Kim Campbell, the former prime minister of Canada, has apologized for tweeting that she was rooting for Hurricane Dorian to hit President Donald Trump’s private Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida.
Campbell caused controversy with her Wednesday post about “rooting for a direct hit” on the venue.
“It was intended as sarcasm-not a serious wish of harm,” wrote Campbell, who became Canada’s first female prime minister in 1993 and who has previously called Trump a “motherfucker.” Trump is a climate change skeptic whose policies have infuriated many environmentalists. Separately, when Dorian appeared headed to Puerto Rico he tweeted the American island is "one of the most corrupt places on earth. Their political system is broken and their politicians are either Incompetent or Corrupt."
Those sentiments led many Trump critics to publicly hope the storm steers toward Mar-a-Lago — although that would also mean disaster for nearby middle-class and low-income neighborhoods.
"I'm rooting for a direct hit on Mar a Lago!" former Canadian Prime Minister Kim Campbell tweeted Wednesday. Campbell, who served as prime minister for four months in 1993, later dialed that back, tweeting, "I know Palm Beach well and am sorry if it gets a big hit." Still, she said she hoped Dorian would "shake up Trump's climate change denial."

(2) Then this hurricane rampaging into Florida must be a hoax - why bother?

Donald Trump should say he was damned wrong - calling the Global Warming a hoax and blatantly cancel his commitment in Paris Climate Deal.
Karma is catching up on him.
He should apologise and vow to rejoin his commitment in Paris Climate Deal.

Look like the 4 Hurricane - Irma, Harvey, Maria, Nates --- is not a sufficient karma lesson for Donald Trump and its supporters.
