He has yet to publicly acknowledge the Florence-related deaths.

And not a peep on Twitter today. I can only imagine what is going on behind the scenes... he is probably ranting and stewing something fierce!
Republican Senate candidate John James knows what women want in politics: Men
One reason James is doing so poorly is that he is completely out of touch with over half the electorate: women.
At a recent men-only event in Bath, Michigan in May, James explained to the men there what women want: Men.
I’m sure all you little ladies are nodding your heads thinking, “This man has finally explained to me what I want.”
Clearly, that’s not actually the case given James’ abysmal poll numbers. But he fits right in with the Daddy Savior style of politics personified most blatantly by Donald Trump, a “man” John James says he stands behind “2000 percent”.
Yeah, good luck with that, Mr. James. See you on November 6th when a woman hands you your ass.

Texas board votes to eliminate Hillary Clinton, Helen Keller from history curriculum
Source: Dallas News/The Dallas Morning News
AUSTIN — History curriculum in Texas remembers the Alamo, but could soon forget Hillary Clinton and Helen Keller.
As part of an effort to "streamline" the social studies curriculum in Texas, the State Board of Education voted on Friday to change what students in every grade are required to learn in the classroom. They voted to remove several historical figures, including Hillary Clinton and Helen Keller.
The board also voted to add back into the curriculum a reference to the "heroism" of the defenders of the Alamo, which had been recommended for elimination, as well as Moses' influence on the writing of the founding documents, multiple references to "Judeo-Christian" values and a requirement that students explain how the "Arab rejection of the State of Israel has led to ongoing conflict" in the Middle East.
The vote Friday was preliminary. The board, which is elected to represent geographic areas, will take a final vote on these curriculum changes in November and can make further amendments before then.
