The plan is set: President Trump will be visiting Texas on Tuesday as a show of support for the people of Houston who are battling historic flooding.
And now we know where First Lady Melania Trump will be: Right by her husband’s side as the people of Houston recover this from heartbreaking disaster.
Melania will reportedly travel with President Trump to Texas, but neither will visit the city of Houston. Out of respect for the ongoing rescue efforts, they will visit another part of the state.
.@FLOTUS will travel to #Texas w @POTUS this week.

Here’s more info from the Washington Examiner:
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said Monday the president will not be visiting Houston during his trip.
“The place he will be going to will not be Houston, so [he] will not be getting into harm’s way or interrupting the evacuations or emergency response in the Houston area,” Abbott told CBS. “He most likely will be going closer to where the hurricane hit land.”
This is good news. When a president visits somewhere, it can be a logistical nightmare. You have to account for security personnel, food, shelter, transportation, and a whole host of other factors.
By avoiding the Houston area, the Trumps will save the city a lot of grief. And right now, the city of Houston could use all the help it can get.
It’s also great to see our president taking such a keen interest in a part of our country roiled by a natural disaster. A year ago, when a hurricane struck Louisiana, killing a dozen people, President Obama refused to visit until it was too late.
I’m happy we have a president who puts the American people first.
Share if you’re glad to see President Trump visiting Texas after Hurricane Harvey!
HEY! Why isn’t Joel Osteen opening up his 16,000 seat megachurch in Houston to flood survivors? Osteen’s megachurch is not flooded nor are the roads around there flooded
Gallery Furniture just down the street from Joel Osteen’s megachurch in Houston has opened their warehouse for use as a shelter.
Interesting, isn’t it, when a Christian minister won’t be helpful.
MOOlania is going to show us some more of her naked coos.
Melania is a classy woman. She’ll be just where she should be..by President Trump’s side in Texas. Kudo’s to you Melania! Michelle Obummer’s got nothing on you! TRUMP 2020
Was hoping President Trump visited Houston and that some ANTIFA members showed up to protest. That way, I could grab one in a headlock under each arm and see who could hold their breath the longest. Being that I was a US Navy EOD diver and could hold my breath for 2.5 mins as well as fought underwater in combat, I’m quite sure that I would win the contest.handily.
Dream on Mark. I bet you couldn’t even take on a squirrel.
