WASTING NO TIME: President Trump Will Visit Disaster-Hit North Carolina, California This Week: Report

posted by Hannity Staff - 1.21.25

On Tuesday, The White House announced President Donald Trump’s first trips would be to North Carolina and California — two states recently hit by natural disasters.

Trump is expected to visit both states this Friday.

From The New York Post:

Trump had hinted he would visit California to survey the aftermath of wildfires that ravaged the LA area, but had not previously said he would be going to North Carolina to view recovery efforts after Hurricane Helene.

Trump has spoken about both disasters as evidence of failures by Democratic leadership. He mentioned North Carolina, where 200,000 people were impacted by housing damages following the deadly September hurricane, in his inaugural address Monday.

“Our country can no longer deliver basic services in times of emergency, as recently shown by the wonderful people of North Carolina, who’ve been treated so badly, and other states that are still suffering from a hurricane that took place many months ago,” Trump said in his address.

He then noted the California fires, saying, “we are watching fires still tragically burn from weeks ago without even a token of defense.

“They’re raging through the houses and communities, even affecting some of the wealthiest and most powerful individuals in our country — some of whom are sitting here right now. They don’t have a home any longer. That’s interesting. But we can’t let this happen. Everyone is unable to do anything about it. That’s going to change.”

On Monday, Trump signed an executive order titled “Putting People Over Fish” which will increase water flow to southern California.
