Trying to predict the next week's news cycle, all I have to do is ask myself, "how could Trump/Project 2025 make the effects of Hurricane Melissa worse?"

@cstross "How will perennial real estate bozo Donald Trump make a natural disaster worse?" is a question containing its own answer, I would have thought.

Erm …

… bomb the ships in the Caribbean that are transporting "supplies" to "migrants". Because the fake U.N. "illegal migrant organization" has steered its hurricane into the Gulf of America.

It's bound to be madder than that, though.

Maybe one of those Trumpist shops will sell mugs with an offensive "Trump sends the hurricane" slogan, or something.

Aaaaargh!

@cstross ‪tRUmp‬’s mere existence makes things worse.

@horqua Yes, it absolutely does: he rose to power by telling angry people their hatred was justified, and his mere existence is an enabler for their prejudice and rage. He doesn't have to *do* anything to make everything worse for everyone.

"I got it. I got it. Why don't we nuke them? They start forming off the coast of Africa, as they're moving across the Atlantic, we drop a bomb inside the eye of the hurricane and it disrupts it. Why can't we do that?"

@HighlandLawyer @cstross maybe they could be steered towards Mexico with a pattern of nukes to blow them in the right direction?
