President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump on Monday toured communities in the Florida Panhandle that were ravaged by Hurricane Michael last week. The Trumps talked with hurricane survivors and surveyed endless mounds of debris. Trump also surveyed storm damage in Georgia, where the focus was on farmers whose crops were wiped out by the hurricane.
The death toll stands at 17, with thousands of buildings gutted and tens of thousands of homes and businesses without electricity. Trump paused his election-season campaign blitz for the visit, largely — but not completely — putting politics on the backburner for the day.
Below is a roundup of photo highlights from the president’s tour.
