Donald Trump Faces Criticism for Misrepresenting Federal Response to Hurricane Helene in Georgia Visit
ai generated text
Donald Trump has repeatedly made false claims about the federal response to Hurricane Helene. He has accused President Joe Biden of being "sleeping" and not responding to Georgia Governor Brian Kemp. Trump has also falsely accused Vice President Kamala Harris of staging a photograph of herself on a call with officials regarding recovery efforts. The photograph in question shows Harris on Air Force Two with an iPhone and earpiece, but there is no evidence to support Trump's claim.
President Biden and I remain committed to ensuring that no community or state has to respond to this disaster alone.
I was just briefed by FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell on the latest developments about the ongoing impacts of Hurricane Helene. We also discussed our Administration's continued actions to support emergency response and recovery.
Federal personnel are on the ground to support families that have been impacted so that critical resources like food, water and generators are available. We have also approved emergency declarations for Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee – making resources and funding available to maximize our coordinated response efforts at the local, state and federal levels.
He's lying, and the governor told him he was lying.
I was on the phone for at least two hours yesterday and the day before as well. I commanded it. It's called a telephone.
He's lying and the governor told him he was lying. The governor told him he's lying. I've spoken to the governor, spent time with him, and he told him he's lying. I don't know why he does it … that's simply not true, and it's irresponsible.
He offered if there are other things we need just to call him directly, which I appreciate that.
The president just called me yesterday afternoon and he just said: 'Hey, what do you need?' … He offered that if there's other things we need, just to call him directly, which, I appreciate that.
Our hearts are with you and we are going to be with you as long as you need it.
Another FAKE and STAGED photo from someone who has no clue what she is doing.
We're here today to stand with complete solidarity with the people of Georgia and all those suffering in the terrible aftermath of Hurricane Helene.
So, if the governor would like to speak to the president again, of course, the president will take his call.
