Fact check: Six days of Trump lies about the Hurricane Helene response
Former President Donald Trump has delivered a barrage of lies and distortions about the federal response to Hurricane Helene.
While various misinformation about the response has spread widely without Trump’s involvement, the Republican presidential nominee has been one of the country’s leading deceivers on the subject. Over a span of six days, in public comments and social media posts, Trump has used his powerful megaphone to endorse or invent false or unsubstantiated claims.

Thursday: Trump falsely claims Harris spent ‘all her FEMA money’ on housing illegal migrants

Friday: Trump falsely claims $1 billion was ‘stolen’ from FEMA for migrants and has gone ‘missing’

To be fair to Cheeto,, he's got a history of believing that a minimal response to natural disasters is a good response.

Trump Defends Throwing Paper Towels to Hurricane Survivors in Puerto Rico
President Donald Trump defended throwing paper towels into a crowd of Puerto Ricans at a relief center in the hurricane-ravaged territory earlier this week and lauded federal relief efforts.
“They had these beautiful, soft towels. Very good towels,” Trump told Mike Huckabee during an interview Saturday with Christian network Trinity Broadcasting.

Cheeto would *never* criticize people who are less soulless than him, right?
