And we hope that it doesn't turn into a mere photo-op

No, that's scheduled for Tuesday... when the Marxist, Mooslim, Kenyan, Steaming Pant Load, Sissy Boy, Race Baiting Poverty Pimp show up... too little, too late.

La. gov tells Trump to volunteer or donate instead of coming for photo-op

Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards said Friday that GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump is more than welcome in the state if he plans on helping flood victims, but not if it’s just for a photo-op to gain voters.

“Donald Trump hasn’t called the governor to inform him of his visit,” the Democrat’s office said in a statement. “We welcome him to LA, but not for a photo-op.”

Mr. Trump and his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, are expected to head to Baton Rouge on Friday, but the campaign has said little about their plans in the flood-stricken state capital.

“Instead we hope he’ll consider volunteering or making a sizable donation to the LA Flood Relief Fund to help the victims of this storm,” the governor’s statement added.

The Advocate, the state’s largest daily newspaper, issued an editorial Thursday calling on President Obama to cut his vacation in Martha’s Vineyard short so he could assess the damage in person, but the governor said a presidential visit would divert emergency resources that are already spread thin.

“Quite frankly, that is something I don’t want to go through right now,” Mr. Edwards said at a news conference Thursday afternoon. “While the president is welcome to visit, I’d rather he give us another week or two. And then he can visit.”

Louisiana is #2 in lightning strikes.

Is this the real reason Hussein is fearful of this state? He knows The Hand of God is gonna strike him down.
