Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant said he had dispatched a letter to Trump pleading for help after four people were killed in his state. He said more 1,000 homes were damaged in Hattiesburg and surrounding Forrest County alone 239 of which were obliterated.
In Dougherty County, Georgia, where four people were killed and a toddler was missing, county commission Chairman Chris Cohilas said Monday that he has been "begging FEMA for boots on the ground," referring to the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
"I'm asking President Trump to cut through the red tape and get people on the damned ground here," he said.
Now folks in Georgia and Mississippi will get a chance to find out just what they bought for this pig in a poke.

But hey, one good thing. Those FEMA camps aren't to imprison the God fearing Christian republicans anymore

Said offer will cause Trump to come as well, and he will pretend to care while denying science and attacking the media. As long as the cheering goes on.

Tax breaks are more important than natural disasters. They better get used to laying in the bed they made.
