Last night, Hurricane Idalia hit Florida with a massive wallop. One of the victims of the storm was the Governor's Mansion. An old massive oak tree fell on part of the residence. Casey DeSantis posted pictures of the damage on Twitter. Casey also indicated she was home as well as her three children. Thankfully, they are all safe.
100 year old oak tree falls on the Governor’s Mansion in Tallahassee — Mason, Madison, Mamie and I were home at the time, but thankfully no one was injured.

Thank God everyone is okay. @GovRonDeSantis is away working around the clock for the people of Florida while a tree is laying on his home. Praying for all impacted by the storm. https://t.co/wOUbLwCoLb

Y'all just don't get it - Humanity is in for a reckoning - it's absolutely no coincidence of why TEXAS and FLORIDA are suffering greatly - and it's only beginning

There always has to be the nasty person in the comment section who equates a natural disaster with some sin against humanity. Why must people be so awful?

Excellent suggestion for such a terrible comment.
Some of the comments on this post are vicious and vile. Grow up. Touch grass.

Leftists are the most miserable people in the world, after all.
So glad you're all safe.

Praying for Florida.
Thank God you're all safe. Such a shame when a beautiful old tree like that falls, but at least nobody was hurt.

Thank you husband on behalf of all Floridians for his amazing job preparing for this storm.#DeSantis2024
It’s an omen. God wants you to move to the White House.
— Jason Osborne (@Osborne4NH) August 30, 2023
Are there oak trees around the White House?
Glad everyone is safe.

Also, Trump later today on Truth Social: "I prefer governors who don't have trees fall on them." https://t.co/anWVL2ryRO
Why could we totally see this happening?
How long until someone alleges they faked the tree falling for sympathy? https://t.co/6EqzigQegQ

If a tree falls on the Governor's Mansion and someone doesn't use it to make a political joke, did anyone even hear it?

Doing your best Laura Loomer impression, are you?
Nobody is safe from the effects of Mother Nature! Thank goodness they are safe! https://t.co/ot6ovS2Vr4

In the end, Mother Nature always wins. Thankfully, everyone is safe and at the end of the day, that is all that matters.
