'POOR GRADES!': Trump Unloads on Joe, Kamala for 'Incompetently Managed' Hurricane Response

By Eric Bolling Staff

ATLANTA, GEORGIA - SEPTEMBER 30: Republican presidential nominee, former U.S. President Donald Trump, listens to a question as he visits Chez What Furniture Store which was damaged during Hurricane Helene on September 30, 2024 in Valdosta, Georgia. Trump met with local officials, first responders, and residents who have been impacted by last week's hurricane which has left at least 90 people dead across Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. Millions are still without power, water, or reliable communications.

Are Joe and Kamala doing enough for Americans impacted by Hurricane Helene? Donald Trump doesn’t think so…

Former President Donald Trump unloaded on the Biden-Harris Administration Thursday morning for failing to take care of Americans hit by Hurricane Helene.

From Trump’s TRUTH Social post:

Kamala and Sleepy Joe are universally being given POOR GRADES for the way that they are handling the Hurricane, especially in North Carolina. It is going down as the WORST & MOST INCOMPETENTLY MANAGED “STORM,” AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL, EVER SEEN BEFORE – BUT THEIR MANAGEMENT OF THE BORDER IS WORSE! MAGA2024

While Trump was surveying the damage in Valdosta, Georgia earlier this week, Biden was on the beach in Delaware and Kamala was busy campaigning out west — she did make time for a staged photo, though.

Conservative commentators called out the failed administration on X.

Meanwhile, The Federalist reports that FEMA gave more than $1 billion dollars to illegal migrant services, drastically impacting its efforts to provide Americans with disaster relief.

According to a report from The Federalist, FEMA allocated nearly $1 billion dollars for services for illegal migrants while hurricane victims are being offered $750.

From The Federalist:

The Biden-Harris administration took more than a billion tax dollars that had been allocated to the agency responsible for American disaster relief and used it to offer services for illegal immigrants.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) allocated nearly $364 million in the fiscal year 2023 and $650 million for the 2024 fiscal year to the “Shelter and Services Program” “to provide humanitarian services to noncitizen migrants following their release from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS),” according to the government’s website.

Now, residents across the southeastern United States are suffering from the administration’s misplaced priorities, which place “equity” and “climate resilience” ahead of emergency preparedness. While FEMA routinely prepares for colossal rescue operations with resources lined up in the days ahead of major storms, such pre-staged support was clearly not available to residents in the Appalachian towns that were washed away by overwhelming rains from Hurricane Helene. Hundreds remain missing as the storm becomes the Biden administration’s “Katrina moment.”

Donald Trump Jr. blasted the Biden-Harris White House for announcing $750 for Hurricane Helene victims, calling out the billions of American dollars that went to assist with the war in Ukraine.

“$750 for Americans in desperate need many of whom lost everything including family. $250 BILLION spent in Ukraine with a population of +\- 38 million equals a bit more than $6500 per person in F$&?ing UKRAINE!!! For what? Enough of this madness!”
