He 11 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,000 was in fact greeted on the tarmac by North Carolina 12 00:00:36,039 --> 00:00:40,600 Governor Josh Stein. He then proceeded to tour some of 13 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:45,560 the devastated areas in Swannanoah, which is a town just 14 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,439 outside of Ashville. You've heard me mention Swanaoah repeatedly in 15 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:54,439 the last four months since the Hurricane Helene ripped through 16 00:00:54,439 --> 00:00:59,479 that area because Swannanoah is the location of an organization's 17 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,280 headquarter called Hearts with Hands. It's a disaster relief organization, 18 00:01:04,359 --> 00:01:08,480 and so they are based right there and they mobilized immediately. 19 00:01:08,519 --> 00:01:12,400 Their warehouse was spared actually, so all of their equipment 20 00:01:12,519 --> 00:01:16,439 and supplies and stuff they could immediately deploy and they 21 00:01:16,439 --> 00:01:19,920 are a good organization. I've donated money to them if 22 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,879 you're looking for one to donate to heartswidthhands dot org. 23 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:28,159 So that's Swana, Noah, that's where the president is. I've 24 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,959 gone to the beginning of the comments. 25 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 3: Here. 26 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: They've got a podium set up and looks like Reverend 27 00:01:34,359 --> 00:01:36,760 Franklin Graham starts off the. 28 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 2: Stars, starts off the comments. 29 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: Trump is there, Malani is there, and then there are 30 00:01:43,799 --> 00:01:46,799 a bunch of local residents that are with him. 31 00:01:47,519 --> 00:01:49,519 Speaker 2: Okay, so here he goes. He's walking I think up 32 00:01:49,519 --> 00:01:53,359 to the up to the lectern. 33 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: There are some more people standing behind the lectern there. 34 00:01:57,719 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 2: In front of a house that's just been just destroyed. 35 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: There's an RV off to the side of it as well. 36 00:02:05,519 --> 00:02:10,560 Franklin Graham is shaking people's hands one, two, three. 37 00:02:10,479 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 2: Four or five. Looks like about it's probably about ten 38 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:13,960 to twelve. 39 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,039 Speaker 1: Local folks that he's you know, walking down the line 40 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:22,719 shaking their hands. 41 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 2: All right, here's Franklin Graham. 42 00:02:28,159 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 4: It's a great honor to be here with these people 43 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:40,680 today that have suffered so much and to lose everything 44 00:02:40,759 --> 00:02:45,879 you have and you just wonder what you're going to do. 45 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,520 And where you're going to go.

And a lot of people have helped, and 49 00:02:59,439 --> 00:03:01,960 not just some Meriton's Purse, but there's been many different 50 00:03:02,039 --> 00:03:05,800 organizations and volunteers have just come to Western North Carolina 51 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,159 and East Tennessee to help. I grew up. This is 52 00:03:09,199 --> 00:03:12,159 my backyard. I grew up about eight miles or so 53 00:03:12,199 --> 00:03:16,039 from here, and a lot of went to high school 54 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,000 right down the road, about a mile down the road, 55 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:23,159 and so this is this is home to me. But 56 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,639 we've got a family today, and we've got the West family. 57 00:03:30,199 --> 00:03:35,599 This is their house.

This is 65 00:04:06,599 --> 00:04:08,479 a man who wants to do something, who wants to 66 00:04:08,479 --> 00:04:13,120 see some changes, who wants to make life better for you. 67 00:04:13,439 --> 00:04:16,720 So thank you, and Malanna, thank you so much for coming. 68 00:04:17,199 --> 00:04:19,759 It's an honor to have you here with us.

