DAVID MARCUS: It’s all aid, no wokeness in Trump’s West Virginia flood response

The devastating flooding successful West Virginia connected Feb. 15 that took 2 lives and caused upwards of $40 cardinal successful harm has been an aboriginal trial of the Trump administration’s catastrophe response, and contempt complaints that Trump is "gutting the government," truthful far, it has been a creaseless success.

In part, this occurrence is owing to the administration’s laser absorption connected providing aid, without the moralizing and societal justness sentiments that marred caller catastrophe alleviation efforts nether the ticker of Joe Biden.

TRUMP'S FEMA FACES RECKONING AS MORE STAFF FIRED IN ‘POLITICAL BIAS’ SCANDAL

Last week, Sen. Jim Justice, R-W.Va., and acting head of FEMA Cameron Hamilton visited the municipality of Welch, adjacent the borders with Kentucky and Tennessee, to instrumentality successful the devastation first-hand, and to amusement victims determination precisely however their national authorities is taking action.

"Figuring retired the adjacent steps and facilitating national assistance to get folks backmost to a amended spot is what I was sent to Washington to do," Justice told Fox News Digital. "At the extremity of the day, getting backmost to our location states and helping folks woody with existent issues impacting them is precisely wherefore we arsenic a enactment were capable to triumph by specified a wide margin."

West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice toured flood-stricken Welch, W.V., with apical FEMA officials. 

And what were immoderate of the forms of this national assistance that Justice and Hamilton were successful Welch, not conscionable touting, but making flood victims alert of? In conscionable implicit a month, respective national agencies person had a flood of their own, 1 of assistance to the community.

FEMA, among different things, has made assistance for impermanent lodging available, thing the Biden medication often struggled with. The Small Business Administration has declared a catastrophe successful respective counties and made loans available. The Department of Housing and Urban Development is making financing for repairs available, and the USDA is providing market assistance.

The existent communicative present is that determination is nary story. Everything is moving arsenic it should be, which is thing we were not accustomed to nether Joe Biden.

It is simply a whole-of-government attack that has near galore residents grateful, specified arsenic section simple schoolhouse main Sarah Diaz, who appreciated Justice’s sojourn to her school.

"It’s awesome to spot however overmuch helium supports our families with each this tremendous nonaccomplishment that we’ve gone done and that we’re bouncing backmost and filled with resilience," Diaz, who told WVVA News. "We’re excited."

The kids, it seems, were astir excited to spot the senator’s celebrated pooch, Babydog, who is his changeless and stalwart sidekick.

We each cognize that lack of grounds is not the aforesaid arsenic grounds of absence, but six weeks into this catastrophe we are not seeing the benignant of choler and vexation we saw successful the aftermath of past fall’s North Carolina and Florida floods.

The existent communicative present is that determination is nary story. Everything is moving arsenic it should be, which is thing we were not accustomed to nether Joe Biden.

It does and should marque america wonderment if FEMA, and who knows what different agencies, person been focused connected their halfway missions or, rather, successful pursuing utopian fantasies of equity and intersectionality.

After all, if FEMA was spending clip and vigor informing astir imaginary convulsive Trump supporters past their eyes were not afloat connected the existent ngo astatine hand.

The administration’s effect to the flooding successful West Virginia is grounds that the authorities tin trim needless abdominous from programs and not lone support beardown levels of service, but amended upon them. This, of course, won’t halt Democrats from saying the entity is falling.

As Justice enactment it, "Watching Democrats tally astir the state with their hairsbreadth connected fire, defending damn-near fraudulent levels of wasteful expenditures, and calling President Trump each derogatory governmental word imaginable is simply a wholly delusional elevation to dice connected and rather frankly a discarded of time. People crossed the state voted against this and the radical of West Virginia overwhelmingly voted against this."
