Georgians get fast Hurricane aid from Biden and Harris … and it’s driving Trump crazy
The death toll surpassed 100 people, with some of the worst damage caused by inland flooding in North Carolina.
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.

Doesn't look like it's driving him crazy. He just lies about it, half of his supporters believe him, and the other half believe "in spirit". Seems pretty normal.
That seems like a good way to describe that level of devotion--believing him "in spirit".
While some are doing keg-stands with the Kool-Aid, others such as these believers 'in spirit' are just casually sipping a Kool-Aid cocktail to be social and/or fit in (or perhaps have succumbed to peer pressure, etc)
Scott Adams calls these sorts of lies "directionally true"
Meh, he's a piece of shit these days himself.
Well, yes, that was sort of the point. He's so die hard MAGA that even when faced with a hateful and demonstrably false statement, he still calls it "directionally" true, which is even worse than any of the corporate misspeak he ever made fun of in his days of popularity.
Ah I apologize, I read your comment as citing him for his witty euphemism, not as calling him out for his maga-ness.
