Trump on Harvey disaster relief: ‘We are one American family’

President Trump received an update Friday on relief efforts for Hurricane Harvey victims and said the outpouring of support was “an inspiration for the world.”

“We are one American family brought together in times of tragedy by the unbreakable bonds of love and loyalty that we have for one another,” Mr. Trump said. “And there is a great love and a great loyalty in this country and we’ve all seen it in the last four days.”

Mr. Trump said the rush of volunteer to Texas and Louisiana was inspirational.

“They have taught us all a lesson, a very very powerful lesson,” he said. “There was no outbreak of crime. There was an outbreak of compassion — real, beautiful, strong compassion.”

The president met in the Oval Office with representative from the Red Cross, Salvation Army and Southern Baptist Disaster Relief Organization, which are at the forefront of the relief effort for storm and flood victims in Texas and Louisiana.

The organizations partner with the federal government in helping at shelters, providing food, water, blankets and clothing to storm victims.

CNN, MSNBC, WashPo, etc are all holding emergency meetings right now trying to figure out how to spin Trump's visit to the shelter in Houston. Blacks are supposed to hate Trump because he's a racist according to the main stream media. Funny because it was mostly blacks at the shelter and they were lining up for selfies with the President.
It's killing the MSM that all the people are helping each other with no thought of race, ethnicity, religion, political affiliation, sexual orientation, etc.