He's done a great job, 71 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,000 fantastic job. And we've come to North Carolina with a 72 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,519 simple message for all the people of this region who 73 00:04:34,519 --> 00:04:39,199 were hit so hard by Hurricane Helene. And that message 74 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,160 is very simple. You are not forgotten any longer. You 75 00:04:43,199 --> 00:04:47,040 were treated very badly by the previous administration. And I'm 76 00:04:47,079 --> 00:04:50,079 here after a few days of the administration. We're going 77 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,680 to California, Los Angeles. 78 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,439 Speaker 6: They got hit hard, as you know. A lot of 79 00:04:55,439 --> 00:04:57,120 that could have been prevented. 80 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,439 Speaker 5: I think if they had water, which they had plenty of, 81 00:04:59,519 --> 00:05:02,639 but they didn't use it. But I'm going there. But 82 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:04,839 we set up to go there, and they said, what 83 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,319 about North Carolina? They said, well, what would you? I said, 84 00:05:09,319 --> 00:05:11,920 I have to stop there first. I'm stopping in North Carolina. 85 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,519 So we made the stop and I feel very good. 86 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:19,480 You're represented by some great people, great great congressmen are 87 00:05:19,519 --> 00:05:22,800 with us, and we're going to get involved with him. 88 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,519 And Michael Wattley is here, who is the head of 89 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,120 the Republican Party. He worked with Laura Trump to take 90 00:05:29,199 --> 00:05:32,480 us through to a tremendous victory, one of the as 91 00:05:32,519 --> 00:05:37,000 the media says, one of the most consequential presidential elections ever. 92 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,720 They say, in one hundred and twenty nine years. Whatever 93 00:05:39,759 --> 00:05:43,279 that may mean, but whatever it is, it's it was 94 00:05:43,319 --> 00:05:45,399 a great election we had and we won year State. 95 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,720 All three times we won year State, and all three 96 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,199 primaries we won year State. So we wanted six times, 97 00:05:51,199 --> 00:05:54,839 I guess, mister Congressman, And it's a great place, and 98 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,720 I wanted to come here. And before I went anywhere, frankly, 99 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,800 in the campaign, I promise that I'd come back to 100 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,480 western North Carolina to help the people of the state. 101 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 6: And today here I am to deliver on that promise. 102 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,319 Speaker 5: And we have a lot of things in mind, and 103 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,279 we're getting the core of the Army Corps of Engineer 104 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,680 Engineers all set. You need your riverbanks fixed, you need 105 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,360 a lot of roads fixed, and we're going to get 106 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,920 it done in rapid time. And I've asked Susie Wiles 107 00:06:21,959 --> 00:06:25,120 and all of my people to start calling up get 108 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,800 the core ready, and they're going to get ready to go. 109 00:06:28,879 --> 00:06:29,639 Speaker 6: I don't know what it is. 110 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 5: I don't know what took so long for the other administration, 111 00:06:32,199 --> 00:06:35,279 but remember I wasn't here for the first four months 112 00:06:35,399 --> 00:06:38,079 or three months, whatever it may be. See, we can 113 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,240 only start as of essentially one or two days ago, 114 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,000 and we've made a lot of progress over the last 115 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,360 couple of days. Michael, I understand. We're going to get 116 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,759 you the resources you need and the support that you deserve, 117 00:06:48,879 --> 00:06:51,519 and we'll be at your side through every step of 118 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,240 the rebuilding. And no American is going to be left behind. 