TEXAS, USA — President Donald Trump said Sunday that he expects to visit Texas this week after deadly floods left at least 82 dead and dozens more missing across the state.

Trump told reporters Sunday that he will "probably" visit the Lone Star State on Friday. "We wanted to leave a little time. I wanted to do it today, but we'd just be in their way. Probably Friday," Trump said.

State officials announced Sunday that at least 82 were killed in the floods and dozens more were confirmed to be unaccounted for across the state. Trump's comments came after he signed a major disaster declaration on Sunday for hard-hit Kerr County to make federal funding available for those impacted.

"These families are enduring an unimaginable tragedy, with many lives lost, and many still missing," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "The Trump Administration continues to work closely with State and Local Leaders. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem was on the ground yesterday with Governor Greg Abbott, who is working hard to help the people of his Great State." The assistance can include grants for housing and home repairs, among other things.

1. Bringing paper towels?

He is an evil human being.

[AltairIV]

2. That was my first thought.

[eggplant]

42. I came here to say that.

[Paladin]

3. Well, fuck.

I was afraid of this: trump would never let an unspeakable tragedy go to waste---particularly when he and his gang of incompetents played such a large role in letting it happen. Big thanks for gutting the critical weather services, ass-wipe; hurricane season ought to be a lot of fun this year. The sonovabitch will probably even dodge good-sized protests here in Texas; people are so dispirited by all the death and destruction. That's all right---just as long as he and Governor Hot Wheels have a good time...

4. Trump loves disaster porn and the attention.

He can drag along ICE Barbie semi nude in costume too since
she really loves disaster porn.

[rpannier]

5. People down there need more suffering?

[slightlv]

24. I think he should stay well away from areas north and west of there.

He may run into my SIL, and she's spitting nails right now at him.

[twodogsbarking]

6. Please, no, they have suffered enough.

[twodogsbarking]

7. Is the golf course closed?

[Javaman]

8. thanks for the warning.

it's stupid enough here now, it'll be that much dumber on that day.

[marble falls]

9. Tell him to bring tombstones for his victims. He really ought to stay away. They take their "2nd amendment rights" ...

... seriously here.

[tanyev]

10. They gonna find some local supporters for a grinning, thumbs-up photo op?

[bluedigger]

11. I did not know he had a golf course there.

[Captain Zero]

12. Good, more travel for him. Get out the Tarot Cards and Ouija Board.

Maybe he can get in a round of golf in Texas?

[58Sunliner]

13. Sadistic pos wants to admire his handiwork. Maybe they should wrap the areas with crime scene tape.

[azureblue]

14. He didin't want to interrupt his golf game

he played over the week end..

[efhmc]

15. Dear Goddess, Haven't we suffered enough yet?

Raining again where I am and we are under a flash flood warning.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

16. Truckloads of Bounty paper towels coming with him?

[steelyboo]

17. He probably wants to be able to blame the victims for

Not being able to swim in person.

[Paladin]

18. As if Texas isn't suffering enough, already... (nt)

[ananda]

19. Gonna throw em some paper towels?

Sheesh

[mjvpi]

20. That was my first thought. He'll debut a line of Trump branded paper towels

[newdeal2]

23. He's replacing the Brawny model with his own face

🤢 Ugh I’m going to need some paper towels to clean up this mess

[ananda]

28. LOL. Well, I was thinking of this catastrophe as an opportunity...

for Trump to be a savior, and I'm sure he'd profit from it in some
way if he could.

He and his minions took control of FEMA, virtually decimated it,
and now he's trying to activate it again.

I wonder what FEMA will even do now.

[electricmonk]

21. Why this disaster and not all the others?

Six months in and this is the first one he's visiting or even acknowledged. Body count must not have been high enough in the other disasters. Maybe they didn't give him a chance to say "nobody's ever seen a disaster this bad." The "nobody's ever seen/heard" bit is his favorite phrase.

[slightlv]

25. Abbot is really far up trumps butt...

and trump LOVES the way he's handling his little "immigration problem." SIL said word she's heard is Abbott and trump wants to import crocodiles and put them in the Rio Grande.

Funny tho... I thought crocodiles only lived in salt water?

[Marthe48]

27. My m-i-l had dementia

In her last few years, that was her favorite phrase. Most days, most things were new to her.

[electric_blue68]

45. Because it's Texas; a big Magat State?

[appleannie1]

22. Any opportunity to give a rambling, hate filled oratory is a great thing in his book.

[Marthe48]

26. Hey, God

If there's any water left. Well, You know my heart.

30. Trump Won't Let Rising Death Toll In Texas Intrude On His Golf Fun

31. If you line up at the Kerrville Airport now, you might be able to catch a roll of paper towels!

Wait, it might not be as glorious as it seems. Probably a roll of toilet paper that has been handled first by President Poopy Pants. Suddenly my whole plan for the week isn't looking as wonderful as I planned it to be.

[MissouriDem47]

32. At Least

At least it won't interfere with his golfing weekend. That would have been too much of a sacrifice for him.

[turbinetree]

33. Is someone going to ask the treasonous POS what he got on his day of golf when this was happening

you know did he get another Bedminster Club Championship, hell he can take it down there and give it a surviving family member with that fucking red hat on .............pound sand Noem.........where is FEMA, NOAA...........oh yeah they are on the staff cutting floor ......and has for Abbott he likes to place razor wire in rivers..............like some sadistic POS.............he also can pound sand..............

[CaptainTruth]

34. He's too late.

[CaptainTruth]

35. Will he hand out Play-Doh?

Remember Luisianna?

[Deep State Witch]

36. Walking on Water

Considering that a lot of Texans in that area think that he's their Orange Messiah, maybe he'll try to walk on water?

[Martin68]

37. Bringing lots of paper towels.

[FakeNoose]

38. So ... does this mean Ted Cruz will cut his vacation short and show up in his home state?

Not that he cares one bit about Texas, unless Chump is going to be there and get all the TV time.

[Catherine Vincent]

39. Just watched a snippet of Trump

He mentioned President Biden. Of course he can't help himself.

[Beartracks]

40. Floods last weekend, and now Trump. How many plagues is TX supposed to endure?

[eppur_se_muova]

41. He's planning to hand out stickers ...

[red dog 1]

43. He may throw out rolls of paper towels to the flood victims; but he won't be giving out free bottles of his new perfume,

If they want those, they'll have to come up with $249 a bottle.

[electric_blue68]

46. BLARGH!

[lark]

44. The poor people of TX are being gaslighted again with his lies of no responsibility when it was his direct choice.

He knew gutting NOAA would hurt forecasting, but he hates us so much, and needed all of our money for himself and his billionaire fascist friends that he did it and now lies about it. Poor TX having to get hit twice by monsters, with the knowledge that they caused the deaths by their idiotic choices.

[republianmushroom]

47. IF, it doesn't interfere with his golf game.

Anybody, need a pair of high lift, white rubber boots. Contact White House.
