"Just like that, Trump produces worst presidential reaction to a natural disaster in modern history"




And just like that Trump produces the worst presidential reaction to a natural disaster in modern history.


Tweet from David Rothkopf in response to Trump's disgusting little rally and his comments -- "What a crowd, what a turnout" -- in Corpus Christi.

Rothkopf's earlier tweets on the same subject:




Makes Bush post-Katrina look heroic. He sees tragic suffering of Texans as a set, a backdrop for his never ending monologue about himself.






Trump: Enough about me. What did you think of my hurricane.






You have to hand it to Trump, he has a genius for producing new forms of stomach-turning, outrage-inducing offenses almost daily.




And he retweeted these tweets reacting to Trump...

from QZ's White House correspondent:




the @dallasnews WH pooler is pretty done with @potus's TX visit. No "expression of sympathy," came with mysterious crowd of fans:



from Kurt Eichenwald:




Jesus Christ. People dying, drowning, losing everything. And Trump is focused on how many people came to see him. This is a sickness.



from Bill Prady, executive producer of The Big Bang Theory:




I’ll take “Things a Soulless Demon Would Say” for 400, Alex.

They're good at making government fail. Well, and raiding the U.S. Treasury. They're bandits at that. So two things they're good at.
