Trump visits areas hit by Cat. 4 Hurricane Laura that killed 16, left 650K without power
(Worthy News) – President Donald Trump on Saturday assured Texas and Louisiana that the federal government “will take care of you” as he toured areas hit by Category 4 Hurricane Laura, which killed at least 16 people and left more than 650,000 without power.
Trump met with first responders and local officials and was briefed on emergency operations and relief efforts in Lake Charles, Louisiana, and Orange, Texas, days after the storm with 150 mile-per-hour winds made landfall, according to USA Today.
“One thing I know about this state, it rebuilds fast,” Trump told Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards, FEMA Director Pete Gaynor, Acting Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Chad Wolf, and congressmen in Lake Charles, a city of 80,000 residents. [ Source: Christian Post (Read More…) ]
