DONALD TRUMP Heads to Louisiana Tomorrow – While Obama Vacations, Hillary Rests
Gateway Pundit ^ | 08/18/2016 | Jim Hoft

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and running mate Mike Pence will visit flood-damaged areas of Baton Rouge, La. Friday.

Record flooding across Louisiana has killed at least 13 people. Over 85,000 people have registered for federal disaster assistance, more than 30,000 have been rescued, and an estimated 40,000 homes have been damaged.

Trump addressed the flooding at a rally in Charlotte, N.C. Thursday night, calling Louisiana “a state that is very, very special to me.”

“The MSM will play this as pandering, and even as causing a distraction that hinders ongoing efforts.”

What would the MSM say if Trump was a no-show?

He would turn over his campaign fundraising website for 24 hours, ask people to donate, and tell the country this is how Americans help each other. After the last 8 years a refresher course is necessary.

I've been for Trump since the beginning, but this makes me nervous.

No worries--they liars in the media can criticize him for pandering but Trump is not the president and shows up anyway. Way too much upside for his visit there for the spin meisters to propagandize.

The staff have to be so pissed that they are going to have to make excuses for the next few weeks.

Well, she has no real chance of winning Louisiana, and the media won’t criticize her for not going.

Good intention and he cares. That’s what matter. Optics.
Obama had done nothing , only give speech and go back playing golf.

Hillary doesn’t have *TEMPERAMENT* or *STAMINA* to be President of the United State. She is napping again.

Trump will come up with something—listen to what is happening is best—show he cares—he has done this in the past. He is starting to act like a president, holding a “cabinet” Meeting, being Briefed, now visiting a disaster area. All he needs is to meet with community leaders for half hour, give a short talk, and be photographed at some flooded places and greet for flood victims. Maybe organize a fund raiser to help the folks. I think he will do some good—more than Obama—who isn’t even there.

Very presidential.....

I will put my prophetic hat on here and just say - Mr. Trump has a God-given opportunity to begin leading the country from the outside by taking whatever actions he can to bring influence into every situation. -

Detroit - Economics

Milwaukee - Law and Order

Charlotte - Humility and Honesty

Louisiana - Compassion

Yes BHO is not running for office, so he is done. HRC is old and tired and very likely very ill, so she is done.

I am signed up for tomorrow night's visit to Virginia - So psyched.
