*crickets*
As I type this, Trump has added 7 tweets since posting his check to DHS (about which more below). All relate to him and his political standing; none relate to the state of the country, especially in Nebraska or Missouri. The White House feed notes only that Trump celebrated Greek Independence Day at the White House (alone, apparently, or only long enough to miss Shep Smith on FoxNews), and that Ivanka and Melania are doing...something. Flood victims? Fuggedaboutit!
I haven't even seen a report of Trump saying anything about it. He is concerned about reports of his generosity, however; but the fault is in his press office, not in the press:
They used to bring the checks to the White House press briefings, but like so many other things, in the absence or regular briefings this has moved to Twitter. https://t.co/XE9ZJGf1Rg— Tamara Keith (@tamarakeithNPR) March 18, 2019
Maybe it's just as well he's ignoring the midwest as it drowns.....
