Trump has only been in office 4 days

FEMA are supposed to be all hands on deck asap Sadly, this did not happen. People needed physical assistance before the money.

My understanding is that FEMA is a National co-ordinating and training organsisation which provides grants and support following disasters in US states but it is the States themselves which provide the main resources to deal with the disasters as they occur supplemented by FEMA emplyees from out of state I'm happy for you to provide further information which gives me a different view. I am posting a link from a CNN report that talks about the misinformation that has been circulating online with regard to FEMA and the threats that have been made to FEMA employees.

Also a link which explains the role of FEMA. I'm not saying it can't be improved tbh I don't know enough about it and most organisations can be bureaucratic and cumbersome but I can't help wondering if Trump's responses are motivated by whether a state is Democrat or Republican eg his attitude to N Carolina is very different to California.
