President Donald Trump promised strong federal support as he visited flood-soaked North Carolina in the aftermath of Hurricane Florence. President Donald Trump arrived Wednesday in North Carolina to see the destruction left by Hurricane Florence and the challenging relief efforts that are underway. “We will never forget your loss, we will never leave your side. We are with you all the way. And to all those impacted by this entire storm our entire American family is with you and ready to help and you will recover,” Trump said shortly after arriving at the Marine Corps Air Station in Cherry Point, North Carolina. Trump went to the storm-ravaged town of New Bern, where he handed out meals and mingled with residents. “How’s the house?” Trump asked one person and added, “Take care of yourself.” Trump told another person who waited in line for a meal to “have a good time.” Trump also asked about an area northeast of the city of Charlotte, where he owns a golf course. “How’s Lake Norman doing,” Trump inquired. “I love that area. I can’t tell you why, but I love that area.”
