White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on Monday drew a hard line against quickly blaming the government in the midst of a tragedy – in this case, the deadly floods in Texas.

Just like during his first stint in the White House, President Donald Trump's inaugural visit to Texas in his second term will be amid human tragedy.

President Donald Trump said he would travel to Texas on Friday, a trip that will allow him to survey first-hand the devastation from extreme floods that have left at least 100 people dead and scores still missing.
