Trump Urges People to Heed Hurricane Warnings: ‘Nothing Is More Important than the Safety of Our People’

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: "My fellow Americans, as hurricane Irma approaches, my administration is working closely with our state and local partners to help save lives, protect families, and assist those in need. This is a storm of absolutely historic destructive potential. I ask everyone in the storm's path to be vigilant and to heed all recommendations from government officials and law enforcement. Nothing is more important than the safety and security of our people. We are doing everything we can to help with disaster preparations. And when the time comes, we will restore, recover, and rebuild together as Americans."
