Fox News
President Donald Trump said that his administration will step in and assist North Carolina as it recovers from Hurricane Helene months after the storm.
Trump also promised his administration would step in and assist North Carolina to fix the damage quickly, vowing to "do a good job" for the state. Diana Stancy is a politics reporter with Fox News Digital covering the White House.
"We're going to fix it, and we're going to fix it as fast as you can," Trump said. "It's a massive amount of damage. FEMA has really let us down. Let the country down. And I don't know if that's Biden's fault or whose fault it is, but we're going to take over. We're going to do a good job."
Trump also said he would like to see the states assume more responsibility when disaster strikes, arguing those familiar with the state are better equipped to provide disaster response and relief.
