A few days ago I wrote that President Obummer had a case of senioritis because he could not leave his Martha's Vineyard vacation to show the flag in flood-ravaged Louisiana ... see: No Fly Zone. So Donald Trump stepped into the void and, with his running mate, Mike Pence, is there today exhibiting his concern and acting presidential ... showing how he might behave if he were to win in November ... see: NOLA Article. And even Hellary outdid her former boss ... at least she (or Huma) picked up her smart phone and called the Democrat governor of Louisiana, John Bel Edwards, to show whatever concern she could muster. The optics of this contrast has the Democrats tied in knots. Governor Bel Edwards has covered for Obummer ... saying that things would not be helped if the president came there (same that was told to George W. Bush in 2005) ... and added that Trump was grandstanding with his visit.
The sweet, sweet irony of this story has me smiling ... at least until the national media either ignores this story or regurgitates the DNC talking points on tonight's TV news ... making Trump and Pence look like political hacks ... and somehow spinning Obummer's lassitude into caring competence.
This just in: Obummer will visit Baton Rouge this coming Tuesday ... after his vacation is over four days from now. I strongly suspect the nightly news will cover this visit with great drama.

The sweet irony is all in your head. Chump already looked like a fool with his staged "helping" to unload trucks. Ponce looked equally hackish. For you to even think that this is the real Chump makes me smile.
I suppose that that smile is your umbrella ... sheltering you from the deluge of hypocrasy and double dealing on the part of your numbskull nabobs.
No, it's the kind of smile that comes, unbidden, when you realize that you are the smartest bulb in the drawer
I just heard a neat quote on Book TV ... "A friend is one who insults you to your face, while an enemy is one who insults you behind your back." Are you striving to be my BFF?
From Urban Dictionary: "BFF has two definitions the most common of which is : Best Friends Forever the other is the complete opposite and is: Big Fat Fuck."
I like the second choice. Of course you could insult me to my face AND behind my back.
