Residents of East fumed after President said Saturday that he'd been too busy to visit their town, which was impacted by a toxic train derailment seven months and one day ago. On February 3, a Norfolk Southern freight train slid off the tracks, igniting a huge fire that lasted several days.

Trying to show a contrast, former President flew to Ohio the day before Buttigieg's appearance.
