Trump Makes A Well-Received Trip Back To Texas



President Donald Trump went back to Texas Saturday and met with people displaced by Hurricane Harvey and upped the amount of federal support to the storm’s relief efforts.

The president visited Corpus Christi, Texas on Tuesday near where Harvey made landfall as a Category 4 storm. However, Trump was criticized for not meeting any victims and staying distant from the direct effects of the hurricane.

His Saturday visit seemed to be a rebuttal to these criticisms as he visited NRG Center in Houston to greet children and hand out food to people who were taking shelter there.

“Him being here and bringing global attention to everything that’s going on here, he brings us prayers from around the world,” Ybarra added, while Kenny Mercado, a volunteer, said Trump’s visit “brings spirit, brings hope.”

As for the Corpus trip, it's called staying out of the responder's way. With his security and support caravan, he'd of swamped the recovery operation. Now, he goes in and looks like the nation's grandpa (from the way he interacted with the kids).
