As Hurricane Milton continues to impact communities across the Southeast, President Joe Biden has publicly called on former President Donald Trump to “get a life” and focus on aiding storm victims rather than engaging in political disputes. This comes as the death toll from the hurricane has risen, with reports indicating at least 20 fatalities and widespread destruction in affected areas.
Biden, during a press conference, emphasized the importance of unity and collective action in the face of disaster. He urged all political leaders to prioritize the needs of those affected by the storm, highlighting ongoing federal efforts to provide support and resources for recovery.
The hurricane has caused severe flooding, power outages, and significant damage to infrastructure, prompting emergency declarations in several states. Relief efforts are underway, with local and federal agencies mobilizing to assist displaced residents and restore essential services.
As the situation develops, both Biden and Trump are facing pressure to address the needs of constituents impacted by the storm. The President reiterated that bipartisan cooperation is crucial during such crises, calling for a focus on recovery rather than partisan politics.
