"...One who knows the Mississippi will promptly aver not aloud, but to himselfthat ten thousand River Commissions, with the mines of the world at their back, cannot tame that lawless stream, cannot curb it or confine it, cannot say to it, Go here, or Go there, and make it obey." ~ Mark Twain
Nothing from the All But Clinton channel
Nothing from the Clinton News Network
CBS has a report about it.
Nothing from PMSNBC either

Flood Survivor Gets Tearful As Trump Visits Louisiana.
From ABC
THE MEDIA = THE ENEMY! Make no mistake about that. This is such a war we are in with the media. At least Drudge has it front and center now.
Olive Gordan?? Did she tell Trump that when he's there, he's family???
Bwahahahaha!
That’ll never make it to prime time network news....
“People are complaining about Trump got those supplies at a discount... “
Because he isn’t an Effing moron. About damn time we got a businessman in the Whitehouse.
He is going to be a one term Governor!
Exactly. “Oh no, he knows how to stretch a penny!” We can’t have that in government, how will we pay off our donors???
Trump should challenge everyone to donate to the flood victims. That means everyone; Clinton, Obama, all the money flush politicians in DC, all the pundits. He should remind all the rich Manhattan elites that the country was there for them when the World Trade Center came down.
He already has made this disaster frontpage news; something the MSM and our President and Clinton wouldn’t do.
And one of his hitmen (Rudy, Perry) should remind people that Clinton used the Flint water crisis to win a primary election and then dropped them like a rock.
This was not your typical flood. The rain amounts overloaded the ability of the drainage capability and resulted in lots of areas flooding that had NEVER before flooded. In addition, the rains affected such a large area that the accumulated waters had nowhere to drain. This could have occurred anywhere in the country and would have ended with the same tragic results.
Watching some of the footage brought a bitty tear to my eye. When Trump says “we will rebuild” he knows of which he speaks. It always comes back to this... Trump is a builder. Quite literally, professionally, in every sense.
An excellent point .. and I don't doubt that he'll dig deep into his own pocket too.
Maybe that guy's house, but NOT the whole thing. He may be very rich, not that rich.
He is a major contributor to Sumaritan’s Purse That’s the group he visited
From what I've seen of the man, I'd surely bet that he would NOT make a statement like that unless he'd already decided to have the place fixed up for them.
Thank you for this link!!!!
