Donald Trump gets a warm welcome from victims of the Baton Rouge flood as he toured the devastation with Republican nominee for Vice President Mike Pence.

"We knew you would be here, Mr. Trump," one woman yells to the candidate. "We knew you would be here for us!"

Hillary is taking a nap.
She will copy Donald as soon as the poll results are in.

Dear Leader was thinking about them the whole time that he was having champagne, cheese, and French snacks that 98% of the world can’t pronounce.

Several from our church denomination lost everything-one pastor lost parsonage, contents, car, etc. They only took what they could carry. THAT news has been nowhere except a few I facebook with.

I agree with you...but don’t forget this either: the Obama and Clinton factions really do not like each other. Telling Hussein that Clinton was better truly would get under the man child’s thin skin. :)

I’ve never understood the need for the President to visit natural disaster sites.

A person with that large of an entourage is only going to make it more difficult on the people working to deal with the disaster. IMO, it would be better to let FEMA represent the Administration. The FEMA employees (supposedly) know what they’re doing and wouldn’t get in the way.

But what do I know?

" A devastating flood in Louisiana and Mississippi has destroyed 40,000 homes and killed 13 people this week."

If blacks burn down entire blocks of cities where they
live over some imagined "injustice", the federal government
can't wait to provide multiple billions of
dollars to the cities and their arsonists to rebuild
the place.

Forty thousand homes are wrecked by a flood
in the South -- I haven't heard a peep about the Feds
providing anything for the people affected. No Media
outcries for help, no FEMA interviews on CNN, no self righteous
Democrats demanding action and money to help
those folks --- nothing much at all. Only Trump
concerns himself with the problem. And he is
accused of exploiting the disaster for political reasons.

That’s good for me. The media will flush it out though. Will accuse him of photo op without helping. Help behind the scene and let the media find it out on their own.

The mediawhores created this perception monster so now every president needs to go and show himself in front of a disaster!

Unlike that narcissistic donkey in the White House I think DJT actually cares about more than photo ops.

You know, I’m tearing up watching him with those people in Louisiana, and how they flocked to him. “we knew you would come...we’re glad you aren’t playing golf”...... This man truly cares.....he’s not in it for the money, the fame, etc. He already has all that. he doesn’t need the aggravation that running for office entails. God bless and protect Donald Trump and Mike Pence!

That's the exact line (concern) paid DNC trolls are parroting all over the internet today...

Maybe she can get a ride with Sean Penn...
