Donald Trump and Melania Trump Plan Saturday Visit to Hurricane Harvey-Damaged Houston
Breitbart ^ | 31 Aug 2017 | CHARLIE SPIERING

President Donald Trump will return to the areas hit hardest by Hurricane Harvey, according to the White House. White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders confirmed to reporters that both the president and First Lady Melania Trump would travel to Texas and Louisiana.

“I believe, as of right now, tentatively, he plans to be in the Houston area of Texas and possibly Lake Charles, Louisiana,” Sanders said, cautioning reporters that the details and locations of the trip were still under consideration.

The news was later confirmed by Vice President Mike Pence, who also visited areas hit by the storm in Texas.

Trump’s Homeland Security adviser Tom Bossert joined the press briefing to reassure everyone that the president was focused on the recovery efforts in the state.

“We’re going to have Houston and Texas bigger, better, and stronger than it was before this storm, and the resilient nature of the American people is just awesome,” he said.

Will the MSM cover this in a positive way?

“will return to the areas”

Why? There isn’t a thing he can do down there. He has eggs to lay and worms to scratch elsewhere.

The only thing he can perceive to do there is share their grief, if they have any. I know if it was me, and my family was unharmed, I don’t need grief counselors or people to try to give me a shoulder to do so. I need someone to assist me in determining what I can do to recover and replace my property. Trump can’t do that. I didn’t vote him to be a wet nurse. Get back to work.

Please Melania wear Wellies and don’t look hot. On second thought she would look hot in Wellies. What’s a girl to do.

To really blow their minds, she needs a neat pair of Doc Marten’s rain boots...maybe the flowered ones.

These are beloved by the hipousie. They would become conflicted.

I disagree. There’s nothing wrong with going down there to show that he’s in charge, as long as he doesn’t get in the way.

Max flooding doesn't usually occur until after a storm ends. It takes a while for drainage from higher elevations to take place. PLUS... it's awfully hard to see anything when it's pouring rain and 50 mph winds.

The time to get the best overall 'picture' of the situation is over the next few days.

Funny how they didn’t care about Mooch Michelle wearing $600 tennis shoes when feeding starving people.

Typical liberal media.

She needs to wear some really cool western boots with lots of tooling and stirrup heels. And of course jeans tucked into them so all the tooling shows. Then a nice rodeo belt with silver buckle. It would really make them freak out, because it’s so “Texas.” But it would sure be practical! Nothing like a good pair of boots and jeans for wading through muck.

Melania should wear her heels. Texas women dress well and they’ll appreciate it, even if the drippy women of the major media hate her for it.

That said, why do liberals hate heels? Nobody has to wear them, but if you’re used to them, they’re comfortable. And no matter what your legs look like on their own, they look about 100 times more fantastic when they’re in heels. But maybe libs hate looking good.

Karen Pence was with the VP in Corpus Christi today, and we still don't know what shoes she had on. This is vitally important!

We must know! - MSM
