The congressman is correct. Where the hell is everyone!!!! Where is the help?!? Food, water basic necessities to live! The response is disgraceful! Locals are hard at it doing what they can.

"And to the survivors.." Who else would be listening? The non-survivors?

They need to get the people out of there. Move them somewhere else. That is not fixable.

The candidates should stop campaigning, pick an area like this, there are plenty of them, and hit the ground in these places. Show yourselves actually doing something constructive. Contacting their big campaign contributors to show them the money. They know ppl in every industry that could provide supplies and services.
I live in a bubble where I expect ppl to act right, get your stuff together, and help your fellow man. Do the right thing. The ppl with money let the ppl like us, middle class, pick up the slack. The man who has less gives more. Now ain’t that a kick in the ass‼️ meantime…..Be Well