119 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,279 The people that I just met are so great, and 120 00:06:59,319 --> 00:07:01,120 the people that don't that house, that house is going 121 00:07:01,199 --> 00:07:04,360 to be very beautiful in a little while. And who knows, 122 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,040 if Franklin decides maybe he'll rip it down or build 123 00:07:07,079 --> 00:07:09,399 him a new one, because sometimes you can do that 124 00:07:09,519 --> 00:07:11,120 just as easily. But we're going to take care of 125 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,759 the people. I want to thank our great first lady 126 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,240 for coming today. She really wanted to be here. She said, no, 127 00:07:16,319 --> 00:07:20,120 I want to go, and you know, she sees what happened, 128 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,240 and she felt very badly and she wanted to go, 129 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:27,040 and were then going out together to Los Angeles, but 130 00:07:27,079 --> 00:07:29,399 she wanted to be in North Carolina. She said, what happened. 131 00:07:29,399 --> 00:07:32,680 She has a feeling like I do for North Carolina. 132 00:07:33,639 --> 00:07:37,040 So thanks as well to a great gentleman, Franklin Graham 133 00:07:37,079 --> 00:07:38,959 and his father. 134 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 6: Billy Graham. 135 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 5: I used to go with my father to Yankee Stadium 136 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,079 and places to watch his father preach. And he was 137 00:07:46,079 --> 00:07:50,360 some preacher where you got good stock. You come from, 138 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,720 you come from the ultimate jeans. 139 00:07:52,399 --> 00:07:55,759 Speaker 6: I can tell you. But he was really something. 140 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,319 Speaker 5: And Franklin, though, has done so much, and his father's 141 00:07:59,399 --> 00:08:01,360 looking down her him right now. I guarantee you for 142 00:08:01,439 --> 00:08:03,759 a long time he's been looking down on Franklin saying 143 00:08:04,199 --> 00:08:07,480 I'm very proud of you, son. He really is, because 144 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,839 what Franklin's done with Samaradan's purse is incredible. 145 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 6: They told me just yesterday. The Samaritan's person has been great. 146 00:08:14,879 --> 00:08:18,199 But the FEMA people sort of left you high and dry. 147 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:19,439 But we're going to change that around. 148 00:08:19,439 --> 00:08:22,439 Speaker 5: We're not happy with FAMA as well as all of 149 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:26,439 the representatives.

We 197 00:11:08,279 --> 00:11:10,759 were running them back so we can hear what he 198 00:11:10,799 --> 00:11:12,879 had to say out there and his plans for FEMA, 199 00:11:12,919 --> 00:11:15,279 and his plans to help the people of western North Carolina. 200 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,879 Speaker 5: It's ability and deepest obligation of the American government is 201 00:11:18,919 --> 00:11:22,759 to protect its people, and that's never truer than in 202 00:11:22,799 --> 00:11:26,360 times of emergency like this. Unfortunately, our government failed you, 203 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:28,799 but it wasn't the Trump government. 204 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 6: There was a government run by Biden. A What a 205 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:35,360 terrible situation. 206 00:11:35,919 --> 00:11:39,519 Speaker 5: But our government failed the people of North Carolina and 207 00:11:39,639 --> 00:11:44,360 this horrible crisis for two months Asheville lacked running water, 208 00:11:44,399 --> 00:11:47,960 and even today, some North Carolinians can't take a hot 209 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,000 water shower, they can't drink water. 210 00:11:51,639 --> 00:11:53,159 Speaker 6: They don't know where to get it. They have to 211 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:54,360 it's delivered. 212 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 5: To them by some where they just go out and 213 00:11:56,399 --> 00:11:59,759 somehow find some It's been four months since the storm 214 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,879 made landfill and still one hundred and eighty roads remain 215 00:12:03,399 --> 00:12:08,000 closed and in ruins. Earlier this month, the Biden administration 216 00:12:08,159 --> 00:12:12,679 kicked two thousand displaced North Carolinians out of their temporary 217 00:12:12,759 --> 00:12:14,759 housing inter freezing twenty degree weather. 218 00:12:14,799 --> 00:12:16,399 Speaker 6: I don't know how they did that one. 219 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 5: Because it was cold, even while your government provided shelter 220 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:21,960 and housing for legal. 221 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 6: Aliens from all over the world. 222 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,279 Speaker 5: But under the Trump administration, the days of betrayal and 223 00:12:27,399 --> 00:12:28,360 neglect are over. 224 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:30,039 Speaker 6: They are over. 225 00:12:31,279 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 5: As I said in my inaugural address, we restore the integrity, competency, 226 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,159 and loyalty of the American government. And I think I 227 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:45,200 said most of it in the inaugural address. We said 228 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,360 a lot of things, but one of the groups of 229 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,120 people I was thinking about is you in North Carolina. 