Rep. Eric Swalwell blasts Donald Trump for holding a rally in Pennsylvania while Hurricane Michael wreaked havoc in parts of Florida and Georgia. Trump did promise sand for the beaches in Erie, Penn. Go figure.
Swalwell tweeted: “Foolishly, I give Trump benefit of the doubt, assuming he’s talking about the #HurricaneMichael victims who need help. NOPE NOPE NOPE. He’s justifying why he went to a rally rather than help victims.”
“We had thousands of people lined up” @realDonaldTrump says on @foxandfriends. Foolishly, I give Trump benefit of the doubt, assuming he’s talking about the #HurricaneMichael victims who need help. NOPE NOPE NOPE. He’s justifying why he went to a rally rather than help victims.

Twitter ripped Trump for his hypocrisy. He attacked former President Barack Obama in 2012 for campaigning with Jay-Z and Bruce Springsteen in the aftermath of Super Storm Sandy.
Yesterday Obama campaigned with JayZ & Springsteen while Hurricane Sandy victims across NY & NJ are still decimated by Sandy. Wrong!
