Trump praises “Unification” and “ability” in Texas’ flood response
President Donald Trump joined the roundtable with his first responders following the devastating Texas flood.
Melania Trump wore a talented and charming bracelet from her family in the wake of the Texas flood.
On July 11, the First Lady shared how she and President Donald Trump were devastated across the Texas Hill Country and received accessories she wore on her left wrist during a roundtable meeting with local officials.
“We met with some amazing family. We prayed with them. We held our hands,” said the First Lady. “They shared their stories and I met a beautiful young woman who gave this special bracelet from camp in honor of all the little girls who lost their lives.
“I promise them. I pray for them, and I give them my strength and love,” she added.
In a statement shared with the media, Trump’s official office confirmed that he was given a charm bracelet by the Hotz tribe to honor the victims of the flood at Camp Mystic, a non-denominational all-girls summer camp on 700 acres.
The floods have claimed the lives of more than 120 people since heavy rain overwhelmed the Guadalupe River and drove homes and summer camps early on July 4th.
The President and First Lady arrived at Luckland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, and investigated the devastating flood damage that tore the Texas Hill country before travelling to Kerrville, Texas.
Earlier that day, Trump was photographed hugging her husband as he left the White House in a khaki jacket and a solid military green.
To arrive, Trump pushed in the waves that had been flowing freely before under his black baseball cap. Over the past few months, Trump has created a selective public appearance that reflects her private, understated nature.
But in a major moment, she appeared with the President at many engagements, including his second inauguration, the July 4th event, the White House Easter Egg Roll, the multi-million dollar festival of the administration celebrating the 250th anniversary of the US military, and a parade.