230 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,039 A lot of that was in reference to you and 231 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,639 what you've had to suffer. I'm pleased to announce that 232 00:12:55,799 --> 00:12:58,799 under our leadership, the federal government will be surging housing 233 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:03,879 solutions of the state. They go beyond mere temporary hotel 234 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,279 stays that ended up being very short termed. The government 235 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,120 wouldn't do it any longer, which is ridiculous. Will marshal 236 00:13:11,159 --> 00:13:15,440 all available resources that bring back poudable water and make 237 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:20,480 your water and infrastructure dramatically more reliable, very quickly. Today, 238 00:13:20,519 --> 00:13:25,080 I'll also be signing an executive order slashing all red 239 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:29,600 tape and bureaucratic barriers and permits to ensure the rapid 240 00:13:29,639 --> 00:13:33,000 reconstruction of the roads here in western North Carolina. We're 241 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,720 going to go through a permitting process that's called no permitting. 242 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 6: Just get it done. That's the way they built them 243 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:40,000 many years ago. 244 00:13:40,039 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 5: I guarantee you that right we will get them back 245 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:49,600 very quickly, and we'll begin the work of fundamentally changing, terminating, 246 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,279 or overhauling FEMA. 247 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,519 Speaker 6: FEMA has been a disaster no matter where they are. 248 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,519 Speaker 5: We're honored to be joined today very quickly by several 249 00:13:56,519 --> 00:13:59,559 families affected by the vicious storm. I'd like to ask 250 00:14:00,159 --> 00:14:03,480 each of them to share their story. Chris and Kim West, 251 00:14:03,519 --> 00:14:04,440 you could come forward. 252 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 6: Ramona. 253 00:14:05,639 --> 00:14:07,759 Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna stop there, because at this point, 254 00:14:07,799 --> 00:14:11,639 he turns the microphone in the podium over to like 255 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:16,320 three or four different families and he just lets them talk. 256 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,960 And I would point out here, as we were watching 257 00:14:20,039 --> 00:14:23,399 this occur, we looked over at the other TV, the 258 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:30,360 other monitor here in the studio and CNN is not 259 00:14:30,519 --> 00:14:38,799 covering this live. CNN is instead showing the behind the 260 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,200 scenes story of the giant pandas at the DC Zoo. 261 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,240 That was literally the story that they were covering, rather 262 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:53,200 than the President's visit to Western North Carolina. Now, I 263 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:54,799 don't know if they're going to cover his visit to 264 00:14:54,879 --> 00:14:59,519 Los Angeles. If I was a betting man, I'd say yes, 265 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:05,080 but maybe not because it's Trump. After that story, they 266 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,639 went back to their studio to discuss in depth the 267 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:13,399 deportations of criminal aliens. Those were the stories that they 268 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:17,360 decided were more worthy of your attention as a CNN viewer, 269 00:15:17,399 --> 00:15:21,320 as an American CNN viewer, than the people of Western 270 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,799 North Carolina that, four months later, still are living intents. 271 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,960 All right, I hope you had a happy holiday season. 272 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,519 But tell me if something like this happened at your house. 273 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,399 Your family and friends are gathered around, Maybe y'all are 274 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,000 in the living room, You're laughing, swapping stories, reminiscing, and 275 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,840 then somebody says, hey, Dad, remember those old VHS tapes? 276 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,519 Did you ever get them transferred? And then the room 277 00:15:43,559 --> 00:15:47,360 gets all quiet. All eyes are on Dad, who says, oh, 278 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,480 you know, well, I've been meaning to, but I just 279 00:15:49,519 --> 00:15:52,480 having gotten around to it.

