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.



BR traffic gets especially all out of sorts anytime anyone of note comes around.

Just didn't see the point. So 1 out of the thousands of celebrities have done this.

And let's not act like Taylor Swift didn't do this to also help herself

When did the national news start providing more coverage about the flood?

Aside from family members, I only knew how severe the weather was only because Univision reported it.

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

This.

More attention means more leverage in congress for flood relief. More aid.

Trump and eventually Hillary will be there before Obama even gets off the golf course.

Really don't need a big hoopla with that idiot coming in to do nothing but expend state resources blocking off traffic amidst all of this.

Like JBE said, if he's going to lay down 500 k - 1 mill cash, then come on down.

If he;s just going to walk around with that fricking hairdo, no.

I'd say that any publicity is good, but about the last publicity I think you want in Trump.

JBE is right, as usual.


8 pages late, but what a fricking retard you are. Holy shite.

BR traffic doesn't need any help to be a complete clusterfrick.

Someone being in town for a rally is a lot different than this. Since there won't be large congregations of people, his SS detail is sufficient to protect him with a couple of local units to escort. Not a big deal.
