to the people. once the electricity goes off in corpus christi area tonight for example, a lot of people are on ventilators, rest operators, they stayed, they thought they could weather the storm, but without the electricity, with continued flooding, it will be hard to get emergency operators to them, our u.s. coast guard which did almost flawless job in
