Kamala and Joe are pretty much ignoring the disaster in Asheville, NC

What the democRATs do when you live in a RED part of the country. The same thing happened with the East Palestine, Ohio, train derailment.

[avital2]

No Carollna can be Red in some respects,but i believe Asheville is a pretty liberal community.

[srmanuel]

Biden is so mentally gone he probably doesn’t know about the damage caused by the hurricane and Kamala can’t be bothered with the nasty details of governing when she’s running for president

[Blueflag]

Yeah Asheville itself is a deep blue, defund the police bastion. But it’s quite red outside it.

Asheville is their territory if they don’t get a big turnout from there they could possibly lose NC, which is a must, although they could lose NC if they win the rust belt. Maybe we look back on this like Hillary’s mistake of not going to WI? The dems aren’t mistake free.

[silent_jonny]

I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that the land underwater is in Republican territory.

Asheville?? Since when?

No Carollna can be Red in some respects,but i believe Asheville is a pretty liberal community.

I thought so too. Maybe it is more "white-liberal". These days, if you ain't BIPOC, you ain't shiite.

I’m surprised that Kamunist is ignoring her fellow travelers in the commune known as Asheville. Maybe their snubbing will help the governor’s race.

The DNC would say to those loyal Democrats living in Asheville, NC:

"You will be sacrificed for the Greater Good. And you will accept and like it. The Party is what is important."

[Carl Vehse]

Is President... what’s-his-name... doing anything to help Asheville, NC recovery?

[NCLaw441]

If Asheville folks can’t vote due to the devastation, the Dems will have lost a LOT of votes.

[rlmorel]

For the Dems, they don’t care. To them, individuals are expendable.

They hold the purse strings, and North Carolina without Asheville is still going to Trump, so they must suffer for the Greater Good.

In a nutshell, this is Leftism. So you folks in Asheville-Blue and Red-you are Sacrificial Lambs on the Altar of Leftism.

[PghBaldy]

I thought North Carolina is a “Swing State?” It would behoove Kamala to express more care & support, unless her campaign has given up on NC...

[rlmorel]

As an aside-they can still vote Democrat if they die. So there is that.

[DeplorablePaul]

Yes. Asheville is east Portland. The town has implemented all the BLM agenda and was filled with hippies and eco zealots. Brewing beer and smoking pig does not make them capitalists.

[DeplorablePaul]

I vacation in that area of NC in the summer riding my bike back into the blue ridge. Geographically it is like a funnel down to Asheville. I can easily see the flood coming down the gorges.

Floods don’t advance the climate change agenda as much as fire. When this area burned down a few years ago, it got a lot of attention.

[silent_jonny]

Chimney Rock, NC (20 miles SE of Asheville) is just gone.

Reminds me of the destruction after MT. St Helens exploded.

Trump will go there as soon as it’s safe. He will pay out of his own pocket to help victims and get his rich friends to chip in.
