President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump made a heartfelt visit to North Carolina on Friday to meet with communities devastated by last year’s Hurricane Helene.
The powerful storm, which struck in September, tore through the Gulf Coast and left a trail of destruction in North Carolina’s mountainous regions. Asheville was hit particularly hard, suffering record-breaking flooding, widespread power outages, and extensive damage. Tragically, the hurricane claimed 104 lives across the state.
