<div id="article-body"><p>Hurricane Harvey has hit Texas, and the pictures of the flooding are heartbreaking.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/US/harvey-unprecedented-flooding-expected-inundates-houston-area-kills/story?id=49432077" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Hurricane Center</a> has reported that at least 50 inches of rain have fallen in some areas &#8211; and one meteorologist even estimated that <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/US/dead-harvey-continues-churn-texas-extremely-flooding-unfolding/story?id=49432077" target="_blank" rel="noopener">340 <em>billion </em>gallons</a> of rainwater have fallen on the state. Another meteorologist estimated that the figure was between 340-370 billion.</p>
<p>Just take a brief look at some of the damage done below&#8230;</p>

<p>Three Texans have died thus far, and Governor Greg Abbott has declared a state of disaster in <a href="https://gov.texas.gov/news/post/governor-abbott-adds-20-texas-counties-to-state-disaster-declaration" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fifty counties</a>. President Donald Trump also signed a disaster declaration last Friday as the hurricane was making landfall, and has since held numerous meetings with cabinet officials to coordinate a response to the storm.</p>
<p>Early Sunday morning Trump tweeted that major rescue operations were underway &#8211; and news later broke that he&#8217;d be visiting the state on Tuesday.</p>

<p class="speakable">President Trump will visit the state of Texas on Tuesday, the White House confirmed Sunday.</p>
<p class="speakable">Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said the White House is still working to coordinate logistics for the trip with state and local officials.</p>
<p>The president praised the government response to Hurricane Harvey, including emergency crews that have rescued &#8220;thousands,&#8221; as stormwater rises and strands residents across the state.</p>
<p>&#8220;Great coordination between agencies at all levels of government. Continuing rains and flash floods are being dealt with,&#8221; Trump <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/901777333513854976" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tweeted</a>. &#8220;Thousands rescued.&#8221;</p>
<p>The storm hit the state’s Gulf Coast as a Category 4 hurricane late Friday and continues slowly to move northwest as a tropical storm, with steady rain that is flooding homes and streets</p></blockquote>

<p>This marks the first natural disaster that the Trump Administration has faced. And if you remember how Barack Obama responded to the last one, it&#8217;s good for our country he&#8217;s no longer president. When historic flooding came to Louisiana in August of 2016, leaving 13 dead, what did Obama do?</p>
<p>He didn&#8217;t end his Martha&#8217;s Vineyard vacation soon enough, and <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2016/08/23/politics/obama-louisiana-tour-criticism/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">didn&#8217;t visit the state until it was too late</a>.</p>
<p>Thankfully, President Trump isn&#8217;t make the same mistake.</p>

<p>That stupid muslim kenyan should be brought to justice for many of his anti-American, non-professional and treacherous acts. God punished America with the marxist Obummmer and the 8 years reign-of-terror. Wake up America, hopefully you did!</p>

<p>Living in this disaster area I&#8217;ll make a couple of things clear. Our governor has already stated that he&#8217;s spoken to president trump and several of his department heads and they have offered all the help we need. Truthfully though as a texan we are more than capable of looking after ourselves and are able to provide faster emergency services than the govt. is capable of providing. Their help is welcome as a follow up to allow a faster recovery after conditions improve but as for now we have a great many people out there rescuing those in need of shelter, food and clothing. We&#8217;re not a welfare state that depends on the govt. to provide for us unlike calif and some of the northern states. If you want to send anything then send beer and barbecue pits to keep us supplied while we rebuild.</p>

<p>Miracles never cease&#8230;&#8230;that&#8217;s ok&#8230;.as we speak, more info out about his Russia connection in the election&#8230;.oh Trump is going down! I am willing to bet that in 6 months he will have resigned or been impeached as Mueller has a lot of stuff about the campaign&#8230;.even the Washington Hotel is a place for the oligarchs to meet&#8230;.oh just watch tonight&#8217;s Rachel Maddow show&#8230;she uncovers a lot and shows proof of everything too! It&#8217;s not fake news Ted&#8230;.it&#8217;s real&#8230;it&#8217;s true that he&#8217;s going to be in trouble&#8230;&#8230;.do your research&#8230;I have &#8230;and TONS of it&#8230;&#8230;.I&#8217;ve read his books &#8220;art of the deal&#8221; and also watched the video on youtube &#8220;You&#8217;ve Been Trumped!&#8221; oh yeah&#8230;he is a conman! Watch the documentary&#8230;We here in NY can&#8217;t stand Trump as we know what he is all about! You never see Trump tweet about his 10 yr old son at all either&#8230;.not a very good father&#8230;.sad!!!!</p>

<p>Very well said, but we MUST remind our fellow citizens, how lucky we are that kenyan dick couldn&#8217;t get a 3rd term&#8230;. Thanks to our Founding Fathers, the kenyan hates so much. The devastation caused his &#8220;presidency&#8221; will last for years to come. UY Obummer!</p>

<p>He has been tweeting about the last election and himself and his penis instead of FOCUSING on the important things happening in our country. He is ALWAYS &#8220;Johnny Come Lately&#8221;. </p>

<p>I have skipped over your unintelligible drivel long enough. Your sophomoric rhetoric shows you to be either an uninformed 13 year old or a mentally deficient old maid with penis envy. Which is it, &#8220;Sue&#8221;? If you lack the intelligence to decipher my comments, I&#8217;ll bring it down to your level. Get off your fat arse and get an education before trying to communicate with individuals equipped with a triple-digit IQ and raised by two married parents. (By the way, my group has your REAL name and address &#8211; maybe your many admirers would like to send you love letters.)</p>

<p>So this will be yet another opportunity for the haters to find something wrong with what the President does.It wouldn&#8217;t matter if he parted the sea, the whining , sore losers would say the Russians did it, or make it a racist action.</p>

<p>So glad he will be coming. 1/4 of the Texas population (over 6 M) is affected. Haters will find fault with anything: if he comes, he&#8217;s damned. If he doesn&#8217;t, he&#8217;s damned.</p>

<p>Not only did he use the storm as cover for several major initiatives and announcements, so that no news on the latter is able to pierce through the Hurricane coverage, but he has also handled the response as smoothly as possible. Poor W.</p>