And uh, by the time we 312 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:39,000 got the vehicles moved, the water had already hit our 313 00:17:39,039 --> 00:17:44,440 ankles in the house, and so I grabbed my purse 314 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:50,119 and my little pug dog and my husband grabbed the 315 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,599 dog food and put it in a trash bag. And uh, 316 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,680 by the time we got out into the driveway, it 317 00:17:56,759 --> 00:18:01,279 was already waist deep and there was still and that 318 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:05,000 kind of thing. I didn't think I was gonna make it, 319 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,839 but we did make it out, and we made it 320 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,640 to the top of the road, and we were kind 321 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,880 of stuck there for hours because we couldn't get out 322 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,359 any of the ways because it was flooded all the 323 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:21,359 way around. It took us hours and we sat there 324 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:26,200 and finally it receded enough to where we could actually 325 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,839 get out. It was probably like close to midnight and 326 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:33,839 it started like five six o'clock in the morning. We 327 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:38,680 just lost everything that we had. Didn't even have a 328 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:40,319 brush for like three days. 329 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 6: Hurricano, thank you? 330 00:18:47,759 --> 00:18:51,759 Speaker 5: Okay, would you like to say something with that beautiful day? 331 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 6: So hey? 332 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,599 Speaker 3: Oh yeah. So when the hurricane storms. 333 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 2: Trump adjusting the mic Alin hit. 334 00:19:00,799 --> 00:19:02,880 Speaker 3: Our home, my daughter and my wife and I were 335 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:07,160 actually out of town, but unfortunately my dad who was 336 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:08,960 still at home and my mother was staying at our 337 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:13,839 house with our with our animals, and the water has 338 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,240 got so high that it actually lifted between that and 339 00:19:17,279 --> 00:19:20,319 the tornado that came through or micro versus what they've 340 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:24,000 been calling them, and lifted his home and the house 341 00:19:24,079 --> 00:19:26,839 that I grew up in and crashed it into our barn. 342 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,759 It took away his business, It took away all of 343 00:19:30,759 --> 00:19:34,119 our tools and tractors and everything needed to keep the 344 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,160 farm going. And my mother was trapped in the house 345 00:19:37,519 --> 00:19:40,200 and there was no way to escape because the water 346 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,799 got so high. The only thing she could do was 347 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:48,079 rided out and wait till the waters came down. So 348 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,759 we've been doing a little bit of battling with our 349 00:19:50,799 --> 00:19:55,000 insurance and FEMA. We did have proper insurance with flood 350 00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:00,000 insurance and homeowners insurance that since we had proper insurance, 351 00:20:00,519 --> 00:20:02,240 FEMA has not been able to assist us with a 352 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:07,319 whole lot of things. And again we've been having some 353 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:11,240 issues with trying to get some payout for our insurance 354 00:20:11,279 --> 00:20:12,319 in a timely manner. 355 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:12,799 Speaker 4: Uh. 356 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,559 Speaker 3: We had to do mold mitigation on our home, which 357 00:20:15,599 --> 00:20:19,640 is extremely expensive, before the structural engineer even came out 358 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:23,079 in order to get our flood payout. And to me, 359 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,599 that was not really acceptable. 