      Think they might try to arrest a hurricane?

      Can we get tickets to that? Maybe a live steam?

            Yes but thankfully he instead chose to simply redirect the hurricane with his sharpie

              When my daughter sent us the projected path of Hillary, which goes over us, my wife sent back a sharpie-modified version that routed it away. So we should be safe.

          …. First useful thing magidoits have done.

          I think we need borrow some DNC political operatives. Maybe plant some FBI agents. With GoPros.

          For the movie. Title it “Useful idiots.”

      Ahhh, ha ha ha, it’s gone, it’s gone, it’s gone. Oh, it’s gone. All the shitty shows are gone, all the idiots screaming in the fucking wind are dead, I love it. Leaving nothing but a cool, beautiful serenity called…Arizona Bay. That’s right, when L.A. falls in the fucking ocean and is flushed away, all that it will leave…is Arizona Bay.

        Except that even with biggest earthquake ever, that won’t happen. The San Andreas fault is a strike slip fault, not a subduction one. At worst California will just move north, and not into the ocean.
