  1. How much has “brilliant shrewd billionaire” Trump contributed out of his personal fortune? He loves real Americans. This is a perfect opportunity for him to show it, to put his money where his mouth is! I’ll wait…

  2. Time to bail out. The Govt should be providing buses and free rides to other areas not prone to such random devastation. They can transport all these illegals why not Americans?

  3. My niece's husband and crew were sent to Atlanta to help get power back on. It is possible they will be drafted to help in other areas, even across state lines. I've never seen such widespread destruction.

  4. All the News stations need to be focusing on this Situation in the USA . Bit Rediculous when you think about it , they are more concerned with whats going on across the pond in the middle east !!
    ☹️☹️

  5. This is really heartbreaking. I'm sorry this happened to the people.
    Please remember that project 2025 will get rid and dismantle the national weather service as well as the NOAA. That means that there will be no warning whatsoever.

  6. If you want to help please reach out to some of the local churches in the area. Same with the local schools to donate directly through them.
    Money won’t trickle down through management pockets like it does through Red Cross, which is an ok option.
    Local churches are already feeding hot meals, helping with essential needs everyday, all day.
    Help them help each other. ❤

  7. Bring in lifestraws & water filteration & tablets, etc type of products.
    It’ll be a while before everything is everyday-functional for clean drinking water in some of the very rural area & burning fuel/wood, etc to heat water sources to boil long enough to make it drink safe is not reasonable, but drinkable water is ESSENTIAL.
    Even bringing clean water in single use bottles, or 5 gal jugs into the rural areas as debris is being cleared & infrastructure comes back is long term issues.
    The mountain streams are great water sources, but need to be processed for drinking. Lifestraws & tablets can be very helpful & free up weight for pack mules & delivery drops that can be used for food, etc until roads & gas stations are available.

  8. 🙏♥️ I’m so tired of people who know nothing about the East Coast, mountains, and hurricanes commenting that they should have left. In addition to your lack of knowledge, please add no empathy and self righteous to your list of issues.

  9. We still have no power thanks Roy for sending the power people to Florida out the gate and drsantes kept them til the minute their contract was up on Tues before he would let them return to Nc while people need power for med reasons and are dying they are playing politics
