It’s been more than five months since Hurricane Helene devastated several states across the Southeast. In North Carolina, where Helene killed more than 100 people and caused nearly $60 billion in damage, many of the hardest-hit residents have grown increasingly frustrated with FEMA, a federal agency that’s also been in the crosshairs of President Trump.
Edit: Based on a lot of the repetitive comments I’m seeing, I would like to clarify two things. One, people don’t seem to realize that many of the places hardest hit by Helene, like Asheville and the immediate area, are bastions of liberalism who voted for Harris by a 2 to 1 margin. Two, it is horrifying to jeer for someone losing their home regardless of who they or their neighbors voted for.
They are getting what they voted for. It’s about time the red states face consequences for their actions
they will be waiting forever.
Weren’t they chasing FEMA off with guns and stuff? And after that, didn’t they vote to gut FEMA? What did they think was going to happen?
Hold up, that was one guy who threatened FEMA, and the majority of NC did not vote for Trump. It’s despicable to imply we deserve this.
The majority of the voters voted that way, alas you’re seiibg the result play out.
Stay sane !
No they didn’t, he just got the most votes of any candidate. Some votes that weren’t for Trump weren’t for Harris either. The majority of NC voters did not vote for him. On top of that, look at the demographics of the hardest hit areas. Much of it is left leaning.
We’re going to see the results play out regardless, but it’s pretty low to act like we deserve it.
Seems like he got the majority though.
Your gonna have to keep waiting. Trump don’t give a fuck.
he will throw a couple roll of towel paper to soak up some of the water from the flooding, and hand out trump water bottles.
NC voted for…checks notes…trump
Yeah, that’s not happening. Those people might not even be employed anymore.
Looks like they got what they voted for?
Not all of them no, Asheville is very blue
lol you are not going to get it now. FEMA will no longer exist. You got what you voted for.
Thots and prayers. Maybe if they stop making eggs for breakfast they could afford to fix their homes.
Did Donald Trump voters expect a handout from the federal government? Man, us Americans have to be one of the dumbest groups of people on the planet. So much stupid. I hate it here.
Nope lol no handouts for you. You’re murican and conservative so get your asses additional jobs. Get your elderly out there in the fields. 5¢ bjs on your corners. You voted for this, so take it up the ass like you chose.
