Courtesy of Quartz:Trump held a mini campaign rally in Texas and forgot to mention #HurricaneHarvey victims https://t.co/hGrCRAo8Ck— Heather Timmons (@HeathaT) August 29, 2017
After the briefing, Trump did an impromptu rally type speech in front of a few hundred Trump supporters who somehow managed to know exactly where the president was doing the briefing.
He stood on a raised platform of some type. Couldn’t tell if it was a step ladder or not. But he was not on a truck. Spoke into a microphone.Trump to hurricane victims in Corpus Christi, TX: "Thank you everybody. What a crowd, what a turnout."

“I love you, you are special, we’re here to take care of you. It’s going well.”
“What a crowd, what a turnout.”
Reporters heard no mention of the dead, dying or displaced Texans and no expression of sympathy for them. The message was services are coming and Texans will be OK.
“Texas can handle anything,” POTUS said.
“We are going to get you back and operating immediately,” he told the crowd (this contradicts the “Long haul” Sen. John Cornyn has publicly discussed and the caveat from FEMA administrator long moments earlier that it’s going to be a slow process).
Trump did not meet with any of the flood victims, mention the deceased, nor offer anything of substance to those who are suffering.
But to be fair he did offer this tweet.
See? Everything's all better now.After witnessing first hand the horror & devastation caused by Hurricane Harvey,my heart goes out even more so to the great people of Texas!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 30, 2017
Of course that tweet was immediately followed by this one.
Yeah, why won't these magazines just let Trump make America great again?After reading the false reporting and even ferocious anger in some dying magazines, it makes me wonder, WHY? All I want to do is #MAGA!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 30, 2017

What more do these magazines want?
