[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Except PP Trump would eliminate FEMA and many of those experienced professionals. [/quote] And all the Florida Republicans voted against disaster aid right before the state was hit by two catastrophic hurricanes[/quote] The lack of funding for FEMA and the vilification of feds is having a predictable effect. FEMA doesn’t have enough staff available to send to Florida. They are stretched too thin and scrabbling to find people. Since DeSantis doesn’t value federal disaster assistance, it will be an opportunity for him to show the rest of us the way. But of course this is what Florida voted for: no taxes or regulations. Everyone takes care of themselves. NYT: But FEMA is stretched not just by the brutal aftermath of Hurricane Helene, which killed more than 200 people and destroyed sections of western North Carolina. Its staff is also responding to flooding and landslides in Vermont, tornadoes in Kansas, the aftermath of Tropical Storm Debby in New York and Georgia and the Watch Fire in Arizona.[/quote]
