President Trump traveled to Louisiana today to speak with a group of very enthusiastic workers at Cameron LNG.
He thrilled the workers with this promise:
“President trump promises that if he wins the 2020 election, he will construct a new I-10 bridge.”
We think the workers will be building that bridge after President Trump wins reelection in 2020.

As Trump’s plane landed, Louisiana’s Lieutenant Governor Bill Nungesser and others met him on the tarmac, while Trump supporters eagerly waited to catch a glimpse of the popular president.

President Trump’s number one fan, however, appeared to be Louisiana’s Lt. Governor. NYT’s reporter Doug Mills tweeted a hilarious image of Louisiana’s Lt. Governor Bill Nungesser, pulling up his pant leg to reveal his “Trump socks,” with Trump’s signature shock of yellow hair appearing on the woven image of Trump.

Unfortunately, on the way to his event, four police officers who were riding in President Trump’s motorcade on motorcycles crashed and were taken to the local hospital to be treated. No major injuries were reported.
