Why does this even seem crazy?! It is what should have happened from the get-go. The incompetence of the last P and VP is shameful.

Americans have become so accustomed to government inaction, Trump’s order feels like a miracle.
If this could have been set in motion by the Biden Administration all along, then why wasn’t it done? Commenters have some ideas and they’re not holding back. Have a look.
Proof
Democrats wanted you DEAD

No money in it for them. Biden was never in charge and those who “played” the president didn’t care about NC.

Did we say posters have ideas? The anger and betrayal people feel towards the previous administration is incendiary.
He was too busy sleeping on the beach.

I think there are several reasons. Biden hated these people because they largely supported Trump. Green interests saw an opportunity to reverse development. Industry wanted the lithium under the ground at a bargain price.

Well Biden did a whole lot
For Ukraine

The order is much-needed, but many feel uncaring government employees and red tape could still rear their ugly heads.
Don’t let up the pressure, some of these roadways they’ll want to study for 5 years before they’ll even crack a cement bag

Oh I’m so happy to hear this! I’ve been trying to explain to people how critically important these private bridges are and it’s just not obvious unless you know the area.
Thank you @realDonaldTrump for paying attention to the details!!

The fact he had to sign this executive order to force FEMA to do their job tells you all you need to know🤦♂️

The mission of federal agencies like FEMA seems pretty obvious, but in the recent past that mission has been abandoned. That Trump has to sign a letter to get them moving and focused tells citizens, especially in North Carolina, there is still lots of work to be done to align the government with the needs of voters.