360 00:20:25,799 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 6: This company been responsive or not. 361 00:20:27,759 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 2: Real, not not so much. 362 00:20:31,519 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 3: You know, again, give you. 363 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 2: The money they have to give you. 364 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,799 Speaker 3: I'm hoping so, and we might mean we need some 365 00:20:38,839 --> 00:20:42,480 assistance with that. We reached out to an attorney insurance company, 366 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:50,440 North Carolina Farm Bureau. That's what we're after here. 367 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 5: When the insurance companies general different insurance companies and they're 368 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,680 all difficult or just the one particular one. 369 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 3: I've heard different stories from others and a lot of 370 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,880 folks are and I've heard some some good instances of 371 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,920 even Farm Bureau themselves. But in my case, you know, 372 00:21:10,559 --> 00:21:13,640 they'd send out a third party adjuster immediately. Will they 373 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,240 wound up firing that third party adjuster group. He gave 374 00:21:17,319 --> 00:21:19,359 us a quote for a much higher estimate than what 375 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,079 we received and then he got let go. 376 00:21:22,319 --> 00:21:23,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, he got fired. 377 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 3: So then they brought in another third party adjuster to 378 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,799 come in and low ball us. We've not received any 379 00:21:28,839 --> 00:21:34,920 kind of so the flood insurances are primary insurance. And 380 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,960 so there was roof leaks in the home that the 381 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:42,440 inspectors found. The adjusters will that contributed to us losing 382 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,599 some of our personal properties that come in the third 383 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:49,000 story where there's no or second story living space where 384 00:21:49,039 --> 00:21:55,519 the floodwater well above the flood waters. So they've neglected 385 00:21:55,559 --> 00:22:01,000 us for yes, yes, she said, she's right here. Okay, 386 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:02,839 so we yeah, we made it. 387 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,079 Speaker 8: It's not exciting, right, that's right. 388 00:22:05,559 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 9: I was scared. 389 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 4: Were you scared? 390 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:07,799 Speaker 9: You thought? 391 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 6: Did you think you were gonna make it? No, you 392 00:22:10,279 --> 00:22:13,319 didn't think so, No, I just started praying. So you 393 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:14,279 were sort of in a boat. 394 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,839 Speaker 5: Your house became a boat at some. 395 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,759 Speaker 4: Story because at the beach house on the steps. I'll 396 00:22:21,799 --> 00:22:22,160 bet this. 397 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 8: Guy I was next door to the house and my 398 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,319 son was out of town. So when he came in. 399 00:22:36,039 --> 00:22:37,519 Speaker 2: To Charlotte to my. 400 00:22:37,519 --> 00:22:42,279 Speaker 8: Sisters, he called about two in the morning, because at 401 00:22:42,599 --> 00:22:46,960 midnight the water was still in the strain right within 402 00:22:47,039 --> 00:22:53,000 the banks. So when he called, the water was coming up. 403 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:59,279 So I started moving vehicles up till about five thirty 404 00:22:59,279 --> 00:23:03,720 in the morning, and she was in the house and 405 00:23:03,759 --> 00:23:06,319 I pulled up to the steps and I said, hop 406 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,519 on the fender and I'll get you out. Well, he 407 00:23:09,599 --> 00:23:13,720 built a beach house on stills right, five times higher 408 00:23:13,759 --> 00:23:19,559 than the flood plane. And she said, well, he said, 409 00:23:19,759 --> 00:23:23,359 I'd be okay, So I'm staying with the dogs, right. 410 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,680 So I went to the higher ground with some vehicles, hers included, 411 00:23:28,519 --> 00:23:33,440 and the water covered everything. But I had already seen 412 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,400 it come around both sides of my place. So I 413 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:41,119 got my buying and deaf dog and a bag of 414 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:45,599 aables and took up off the side of the hill 415 00:23:45,839 --> 00:23:52,039 behind my house and then was heading to the cemetery 416 00:23:52,319 --> 00:23:54,400 back there, cause I knew it was open cause there 417 00:23:54,519 --> 00:24:04,880 was trees falling right and right uprooting.

