Seems like left-right views are, at least temporarily, taking a back seat to help thy neighbor. It’s truly a sight to behold…I’m not there (Houston) but have several friends in the area. All are in dry areas, but no power.
 
’It’s historic, its epic, but I tell you Texas can handle anything’: Trump and Melania lift spirits with visit to Corpus Christi as worst rainfall in American history brings Lone Star State to its knees
• The president and first lady were in Corpus Christi, Texas and then headed to Austin before a return to DC
• Trump told a crowd of Texans who’d lined up outside a Corpus Christi firehouse he was visiting before he left that the recovery effort is ‘going well’ and his administration is ‘here to take care of you’
• President lauded state and federal officials for their response to Harvey this afternoon during his first of several stops in storm-stricken Texas, a firehouse in Corpus Christi
• ‘We want to do it better than ever before. We want to be looked at in five years, in ten years from now as, this is the way to do it,’ Trump told Texas Gov. Greg Abbott during a Corpus Christi briefing
• Trump said: ‘This was of epic proportion. Nobody’s ever seen anything like this’
• The president and first lady left the White House this morning just after 8:30 am for Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, he in a windbreaker sporting the presidential seal, khaki pants and brown boots
• She wore classic black stilettos from the White House to Air Force One during the trip to Texas’ flood zone
• By the time the president’s plane landed in Texas she was wearing white tennis shoes instead

The Trump administration’s response to this disaster has been so faultless that all fake news can do is whine about a pair of shoes.

Praying for the safety of those in Houston. So many have lost so very much.
 
Prayer is about as much as we can do when hearing about terrible disasters that we are fortunate enough not to be experiencing. Thank God the storm is easing.

I hadn’t heard about the looting, but apart from the sadness and devastation, I have heard some heart-warming details about the heroic actions of wonderful people involved in the rescue operation and voluntary assistance. Praise to them.
