As President Trump arrived in Texas on Tuesday to witness the damage from Tropical Storm Harvey, he was greeted in Corpus Christi by a microcosm of a divided nation: a mix of well-wishers and protesters, both thrilled and furious he was here. Compared to other areas along the Gulf Coast, Corpus Christi survived with minimal damage. With the president in town, Corpus Christi police officers and Nueces County sheriff’s deputies were parked on seemingly every overpass for miles. The timing infuriated Falcon, who noted that Corpus Christi has a large Latino population. Another woman drove by, mouthing, “Stupid, stupid, stupid.” Others just shook their heads and waved their flags.
