Former President and 2024 candidate Donald Trump pops into a McDonald’s in East Palestine, Ohio after meeting with local authorities; Trump was swarmed by locals wanting to get a pic of the former POTUS.
Watch the video above.
Trump delivered a speech to the Ohio community earlier in the day.
“This is really America right here; we’re standing in America,” Trump said at a news conference, which aired live on Newsmax. “Unfortunately, as you know, in too many cases, your goodness and perseverance were met with indifference — and betrayal in some cases.
“Biden and FEMA said they would not send federal aid to East Palestine under any circumstance. They are not going to send aid. I thought that was a strange statement because I’ve been working with FEMA for a long time — four years — and they were great with us with the tornadoes or hurricanes and things like this.
“And it was a strange statement to come out and they were doing nothing for you. They were intending to do absolutely nothing for you.”
Trump also revealed a conversation he had with Ohio Senator J.D. Vance.
“J.D. and I spoke, and they said they’re not coming; they’re not going to come,” Trump continued. “And I said that’s very strange. FEMA said, specifically, this doesn’t meet the criteria. And that’s horrible. And somebody has to do something for those people.”
