Do you deny that Trump went to Louisiana?

While your girl didn't because it would be a "distraction"?

That isn't the question I asked you. Why the deflection?

You're the one that's deflecting.

Because the fact that Trump went to Louisiana and Hillary didn't is indefensible and you know it.

Trumplethinskin decided a photo-op was more important than letting emergency services go about their jobs. I smell the fetid stench of desperation emanating from the Trump campaign. Must be the polls.

She's right. I worked "flood fight" for the Corps of Engineers several times in Louisiana in the mid '70's. You're busy as shit inspecting damage, writing cost estimates, negotiating with contractors and inspecting their work. Dog & pony shows for politicians so they can act like they care are a waste of time and resources.

If an administration has a good FEMA management team (Obama does and Bill Clinton certainly did (James Lee Witt become known as the first really good FEMA manager)), whereas Dubya's sucked big time), it's best to get out of their way.

If this new campaign manager is the one that came up with the idea of Trump going to Louisiana, then I'd say he's already earned his paycheck.

Trump looked Presidential.

But I will admit, Clinton looked like a President too.

OK Chief.

You win.

I'll just take the bump in the polls that Trump is going to get for this and move on.
