In Friday evening's online edition of the New York Post, it was reported that the President doubled and tripled down, telling a roundtable of federal and local officials that he will be “signing an executive order to begin the process of fundamentally reforming and overhauling FEMA, or maybe getting rid of FEMA. I think, frankly, that FEMA’s not good.”
He also said, “Earlier this month, the Biden administration kicked 2,000 displaced North Carolinians out of contemporary housing into freezing 20 degree weather,” Trump told assembled survivors in the severely damaged town of Swannanoa.
“I don’t know how they did that one because it was cold, even while your government provided shelter and housing for illegal aliens from all over the world. But under the Trump administration, the days of betrayal and neglect are over.”
He has appointed Michael Whatney, chairman of the Republican National Committee, and North Carolina resident, to lead federal recovery efforts in his home state from Helene, which killed more than 230 people and unleashed devastating flooding in late September.
He will also have Congress provide direct funding to the state and will have permitting requirements bypassed in order to “just get it done” the way it used to be. And he offered this in closing, “I guarantee that.”
Now that is how leaders lead… by saying it, doing it and taking ownership of it.
What anti-Trump group will dare take him to court over THAT?
