8. We need to remember that the Governor asked them ALL to stay away for now

Fri Aug 19, 2016, 07:56 PM

Aug 2016

Governor of Louisiana asked Clinton, Trump, and President Obama to stay away for the time being. Two of those three complied.... tRump, not so much.

Breitbart 'News' has had a hit piece out blasting Clinton and Pres. Obama for not going, we need to hit hard against any of our right wing friends and relatives who repeat that bullshit. And now with tRump taking emergency responders away from their job so he can unload play-doh for thirty seconds..... we need to drive home the fact that tRump is a self centered idiot.
