Biden On Trump's Hurricane Helene Lies: 'I Don't Know Why He Does This'
HuffPost
"Let me get this straight: He's lying," the president said of Trump's claims that the president is not helping hurricane victims.
A visibly frustrated President Joe Biden rebuffed Donald Trump’s “irresponsible” claims that he hasn’t spoken with Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) about the devastation from Hurricane Helene.
“He is lying. Let me get this straight: He’s lying, and the governor told him he’s lying,” Biden said from the Oval Office.
His remarks come hours after Trump lobbed the easily disproved attack, saying of Kemp: “He’s been calling the president. He hasn’t been able to get him.”
Kemp has also contradicted Trump’s claim, saying he and Biden had spoken directly and that the president told him to call the White House for whatever he needed.
“I don’t know why he does this,” Biden added. “And the reason I get so angry about this ― I don’t care what he says about me, I care what he communicates to the people that are in need. He implies that we’re not doing everything possible. ... It’s simply not true, and it’s irresponsible.”
