LIVE: Donald Trump surprise visit to North Carolina after Storm Helene

Donald Trump surveys damage in Asheville, North Carolina caused by Hurricane Helene.

Trump has gone back to the policy focus that launched him into the presidency in 2016 by placing immigration at the heart of his 2024 campaign, a strategy he hopes will help him secure a lead over Democratic rival Kamala Harris in the run-up to next month’s election.

He is also vowing to recreate the low-inflation economy of his first term to win over voters angry at the steep rises in prices and interest rates during Joe Biden’s four years in the White House.

Unlike his failed 2020 re-election campaign, when he did not even have a manifesto, Trump, 77, has made numerous pledges and set out plans that give American voters a real taste of his ambitions for a second term as US president.

My son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren are in Western North Carolina. They did take a direct hit. I finally got in touch with them. My son works in Ashville. Thank God, that my family survived.

Words cannot describe how badly our country needs this man back in office. The prayer was beautiful and I could tell he was touched. I hope we can all share this video so everyone can see how a true patriot, friend, leader, is supposed to act. I don’t believe he does this for media, or for votes. I whole heartedly believe that he TRULY cares and simply loves America. God bless all who have experienced loss. Your in my prayers. May your tomorrow be brighter. Thank you Mr President. Voted for you in Ohio last week!!!!

[NoRageGuy]

the true upsetting thing about this is the opposing administration will place more effort AND MONEY into twisting a negative spin on this visit than they will on recovery for the victims of the storm.
