Hurricane Helene response takes center stage at Trump rally | National
SUMMARY: At a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, former President Donald Trump criticized the federal government’s response to Hurricane Helene, which caused severe flooding across six states and resulted in over 220 deaths. He condemned the $750 aid offered to victims, arguing it is inadequate compared to the billions sent to foreign countries. Trump also targeted Vice President Kamala Harris for focusing on social events while victims awaited help. He has denounced FEMA for prioritizing funding for migrant resettlement over disaster relief, highlighting public officials’ dissatisfaction with the government’s initial assistance and encouraging criticisms of the administration’s priorities.
