I know you wouldn't say the same thing about Obama or Hillary.

I'm not sure what Trump, Obama, or Clinton can do at this point. The best thing people can do is focus on what they can control and leave the political BS to the politicians. If any of those 3 come to town your LEOs and first responders are now responsible for security details. I think LEOs focus should be on safety and looters, not some political peeps.

IDGAF if it's Trump, Clinton, Obama, or fricking Putin. I don't want any politicians coming around yet. The area is still in the process of recovery and they're going to be blocking up traffic and hampering progress. Think of everyone who is spending all of their time fixing their homes that needs supplies, but can't access them in a timely manner because Trump wants to wave and take pictures to look good. What about the LEO resources that will be spent to parade him around when they could be out keeping looters at bay?

I love how people just expect rich people to just give away their money like it's nothing.

It's funny how people here act as if it's not completely absurd to expect a rich guy from NYC to donate A MILLION DOLLARS

Has the Governor said anything about Obama's lack of fricks to give?

Exactly!!! just remember what happened w/ Bush in Katrina when he flew over Nola first. Media went crazy & Sen Mary Landrieu threatened to punch POTUS! Where is the outrage for Obama?!?? Mofu is playing fricking golf in Martha's Vineyard...What a double standard!

So people have been complaining about the lack of coverage of this awful disaster.. Now the biggest name in media/politics is coming to town, which will undoubtedly bring TONS of coverage of the devastation... and people are complaining?

Who cares which politician it is? All I hear on CNN is Ryan Lochte right now.

Didn't JBE grant authority to the Sheriff to enforce a curfew in EBR bypassing the mayor?

Holy fricking hyperbole. Trump isn't going to have an entire police force escorting him around and shutting the whole fricking town down all day.

He may have a few local units and an intersection may get shut down for a few minutes.

For fricks sake, you people are acting like everything in Baton Rouge has to come to halt because Trump is here.

Trump's plane touches down at BTR and immediately CNN ads an entire Louisiana Floods section to their homepage.

Boom.
