We know it's coming so I will ask ahead of time...

What did Trump do during these two disastrous hurricanes that was so great?

I know he visited Texas twice and tried to show empathy but what else did he do?

From what I have read, he wants to cut FEMA and emergency funding so he can give a tax break to the wealthy??

Can someone help us out here?

I did notice that he did not "tweet" so much while people were under threat of the hurricanes.

somehow deficient prior to the hurricane? What was Trump thinking with that feckless comment?

It's probably killing him that the hurricanes have gotten more attention than he has

Look out, he'll make up for it
