Americans Are Dying After Trump-Hating Houston Mayor Defies President’s Hurricane Warnings

Houston
Mayor Sylvester Turner is under heavy fire after he decided to use
Hurricane Harvey as a political weapon to make President Donald Trump
look bad. Turner, a hardcore liberal Democrat, reacted to the
president’s dire hurricane warnings, telling Southeast Texans to
evacuate, by making his own hurricane statement, and now, Americans are
dying. You’ll be completely shocked by what this idiot mayor told the
citizens of Houston, proving Democrats can never agree with Trump, even
if lives are on the line.
Houston Mayor Sam Turner hates
President Donald Trump so much he threw caution to the wind and tweeted
out statements about Hurricane Harvey to downplay what the president had
previously advised. On August 25th, it was quite evident that what
faced Southeast Texas was a wall of water of biblical proportions,
coming straight for them.

Trump immediately engaged his
administration to start emergency procedures. The president tweeted at
8:46 am on August 25th, “I have spoken w/ @GovAbbott of Texas and
@LouisianaGov Edwards. Closely monitoring #HurricaneHarvey developments & here to assist as needed,” followed by this tweet, “I encourage everyone in the path of #HurricaneHarvey to heed the advice & orders of their local and state officials.”

The
GOP Governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, was crystal clear in his message on
August 25th, “I would urge everybody who has the possibility to
consider evacuating as soon as possible.” Seeing the “Republican
response” by Trump and Abbott, Mayor Turner played Russian roulette with
the citizens of Houston, tweeting, “Ignore unfounded, unsourced weather
predictions that are frightening Houstonians, Get info from trusted
outlets.” At that point, everyone who had listened to the news knew a
hurricane worse than Katrina was headed straight for Houston, but it
mattered little to Turner, who found an opportunity to bash the
president more important than the safety of his citizens. Unfortunately,
that’s not all.

At the request of the Governor of Texas, I have
signed the Disaster Proclamation, which unleashes the full force of
government help!
While Trump was signing a national disaster
proclamation, Turner doubled down and tweeted, “Please think twice
before trying to leave Houston en masse. No evacuation orders have been
issued for the city. #Harvey.”
Turner himself was responsible for issuing the order of evacuation for
Houston, but instead of doing that, he tweeted out a politicized
message, and you guessed it, he never ordered evacuations. By the time
Harvey hit Houston, it was too late.
Thanks to Turner’s political
game playing, American citizens who could have gotten out remained
trapped. This includes the most vulnerable; namely, the disabled, the
elderly, and the kids. Even the local media could not ignore what Turner
did, or rather, what he refused to do. In a Texas Tribune article
titled, “Ahead of Hurricane Harvey, officials send Texans mixed messages
on evacuations,” they report, “Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner told
people living in the state’s largest city not to leave, citing ‘chaotic’
traffic from the 2005 evacuations ahead of Hurricane Rita.”

So,
the question becomes, was Turner’s blatant politicized reaction to
Hurricane Harvey something he did on his own or was this a larger
narrative that the leftists are plotting against Trump? There’s no doubt
Turner got his marching orders from the Democrats, who are hoping to
blame American deaths from a natural disaster on Trump. They’re hoping
for mass casualties like Hurricane Katrina, and they will then build a
bogus narrative to make it appear like Trump caused the whole thing.

So
far, the New York Times is reporting five are dead in Houston. That
number will only grow. There were adequate warnings to mobilize
emergency efforts to evacuate those most at risk, and Turner decided to
ignore them. Since Hurricane Katrina, emergency services have trained
for such a disaster as Harvey. But, when Democrats are more concerned
with politicizing events in a “gotcha game” with Trump, American lives
are expendable. This is how the globalists roll, but they are in for a
big surprise. Americans won’t be fooled by this game playing. We demand
answers from Turner and his Democratic masters. Blood is on their hands.
They must be held accountable for their crimes.

 WHY DID DEMOCRAT MAYOR ORDER HOUSTON, TEXAS STAND DOWN DURING HURRICANE CATASTROPHE?
 Despite governor’s recommendations, 
Democrat officials ignored him

Democrat Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner refused to issue
evacuation orders for the city’s 2.3 million residents, even after
Governor Greg Abbott had advised Texans to do so.
Despite Governor Abbott issuing a state of disaster
declaration last Wednesday for Harris and 29 other Texas counties,
Mayor Turner did not warn, inform or urge citizens to leave the area,
parts of which have now been catastrophically devastated by over 30
inches of rain.

On Friday, Governor Greg Abbott advised,
“Even if an evacuation order hasn’t been issued by your local official,
if you’re in an area between Corpus Christi and Houston, you need to
strongly consider evacuating.”
“If I were living in the Houston region, as I once did, I would decide to head to areas north of there,” he added.

On the other hand, “Mr. Turner, a Democrat, and other local officials
urged residents to stay in their homes as Hurricane Harvey, which has
since downgraded to a tropical storm, approached Houston on Friday,”
reported The Wall Street Journal.
On Friday afternoon, Mayor Turner reiterated that no evacuation order had been issued for Houston.

aftermath of days of rain, daring water rescues, entire highways
underwater and flooded out neighborhood streets.

On Friday ahead of the heavy rains, Harris County Judge Ed Emmett said, “The safest thing is to stay where you are and ride out the storm… We don’t anticipate any kind of massive evacuation.”
Emmett,
a Republican top emergency official, later called criticism of the
decision not to evacuate “outrageous,” and claimed residents would have
laughed if they’d have issued the order.
“To suggest we should
have evacuated two million people is an outrageous statement,” Emmett
said. “What we’re facing now is an effort to respond to a tragedy… We’ve
never seen water like this before.”
The judge went on to say an evacuation would have been “totally nonsensical.”
“If
we had gone out three days before and said, ‘we want four million
people to leave Harris County,’ that would have been a totally
nonsensical thing to do,” he stated.
Hurricane
Harvey has now been blamed for five deaths in the Houston area, and is
the most major test the Trump administration has faced.
On Monday, city officials finally ordered mandatory and voluntary evacuations from certain areas.
Considering
the Democrat playbook admittedly calls for “not letting a serious
crisis go to waste,” some speculate Houstonians were sacrificed to make
Trump look bad.

Was the mayor just negligent, or was this a stunt designed to embarrass Trump?
