As we told you earlier, Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards thanked Donald Trump for his visit to flood-ravage Baton Rouge last week, saying the GOP nominee “helped shine a spotlight” on the situation.
But Donald Trump’s good deed didn’t go unpublished as libs took to Twitter after the visit to mock Trump and running mate Gov. Mike Pence for handing out Play-Doh.
One, even if Donald Trump did only hand out Play-Doh, don’t kids in a flood zone who’ve lost everything deserve a toy while they’re stuck in a shelter? But two, they’re wrong. Snopes fact-checked the visit and found that the 18-wheeler full of supplies donated by Trump was filled with other items such as “diapers, baby formula, various toys, cleaning supplies and socks.”
Anyway, here’s a quick list of 12 actors, journalists and other liberals who felt Trump’s generosity was mock-worthy.
1. Actor Samuel L. Jackson:

The seriousness with which Trump and Pence are handing out this Play-Doh is a nice metaphor for the campaign. https://t.co/d8PLVNlVdK

10. Journalist Kurt Eichenwald:
@Adriennebertuc1 @JCNDC Im curious. How do u know that Trump brought the supplies? (And if he did, what was needed was water, not play-doh.)

Did Trump just have a ton of Play Doh that he needed to offload? Did it fall off the back of a truck? https://t.co/hAdr3khJue

12. Author Dr. Max Wachtel:
Not certain, but it really looks like Donald Trump is handing out Play Doh in LA. Someone please tell me I'm wrong. https://t.co/N8bDToLMLt
