President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump visited Florida and later Georgia on Oct. 15 to survey the destruction caused by Hurricane Michael, which left the seaside town of Mexico Beach as a pile of rubble.

Before the Trumps boarded a helicopter with Gov. Rick Scott at Eglin Air Force Base in Florida, the president spoke briefly to reporters, telling them that the government’s priority is providing food, power, and safety to victims.
