President Trump is going to take his first trip to North Carolina, who was devastated by the storm after returning to the White House on Friday, and California, the most deadly and destructive fire in the history of California.
This trip was done with the president failed to solve the issue of additional disaster support for California.
President Trump will visit Ashville, North Carolina, who suffered tremendous floods last fall due to hurricane Helen. President Trump later visited the Los Angeles area, killing more than 24 people, destroying the entire neighborhood, and observing the damage caused by desperate evacuation forest fires.
But President Trump had a very different tone of the possibility of additional federal support for each state. Trump expressed his support for North Carolina, but also criticized the Democratic Party leaders in California on disaster response and threatened to stop federal support if they did not change the relevant environmental policies in California.
The president generally visited the natural disaster recovery area to show personal support and guarantees federal support for emergency medical workers and local leaders. But President Trump often used natural disasters as a means of bursting political dissatisfaction, threatened to withheld the political opponents, false statements about the Democratic disaster response, and promised to support political allies.
During his first term of Trump, he told the aides that he wanted to prevent money from being delivered to Puerto Rico after Hurricane Mary, claiming that the island’s leadership was corrupt. Trump said that after the California Forest Fire in 2018, the Social Media ordered the Federal Disaster Administration that “don’t send money anymore” unless the state’s approach to forest management is changed.
Prior to the Friday trip, President Trump has already shown different approaches to the Republican North Carolina and California.
President Trump said in an interview with Fox News, which aired on Wednesday, “We will first come to North Carolina. Because they were treated very bad by the Democrats.” “We will correct the problem because they are still suffering from a few months ago as a hurricane.”
Trump has been criticizing the Biden administration’s response to Hurricane Helen since the beginning of the hurricane response, but the locals, state and federal authorities in the disaster area have exposed it.
False statements included the claim that FEMA spent a lot of money on the purchase of housing for immigrants and would only pay $ 750 to the victims of storms. Due to a series of false claims, Biden accused President Trump for spreading “blatant lies.”
One FEMA employee was fired in the aftermath of the hurricane Milton in the aftermath of the Florida relief crew to pass through a house with a sign that supported President Trump.
In the same interview with Fox News, President Trump threatened to discontinue disaster support for wildfires unless he prevented water from flowing into the southern California by criticizing the Governor of Democratic Governor in California, California, California, Gavin. .
“I don’t think I should give anything to California until California flows,” he added.
State and fire experts say this policy has nothing to do with the fire in the Los Angeles region.
At a press conference on Thursday, New Som expressed his conviction that the Trump administration would continue to repay disaster -related funds to California. He added that he would not be invited to accompany Trump while traveling to the Los Angeles area, but he plans to go to the airport to welcome Trump.
But despite the strong criticism of the California leaders, President Trump was the last time he sweared Schiff as “garbage,” and the Last Last California Democratic Party Senator Adam B. Schiff participated in his state visit to his state. It seemed to be invited at the moment. Inauguration day.
Senator, a spokesman for Prime Minister Sheep, who has long maintained a tender relationship with President Trump, said the Senator would not be able to travel because he was expected to vote for the Senate on Thursday.
The spokesman said in a statement, “Senator Cyp is very grateful for the president’s visit and accompanying invitation to see the tragedy of forest fires.” And said. The statement added that the Senate will cooperate with President Trump and other officials to “receive California’s needs and support”.