President Trump has been visiting, touring 450 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,759 the area a little bit and talking with families, and 451 00:25:43,799 --> 00:25:48,680 he's giving them microphone time at this media availability to 452 00:25:48,759 --> 00:25:53,799 let them tell their stories to the national press. Here's 453 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,240 the third family, that or fourth family, I guess. I 454 00:25:57,279 --> 00:26:00,599 came to the Microcrafita day. 455 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 9: That morning began a little taller with some trees falling 456 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:08,599 into our house, which our houses goes back four generations 457 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,680 eighty years and never came close to flooding. And we 458 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:14,759 woke up with the trees about four thirty or five 459 00:26:14,799 --> 00:26:17,960 in the morning. And our house sits three tenths of 460 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,240 a mile back off the road and the water. You know, 461 00:26:21,319 --> 00:26:23,759 we've had flooding and such in the lake, but nothing 462 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:27,599 like we saw. And like most everybody else, we moved 463 00:26:27,839 --> 00:26:32,119 five vehicles this far up, lawnmowers and everything else, and 464 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,880 the water started coming in the house and we got 465 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,480 up to about ankle high. We have a loft. I 466 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,680 got her up in that and tried to gather what 467 00:26:40,799 --> 00:26:44,200 you might want, which was totally random. And then when 468 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,759 it made it to the loft and started getting up 469 00:26:46,759 --> 00:26:49,799 to about our hips, I built a little makeshift ladder 470 00:26:49,839 --> 00:26:52,720 and we got out on our roof and we spent 471 00:26:52,839 --> 00:26:55,960 four hours on the roof. I had a little bag. Yeah, 472 00:26:56,079 --> 00:26:59,960 I did notes on my cellphone to my two kids, 473 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:04,200 had some of my two grandkids, and something to identify 474 00:27:04,279 --> 00:27:07,400 me in case we were lost in it. It now 475 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,759 we're yeah, we do, We're going to make it at all. 476 00:27:10,799 --> 00:27:14,759 I mean our house was twenty five feet underwater and no, 477 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:19,400 we were watching houses, trailers, bodies coming by us. 478 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 4: Uh. 479 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:27,400 Speaker 9: And we lived in the Azalea Road area in East Ashville, Tea. Yeah, 480 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:32,359 we watched our garage float by. Yeah, but uh, you know, 481 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,200 we we got to a point where it crested about 482 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,920 four feet up on the roof. We took about three 483 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:39,720 or four hours for it, so we could kind of 484 00:27:39,799 --> 00:27:42,799 do everything in reverse and got out in the mud 485 00:27:42,839 --> 00:27:47,559 to higher ground. Uh. And I got out higher ground 486 00:27:47,599 --> 00:27:51,640 up to a subway and got over to her daughter's house, 487 00:27:51,839 --> 00:27:54,720 where when she saw that I didn't have her, she 488 00:27:54,839 --> 00:27:56,839 lost it and I was like, she's okay, she's alive 489 00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,640 and we tried to make our way back in there 490 00:27:59,759 --> 00:28:02,720 and out of things best we could, but you know, 491 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:03,559 found a. 492 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:04,279 Speaker 6: Body right away. 493 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,599 Speaker 9: We had their about eight bodies in our area that 494 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,279 first two weeks located and we were lucky we weren't 495 00:28:09,279 --> 00:28:13,240 one of them and blessed, but like other people, of 496 00:28:13,559 --> 00:28:16,279 no insurance on flood insurance, so we we had to 497 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,839 depend on FEMA. They did what they could do, and 498 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:24,400 of course it's not enough. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's crazy. 499 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,200 But again we're thankful to be alive. But it's a 500 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:31,160 long haul staying in the camper. I've never been off, 501 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:32,960 y'all knowiced I'm a big guy. I don't sleep in 502 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,799 camper very well.

And Trump said it at the very beginning. 522 00:29:40,039 --> 00:29:42,160 He said, We're going to get you all the resources 523 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:48,839 you need. And uh, he said, we're going to We're 524 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:56,000 gonna slash red tape, remove bureaucratic barriers, and remove permitting 525 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:58,880 to get stuff built. He said the Army Corps of 526 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:03,000 Engineers has been dispatched. He said, I don't know why 527 00:30:03,039 --> 00:30:06,039 this hasn't been done. He says the government failed the 528 00:30:06,039 --> 00:30:09,960 people of North Carolina. But the days of betrayal and 529 00:30:10,079 --> 00:30:13,559 neglect are over all.
