Texas Gov. Greg Abbott again praised President Donald Trump’s response to Hurricane Harvey and the floods it spawned.
“Governor, tell us about the President’s visit to the state. Tell us what he accomplished,” a CNN reporter asked him.
“Well, it was very important for the President to show up, to show how much he cared about the state of Texas, about our citizens, and about his commitment to helping Texas get through this emergency process and then rebuild,” said Abbott.
“In addition to the President we had cabinet members such as the Secretary of Homeland Security, Secretary Tom Price of Health and Human Services, who is playing such a key role about what’s going on in Houston right now … We had the FEMA administrator here.”
“As far as the President himself is concerned, I got to visit with him at length and see both his compassion and his commitment to helping Texas get through this process,” Abbott, a Republican, added.
