Louisiana's capital city of Baton Rouge has been besieged by flooding, and tens of thousands of residents have been displaced. It's the worst national disaster since Hurricane Sandy — and yet President Obama hasn't traveled to the area, nor have the party nominees vying to replace him made any grand overtures to do so. That is, until now.

Donald Trump and his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, made a surprise visit to Baton Rouge on Friday morning, a fact that fills some Trump supporters with finger-pointing glee:

It is good Trump and Pence are going to Louisiana to help fellow Americans who are in pain.Sad that Obama cant leave vacation for one day. — Newt Gingrich (@newtgingrich) August 19, 2016

Though the Trump campaign has said little about the details of his visit, the state's Democratic governor, John Bel Edwards, said he hoped the Republican presidential nominee would volunteer his time to help the victims. But considering that just touching down in Baton Rouge and exiting the airplane requires for Trump two heavily armed military men — reportedly USS counter assault team agents who protect the president and presidential nominees — perhaps wading through the Louisiana waters will not be on Trump's agenda.
