Earlier we told you that the mayor of East Palestine, Ohio called President Biden’s trip to Ukraine a big slap in the face, but the area did end up having one presidential visit.
Former president and current presidential candidate Donald Trump went to East Palestine today and brought a lot of supplies with him. Trump got a warm welcome from the citizens of the town:

This small American town absolutely lit up today. The happiness Trump brought to the people here in East Palestine can NOT be overstated!
Thank you for coming, President Trump.
This is exactly what these great people needed. Many now have a newfound sense of hope. pic.twitter.com/6buaVEnKgi

The Left simply doesn't understand how much this means to a huge section of the American public, who feels repeatedly abandoned by Democrats and much of the mainstream media. https://t.co/Qnm8nVH3jc

It sounds like some Ohioans got fed too:

Update: The McD’s was for first responders:

Enjoy that, East Palestine residents!
Trump also chided Pete Buttigieg for not having yet shown up in town:

Trump ended up shaming the Biden administration into having to pay attention to East Palestine, so guess what’s going to happen tomorrow:
U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg will be traveling to East Palestine on Thursday, a day after former President Donald Trump’s visit to the area.
Buttigieg plans to meet with community members affected by the Norfolk Southern train derailment, receive an update on the ongoing investigation by the National Transportation Safety Board, which is expected to issue its initial findings on Thursday, and hear from USDOT investigators.
He will be joined by Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) Administrator Amit Bose and Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) Deputy Administrator Tristan Brown.
In closing, here’s the “compare/contrast” of the week:

“Buttgiggity”
Mr Dumbass will get a reception bigger than Trump. Only the words and gestures will be quite a big different. The locals should tie the dumb***t down and force some local water down him.
And the watch the little turd die.
The entire town shows up for Trump. Pete will have a private meeting with a dozen aides
Nobody would want to shake Butigieg’s hand, worried about where it was and what it was doing five minutes earlier.
Buttigieg will blame Trump.
No don’t hurt the little fudgepacker. Actually just stop his car and turn him around. Deny him entry into EP. Maybe escort his sorry ass back to DC and drop him off at Joey’s House.
If I were Buttigig I would NOT blame Trump in this town, HOWEVER that little gat POS is so damned arrogant he will AND he will deserve the response he gets from this town!!
Where were your hands?
Between two pillows
Those weren't pillows!
Hope no Deplorable (i.e. Disposable...) shows up for Pothole Pete.
This is a big mistake. Usual for this administration. His visit will be contrasted with Trump’s and it will not look good.
I agree with you, but Pete will not be meeting with the actual town. He will be meeting with only fellow communists.
Buttigieg will preview the NTSB report, which was crafted to blame Trump's deregulation of the railroad sector.
Tell him to wash his hands in that Murky water and watch his skin dissolve like magic.
That's a joke, right? After our Ministry of Propaganda is done, they will make Buttwipe look like a savior.
True. You don’t really know where it has been or what it has grabbed.
I can only imagine what Buttgiggity will bring with him when he visits tomorrow. A king's ransom in flavored condoms, buttplugs, mesh T-shirts, and leather chaps. All of it about as useful as he has been in this crisis.
And FJB.
Buttihead should have been there on day one.
Mayor Pete said he had made a mistake by not informing Palestine residents how he felt about their plight. I kid you not.
So tomorrow, he will go up there and completely erase their fears and concerns, and tears of joy will flow from their eyes when the mighty prince descends from the sky and tells them how much he hurts for them. Wow, what a man.
“His visit will be contrasted with Trump’s and it will not look good.”
Absolutely. The media will be in one hilarious spin cycle on this one. Pete’s the most inept appendage of an historically bad administration.
so guess who's going there tomorrow)DeSantis? LOL!
That visit by Trump could have deflated a lot of DeSantis/Haley/Pence/Pompeo etc. supporters balloons. He was masterful, as always.
Tractor trailer loads of TRUMP bottled water from HIS hotels, paid for out of HIS pocket as well as cleaning/sanitation products.
