Donald Trump was more presidential than President Barack Obama in going to the flooded areas in Louisiana Friday, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani said.
"Today, Donald Trump acted more Presidential than the President himself, by immediately going to Louisiana while President Obama chose to continue playing golf and Hillary Clinton phoned in her views," Giuliani said in a statement, according to The Hill.
Giuliani has been stumping for Trump on the campaign trail and was present at a round table discussion earlier this week that centered on law enforcement and national security. He also gave a rousing speech at the Republican National Convention last month.
Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards called Trump's visit a "photo-op."
Giuliani shot back at the governor, saying, "The Democrat Governor's criticism of Mr. Trump's visit to Louisiana is an outrage, and completely inconsistent with their criticism of President Bush's decision to not go to New Orleans immediately after Hurricane Katrina."
