Georgia’s Republican governor praised Democratic President Joe Biden for reaching out to him in the wake of Hurricane Helene’s deadly devastation as the state and surrounding areas scramble to recover from the disaster.
Former President Donald Trump told a different story when he landed there to survey the damage.
“The governor’s doing a very good job. He’s having a hard time getting the president on the phone,” Trump told reporters. “The federal government is not being responsive.”
It wasn’t true.
Here’s what Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp had to say about Biden and the feds:
“The president just called me yesterday afternoon. I missed him and called him right back and he just said, ‘Hey, what do you need?’ And I told him, ‘We got what we need. We’ll work through the federal process. He offered that if there’s other things we need just to call him directly, which I appreciate that,” Kemp said.
“We’ve had FEMA embedded with us since a day or two before the storm hit in our state operating center in Atlanta. We’ve got a great relationship with them,” he said.

I do realize this is a rather dreary conversation and I’d rather it be concluded, so if there is nothing more…
You know you could have just left when you originally abandoned the point. But I can see you have strong feelings on the matter, if nothing else from your continuing response.
I’ve abandoned nothing except boredom. Surely, you can bother someone else.
Life advice: when I find something boring I stop doing it and find something else to do. I don’t continue to do it while announcing to the world how bored I am of it.
That’s great, how nice for you.
Thanks, I appreciate it. You might even be able to learn from the nice things I do for myself.
I doubt it. I wouldn’t take advice from others of your ilk. I find them too pretentious and unschooled.
There’s little more pretentious than believing that simply because a person doesn’t have some arbitrary amount of training, that they don’t possess useful knowledge that you can learn from them.
As you continually make more and more clear, your strong suit seems to be projection.
You seem to confuse me with someone who cares what you think. I can assure you, I’ve joined the what must be the large group of people that really don’t
