In the heated run-up to the U.S. presidential election, Republican candidate Donald Trump took to North Carolina, where he addressed a pre-election rally.

Speaking to a crowd in Asheville, a city recently ravaged by historic flooding due to Hurricane Helene, Trump criticized the federal government’s response to the disaster. “In the wake of this horrible storm, many Americans in this region felt helpless and abandoned and left behind by their government,” Trump declared, pointing fingers at FEMA’s handling of relief efforts. He pledged to support the storm-damaged region and promised that “a new crew would help you in a proper manner.”

North Carolina remains a critical battleground, and Trump’s message appears aimed at swaying voters who might be dissatisfied with the current administration’s emergency response. The state, which Trump narrowly won in 2020, could once again play a pivotal role in the upcoming election.

As the election approaches, both campaigns are ramping up their efforts in key swing states.
