Even if Trump is coming down for selfish reasons (which I don't think he entirely is) it'll still lead to a lot of good exposure for Louisiana and flood victims.

That's actually the central tenet of capitalism and the free market: Private greed leads to public good. Within reason. But I wouldn't expect leftists to understand that.

Katrina hit and Blanco was a one term gov. Let's hope the flood of 2016 does the same for JBE. How stupid can one person be? Whether you like Trump or not, his coming down can do nothing but shed more light on the situation and keep up the much needed national attention on the state.

Maybe it'll be on major news networks and several states will have a telethon. If trump is here and it's broadcasted then it makes OTHERS aware of the true devastation. And also LA in front of other headlines.

maybe a photo op with Trump touring the area will bring attention to the situation that is so terribly under reported in the news

We welcome him to LA, but not for a photo-op.


Well then, JBE better not show up but rather run the frick away from photo ops with Hillary Clinton for his own sake. I hope he's stupid enough to not heed this good advice.

JBE is a goddamn idiot and 2019 can't come soon enough.

Trump is likely going to speak which will be carried by every major national news network. He's likely going to call out the administration and media for not doing their jobs and ignoring this situation. Since our illustrious governor has reminded us at every chance he's gotten how broke we are, we are going to need federal dollars to do things like reopen schools. Trump calling out people makes them respond and pay attention.

The appropriate question Louisiana residents should be asking is why our governor hasn't already been doing this. Nice to see that toeing the party line is more important than the needs of your residents


But Vitter banged a hooker and all.....

I just hope Obama will soon make a statement about Gabby Douglas being treated horribly by racists on social media and the double standard evidenced by Lochtegate

That's BS. How many people are going to expect President Trump to give them his money just because he has it. What would Edwards expect Obama to do if he came off the golf course to visit LA. He certainly wouldn't be writing a personal check or ripping carpet out of homes.

A lot of Dems are also victims in this flooding so I guess it doesn't matter to them

Blame bible thumpers and women being mad that Vitter just wanted the finest and hottest pussy on the market.

Oh and falling for the conservative blue dog democrat schitck to help tide over low information republicans helps too.
