99 percent of Hurricane Matthew aid requested by NC denied by Trump administration

8. Trump's FEMA also denied flood damage relief funding from May 2018 flooding in Asheville NC

Democratic Asheville area had over 14 inches of rain in May, causing close to 2 million dollars damage to public parks and facilities in May and expected at least $1 million in federal relief, but was denied and no money is forthcoming. Rightwing Congressman Mark Meadows has told Asheville not to expect anything.

I would not be surprised in the least if Trump Admin gives South Carolina all the help it requests and more, while stiffing North Carolina from getting adequate relief after this storm, just to politically hurt Gov. Cooper and the Democratic leaning cities of NC.
