Moore Asks If Mar-a-Lago Is a Hurricane Shelter, Gets Embarrassed When Trump Jr. Points Out Obvious

Donald Trump Jr. on Sunday castigated Michael Moore after the liberal filmmaker questioned whether President Donald Trump had opened up Mar-a-Lago as a shelter during Hurricane Irma.

"Has he opened up Mar-a-Lago as a shelter yet?" Moore tweeted on Friday, referring to Donald Trump, who has come under fire for his weekend trips to Mar-a-Lago since becoming president.

Trump Jr. responded with a tweet of his own on Sunday, accusing Moore of contributing to the "narrative."

"It's on an island on both the ocean & intercostal and in a mandatory evacuation zone… probably not the best idea, but you know, narrative!" Trump Jr. wrote.

The Mar-a-Lago resort, as well as the whole island of Palm Beach, was ordered to evacuate on Friday as Irma's winds and storm surge approached the area.
