Donald Trump has spent days trying to capitalize politically on Hurricane Helene, which has wrought destruction across six states in the southeast and left at least 200 dead. Not only has he claimed Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have received "POOR GRADES" for the administration's handling of the storm, despite bipartisan praise for their response ("It has been superb," South Carolina's Republican governor, Henry McMaster, said this week). Trump has outright accused the administration of intentionally withholding aid to Republican areas impacted by the storm, even lying at a Thursday rally that Democrats "stole" relief money that should have gone to storm victims and "[gave] it to their illegal immigrants they want to have vote for them this season."
