Kamala and Joe are pretty much ignoring the disaster in Asheville, NC
American Thinker ^ | 29 Sep, 2024 | Andrea Widburg

Ashville, North Carolina, was exceptionally battered by Hurricane Helene. Joe Biden has authorized FEMA funds for the flood-stricken regions that the hurricane hit, and he and Kamala both issued generic “we’re so sad” statements. But that’s it. Indeed, the whole Democrat establishment is missing. I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that the land underwater is in Republican territory. And what does it say to America that we have an administration that cares for only those Americans who give it their votes?

First, in case you missed it, here’s some footage showing the devastation just in Asheville, along with queries about Kamala’s absence: [videos at link]

SNIP

What’s happened isn’t merely inconvenient. Over sixty people have died in the hurricane’s path. Hundreds more are missing. However, the MSM are disinterested. As of this writing, this is the full ABC News homepage coverage (marked in red):

What is truly sickening is that CT just received fed disaster relief for some flooding this summer. Not even a fraction of the damage NC experienced. Lefties have each others back.

>>Asheville is their territory if they don’t get a big turnout from there they could possibly lose NC

They’ll probably leverage this to ignore all the election integrity measures so they can manufacture votes at will. Like they did with the plandemic. Mail-in ballots from out of state, no ID checks, no signature requirements, nor verification. Mail-in ballots to all registered voters even if they don’t request them, unmonitored drop boxes.... the list goes on.

The Rats will find a way to get a huge “turnout” from Asheville...

Willie Brown’s squeeze hauled ass to the border for a photo op with the Border Boyz. I was expecting her to go the N.C. shore and walk the beach hand in hand with fat ass Chris Christie.

Just wait until the congressional Rwpublican “leadership” speaks out on this - Mitch McConnell, Thune, Lindsay Graham - they would be screaming if an additional dime didn’t go immediately to Ukraine and ten to one, with the exception of Hawley, Scott, Cruz and a few others in the Senate and MTG and the Freedom Caucus in the House, they will put church mice to shame.

They want to buy votes from illegals, instead of helping Patriots of this country.

The least they could do is declare this as a disaster and get FEMA to help

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.

Yep ... if the hurricane had hit New Orleans or Houston, there'd be plenty of money.

The wiki for 2020 election shows that area as light blue.

Asheville pop 94K.

The dark blue locales are, of course, Raleigh and Charlotte.
