Donald Trump and running mate Mike Pence toured some the flood damage and briefly handed out food and supplies to victims. Trump says he has lengthy history with Louisiana and the visit was his way of helping out.

He's wearing a high-buttoned up shirt and a long-sleeved black jacket.  Note that most folks there (New Bern, NC) are wearing short sleeves, probably due to the heat.  He's wearing a BA vest under that shirt.  I don't blame him.

Aside from the occasional pugnacious tweet, this guy is doing the job the way it should be done, IMO.

Can Trump hand out foods and EBT cards, while wearing the MAGA hat? Campaign violation?

Nicely posed or staged photo, with womens and minorities.

The way it has to be done, post-Katrina. If you're Republican.

His only other alternative would be trying to slip in incognito. And what would be the point?

Or he could've just stayed in the WH.

It is from Aug 2016, when he was campaigning.  What violation?

I truly appreciate President @realDonaldTrump for taking the time to visit South Carolina and North Carolina today.

More importantly, I appreciate all the help and assistance he and his team have provided before, during, and after Hurricane Florence. 

The Trump Administration has had an ‘All-Hands-on-Deck’ approach to this since Day 1.

For that, I am truly grateful.
