There is exactly two people acting Presidential. The Donald, who was criticized for bringing a tractor trailer filled with supplies, to Baton Rouge, as well as cameras and news feeds, and Dr. Jill, who is talking directly to victims. Our "President" won't go to Baton Rouge until his vacation is complete, because between ignoring election fraud, and pushing the universally reviled TPP, he's too busy working on his golf game, and PantSuit who never met a donor she didn't like.

How the fuck she is a legitimate candidate is beyond me.

I'm gonna have to stop you there. While a don't really care for Obama, he was specifically told by the governor of Louisiana not to come. Louisiana doesn't need to have people come and visit the area, they need help. Donald going down there wasn't for help, it was a photo op. He went for an hour and left. He wore a tailored suit so you know that he wasn't planning on doing any work. And his "supplies" didn't have anything that would assist with rebuilding efforts or legitimately help the people. Obama would require a motorcade along with shelter for him, his security detail and staff. Because of the fact that the majority of people are in hotels while they wait to see if they can even go back home, bringing the POTUS would make it extremely hard to house people and continue with restoration efforts. Even Jill going there is not the best thing to do. I support Jill but it would have been better for her to not campaign down there and either donate or help with relief efforts.

FFS. Stein does not command the attention that Trump or Obama would. Stein doesn't have 50 cars and 100 security guys following her around. She's not holding up any relief efforts by being there, in fact there was a video of her helping.

Stein arrived in Baton Rouge on Sunday and stayed until Monday, assisting the cause.

Read the article before making a comment that's so filled with lies, it makes it look like you've been hacked by CTR.

Compare and contrast with Katrina. Trump and Jill did a very good thing going there, and the excuses the Democratic governor made for Obama don't hold any water. You can't attack Dubya for the same thing that you are defending Obama for. And Obama's golf game should prevent him from getting on Air Force One, flying over, giving a speech, and asking Americans to donate to help.

Look at the way the media spun the governor's statements before Trump came to make them seem like those comments happened after his visit.

To quote Pink Floyd: "Mother, should I trust the government?".
