Washington (CNN)
President Donald Trump will travel Wednesday to areas affected by Hurricane Florence in North Carolina and South Carolina, sources tell CNN.

It is not yet clear where in North Carolina Trump is expected visit. Trump is expected to visit Myrtle Beach while in South Carolina. Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham and Tim Scott of South Carolina are expected to fly on Air Force One with Trump.

Natural disasters can provide presidents, along with governors and local officials, the opportunity to project apolitical muscle. Trump sought to harness that last year during visits to Texas, Florida and Puerto Rico after storms struck.

But extreme weather can also expose an administration's weaknesses, as Hurricane Katrina did for President George W. Bush in 2005. Trump's response to Puerto Rico also drew widespread criticism.

5. Bring the paper towels.

[classof56]

16. Beat me to it!

Oh, and lotsa bottles of water would be good. I'm guessing he'll talk about the Carolinas being an island that's tough to get to, dontcha know? Hope he talks about the death toll, which will doubtless go down incrementally in his presence.

Can't even describe how sick this ***hole makes me.

[George II]

6. It'll take a few days for his lackeys to go to Costco and pick up a few dozen cases of paper towels.

[Wolf Frankula]

7. He will tell everybody what a great job he's doing

and then go play golf.

...turds usually DO float.

[Gore1FL]

9. Trump, pig shit, coal waste, and misc sewage will make for quite a slurry of foul-smelling toxicity.

If only we could have added a little FL red tide...

[Dave Starsky]

10. Have we heard anything from Mr. Mushroom on this subject?

Or is he just using this as a photo op?

[turbinetree]

[Mr.Bill]

12. Kelly should advse him

to just fly over and get his picture taken looking out the window. That's how to get the best view.

[llmart]

14. Isn't that what W did after Katrina?

[Mr.Bill]

18. Exactly.

And he caught a load of criticism for it. Actually, I saw nothing wrong with getting a view of the flooding from the air, it just wasn't good optics.

[Mr.Bill]

13. I can see Melania now

in stiletto heeled rubber hip waders.

[llmart]

15. I'm sure she'll be wearing her "I really don't care, do you" jacket.

[DesertRat]

17. Disaster Barbie

[MarianJack]

19. Will he be bringing paper towels to toss?

RESIST!

[rurallib]

21. Must have a property down there he's concerned about

[jmowreader]

23. How did you guess?

https://www.trumpnationalcharlotte.com

[rurallib]

24. so that pretty well tells us where he is going

someplace and then Charlotte.

[PSPS]

22. With the usual bund rally?

[Totally Tunsie]

25. Oh goodie - now the really big wind blows into town.

[Freethinker65]

26. He is bringing Trump water and Trump paper towels and new hats that say TBTW

Tremendously Big Tremendously Wet

[Joseph Snyder]

27. Oh boy

Why.

[Doreen]

28. Once again.

He is going to get them to frantically cheer him and praise him for the fact he is going to fuck them over in any help they need or will need.

[rpannier]

29. How long can it take to land the plane toss a few rolls of paper towels at people

and leave?

[Spartacus101]

30. Oh, No, Not Again...

Think he'll revert to his base DNA and roll around in that toxic flood-gumbo of hog wallow, fertilizers, pesticides, blown sewer systems, snakes and alligators?

...oh well, one can dream...

Wonder how his 25% (and shrinking) "base" will welcome Caesar Disgustus?
