As Hurricane Milton heads towards the West Florida Coast, imagine if hurricane victims could not count on the federal government for aid. If Trump's Project 2025 is implemented, this nightmare becomes a reality. Hurricane Milton is predicted to be a Category Five storm, a once in 100 year hurricane. But if Trump is elected, his Project 2025 will make natural disasters even more of a nightmare.
Trump's Project 2025 Wants to Cut Disaster Assistance
Here are a few ways Trump's Project 2025 will make natural disasters worse.
Project 2025’s Mandate for Leadership, pg. 674-5: “This industry’s mission emphasis on prediction and management seems designed around the fatal conceit of planning for the unplannable.

California Rep. Adam Schiff and Steve Garvey are vying for the late Diane Feinstein's Senate seat. Garvey, a Trumper with no political experience, was left "speechless" at one point in the debate. Schiff holds a commanding lead in the polls, and this was Garvey's only opportunity to debate his Democratic opponent.

"The fact that you think that's perfectly okay, that you still want to support the guy who incited that violent attack, that tells me that you would never take your oath of office seriously as I do," Schiff added.
Garvey had 30 seconds to respond but came up with nothing.
"I've left him speechless," Schiff remarked.
