Trump's Detractors Are Wishing For Irma To Hit Mar-A-Lago On Social Media
There was one anecdote in particular that makes this issue particularly striking.
A certain older woman who had been envious of a neighboring aristocratic Marquesa now cheered that the Marquesa would have to settle for eating rice and black beans instead of imported delicacies.
She now was chatting with someone who did not share nor care for this woman's spiteful attitude.
She said, "Now that the Revolution has triumphed and that we are all equal, the Marquesa will have to settle for eating the same plate of black beans and rice like the rest of us little people.
Her conversational sparring partner then came up with a response that shook this older lady to her core.
"Yes, the Marquesa will now be reduced to settling for eating that plebeian dish of rice and black beans.

From the time that Trump began to own and operate that Florida resort, it's been making him money.
Moreover, as real estate itself has value, don't you think that Trump took the time to get that property insured with the best deal he could buy?
Moreover, let's assume that then that Irma destroys that property like a lot of these Trump haters wish for.
How well did you think he got that property equipped for, in advance, to be able to withstand most types of damage that a storm like this Irma could cause it?

How much protection did you get for your own property? How much protection were you able to get for it?
Isn't your plate full enough as it is, that you're now thinking of Donald Trump's plate?
Do you think that Trump is as vulnerable to natural disasters as you are?
Since that resort is a money-making instrument, he can deduct from his restoration expenses when he files his taxes.

Moreover, during the period he paid premiums on that insurance for that property, don't you think he was able to deduct those premiums as the cost of doing business from his taxes?
Now, those people who wish Trump ill - how good a deal did you get in buying the insurance for your own homes?

How well are your own homes protected? Shouldn't you be concerned enough with your own stuff, your own business?
Believe me, Mr. Trump has enough resources available to him and the manpower to see to it that this storm will do as little damage to his investments as possible. '
He certainly can afford to take far greater measures to secure his stuff than most of us can take to secure our stuff.

When I was a teenager, my mom told a story about begrudging other people you don't like.
It goes like this: In Cuba, when Fidel Castro entered in victory in Havana - there had been a number of people with aristocratic titles and with big money.
They opposed the Revolution and when Fidel came in, they split with whatever wealth they were able to take with them.

Unfortunately, a good deal of them lost real estate holdings like mansions, country homes, etc.
Some stayed on while they could and then when they realized that because of their social class positioning, they had better leave and so they left and took whatever they could with them.
It was in the early phase that many who had been on the other side, those who were of the lower social-economic classes and resented the superior positions and wished for them evil tidings. Jealousy and envy are terrible advisors!

You see, if we curse those who've hurt us then we put ourselves in danger of Christ's judgment. Jesus said in Matthew 5:22 "But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister will be subject to judgment. 1

Again, anyone who says to a brother or sister, ‘Raca,’is answerable to the court. And anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of hell." 2

She will no longer be in such a great position to choose her cuisine now that the Revolution has triumphed - not if she's going to choose to stay here in Revolutionary Cuba.
But think for a minute, my lady friend.
Where does that put you? She was eating the finest imported foods while you were settling for what she's now going to be forced to settle for.

But now that she's reduced to the level that us common people were at before the revolution won - what will you then be eating if she's now where you were at before? You will be eating crap!
And if she decides that this country, Cuba, is not for her now with the revolutionary regime in power, she's still able to get on a jet plane and scram. She can leave.

She knows she'll lose the real estate property that is hers still if she leaves and that poor people will occupy those lands and buildings.
But she won't be around to see it because she'll be in another country and live a lifestyle way above the lifestyle you'll have to settle for if you decide to stay here.
