Just reported - Trump spent less than 20 minutes at the Flint Water Plant

So I guess he didn't really have time to do much assessing of the problem.

And, no surprise, his visit at Bethel United Methodist Church was 'not well received'. He spent just 10 minutes on the stage, there.

He actually walked off of the stage when people started asking him questions.

More people protesting than cheering.

This was a disaster, for Trump. I'm hoping Rachel covers it.
