Trump visits hurricane, wildfire disaster zones

President Donald Trump is hitting the road for the first time since his second inauguration, visiting hurricane victims in North Carolina and then heading west to California to tour the devastation left behind by wildfires around Los Angeles. Trump criticized the federal response – and then-President Biden – after both disasters, drawing rebukes from Democrats who claimed he was unnecessarily politicizing the victims’ suffering. The president also suggested he'd be open to reducing FEMA's role or eliminating it entirely.
