President Donald Trump said Friday that he might sign an executive order to “get rid” of FEMA and hand over the responsibility of responding to natural disasters to the states.
Trump made the comments during a visit to Asheville, North Carolina, where he met with victims of Hurricane Helene and teased an executive order to completely overhaul FEMA. Western North Carolina was devastated last year when Hurricane Helene brought record flooding to the area, destroying homes and killing more than 100 people.
