Deflecting a small asteroid is also easier than a big one.
There are plans to do it and some have been tested by NASA and ESA (and China has not a planetary defense something).
And the zone with an impact risk is far from wealthy western nations, but located around the poorer regions of the equator, where people have fewer means to protect themselves. Asking the Trump administration does not seem to be a reliable option...
Verdammt oder vielleicht auch besser so. Wurde die steigende Wahrscheinlichkeit schon auf einen möglichen Zusammenhang mit Wahlkampfduellen oder Trump Tweets hin untersucht?

tl;dr: it's still very unlikely to hit. And there's zero chance we'll be wiped out as a species.
But if asteroid may hit MUMP together?
Alternativ MUMP should refuge with an exploding Space X Starship?!
