From the Austin American-Statesman on Tuesday, 29 August:

Update 2:48 p.m: Protesters and supporters of President Donald Trump have been spotted on Guadalupe Street and Koenig Lane awaiting the presidential motorcade.

“He’s coming down here for PR, taking advantage of the misfortune … to gain more media exposure,” South Austin resident Julie Campbell told American-Statesman reporter Taylor Goldenstein.

Update 3:18 p.m. President Donald Trump’s motorcade passed protesters on its way to the Texas Department of Public Safety’s Emergency Operations Center.

“Hey, hey. Ho, ho. Donald Trump has got to go,” demonstrators chanted.

As sordid as it is, Leftwing Democrats in Austin lined up to protest a President who was here to lend support to Texas during an historic disaster. The President was on his way to the Texas DPS emergency operations center in Austin and had protesters with nasty signs on his way in from the airport and on his way out.

Protest all you want but Democrats demonstrated more about themselves Tuesday than anything about Donald Trump.

While water was rising in Texas; while thousands of officials and volunteers were working to save human life, and; while a President was bringing assurance of help, Democrats couldn’t demonstrate a smidgen of manners or decorum and save the protests for another more appropriate time.

How reasonable people freely align with this lot remains hard to understand.
