carpetbagging is showing up in town after a tragedy (like a war or a storm or an earthquake) and making a profit off the situation and/or running for local offices.

 

HRC and CF in Haiti could be considered modern day carpetbagging, as could all the Katrina profiteers.

 

origination of the word was post American Civil War / War Between The States circa 1860s when such a demographic arrived in the Occupied southern states with luggage made of carpet.
