FROM HURRICANE KATRINA TO HURRICANE MARIA TO THE GUADALUPE RIVER:  The efforts blame Trump and his policies for the flood disaster in Texas reminds me of the effort to blame Trump for Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico in 2017.

(My colleagues on the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights wanted to argue that Trump cared more about responding to Hurricane Harvey in Texas because it is white than about Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico because it is Hispanic.  I had to point out that there are many more Hispanics in Texas than in Puerto Rico.)
