Trump Thrusts Hurricane Response Into Center of Campaign

“As many across the southeast struggle to dig out from Hurricane Helene and with Florida now bracing for Hurricane Milton, Donald Trump is making the storms a flashpoint in the presidential race,” Politico reports. “The former president has seized on the devastation left by Helene to launch a barrage of misinformation — including promoting false claims that FEMA spent disaster relief money on migrants that add to his already inflammatory rhetoric about immigration.” “Across visits to storm-torn states and through social media, he has cast Kamala Harris and the Biden administration as absent and incompetent in delivering aid even as members of his own party in affected areas say otherwise.” Wall Street Journal: FEMA scrambles to confront two storms — and misinformation. Associated Press: As FEMA prepares for Hurricane Milton, it battles rumors surrounding Helene recovery.
