Because hey, why let a crisis where people could get killed go to waste, right Montel?

Nothing helps a bunch of people who are scared for their families, friends, possessions, and LIVES like a smug guy on Twitter using them to make a dig at the president and his supporters.
From a Texas conservative, non-Trump voter, let's please not make a possible disaster into something political.

A Texan asking Montel not to make this political – maybe he should listen.
Wow…really? I don't like the guy but he IS the President…a REAL election was won…following legitimate election rules. Let it go.

Wait…are you suggesting that Trump said that there's not a hurricane approaching Texas?

Huh, this tweet went over like a ton of bricks.

A lot of people were asking him to ‘be better,’ which doesn’t seem all that combative really.

Just FYI, this editor did engage Montel over the original tweet:
https://twitter.com/PolitiBunny/status/901076719754514432
And he proceeded to make fun of said editor’s name instead of actually engaging the content in question.
https://twitter.com/Montel_Williams/status/901078716260003840
Wow. Burn.
https://twitter.com/Montel_Williams/status/901078716260003840
And they wonder with responses and attitudes like this why Trump won.
Really disappointed in you with this response, Montel. You didn't need to bring Trump in it, but whatever. But this response is beneath you

And that’s what was most disappointing, we honestly do expect better from Montel.
