Obama already had tee times at Martha’s Vineyard scheduled.
Via BPR:
Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke Jr. remarked Saturday that President Obama must believe there aren’t enough blacks affected by flood-ravaged Louisiana because the suffering hasn’t been sufficient for him to interrupt his Martha’s Vineyard vacation.[…]
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, rolled into Baton Rouge with an 18-wheeler full of much-needed supplies and handed them out to the flood-stricken residents, while Obama has continued to play golf, take in the nightlife and enjoy the fireworks on the Massachusetts island playground of the wealthy.
All of this has had both individuals and local media pleading for the president to show his face and at least act like he was taking charge.
