Trump sounds off after Biden finally takes action in Ohio after he announced visit!
EAST PALESTINE, Ohio (PNN) - February 17, 2023 - On Friday, President Donald J. Trump announced he would be visiting East Palestine after Biden had largely ignored the disaster and refused to send assistance. Ironically, just hours after Trump announced his planned visit, Biden changed course and decided to send a FEMA assistance team to the area.
Many have opined that Biden only did this because he didn’t want to be upstaged by Trump.
Trump also sounded off on the sudden change of heart, saying, “We got them to move” in a new Truth Social post.
“Biden and FEMA said they would not be sending federal aid to East Palestine. As soon as I announced that I’m going, he announced a team will go. Hopefully he will also be there. This is good news because we got them to move. The people of East Palestine need help. I’ll see you on Wednesday,” the president said.
In a matter of days, FEMA went from saying that Ohio “did not qualify” for assistance to urgently sending a team to the area. This large pivot raises eyebrows, to say the least.
The illegitimate Joe Biden regime came out with this disingenuous press release after Trump announced his visit.
“The (illegitimate) Biden-Harris (regime) has mobilized a robust, multi-agency effort to support the people of East Palestine, Ohio. As (pretender) Biden told Ohio Governor Mike DeWine and Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro soon after the derailment, the federal government stands ready to provide any additional federal assistance the states may need.”
It’s good to see the White House doing the right thing, even if it is solely for political reasons.
However, the people of East Palestine will always know who was truly there for them in their time of need.
