Is this the best photo they could find for Trump “witnessing first hand” the devastation of Hurricane Harvey?
Donald Trump’s official Instagram account recently posted this, an image of the President “witnessing first hand the horror & devastation caused by Hurricane Harvey”.
Needless to say, people weren’t impressed…
Others provided their own events that they “witnessed first hand”.

And yes, while Trump did visit Texas he apparently didn’t meet a single flood victim, and instead went on about the crowd size.
