Former President Donald Trump mocked President Joe Biden during a visit to hurricane-ravaged Georgia on Monday, saying he had not discussed federal disaster relief efforts with the sitting president because he didn&#8217;t want to wake him.
Trump made the comments during a planned stop in <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-to-visit-georgia-city-ravaged-by-helene-as-storms-death-toll-nears-100" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Valdosta, Georgia</a>, where he planned to meet with emergency responders and speak with reporters in addition to handing out supplies to residents impacted by the storm.

&#8220;Have you reached out to President Biden about federal relief efforts?&#8221; one reporter asked Trump.
&#8220;No, I haven&#8217;t reached out to him. I think he&#8217;s sleeping right now, actually,&#8221; the former president replied.

Trump praised the efforts of Governor Brian Kemp (R-GA) and continued to call out the Biden-Harris administration over its failure to address the situation that is <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/remnants-of-hurricane-helene-continue-to-wreak-havoc-on-southeastern-u-s" target="_blank" rel="noopener">still unfolding</a> across the southeastern United States.

President Biden was also pressed on Monday about why he and Vice President Kamala Harris — who is currently running against Trump in the 2024 presidential race — had not returned to Washington, D.C., in order to better coordinate federal relief efforts. Biden responded by claiming he had been in &#8220;command&#8221; of the situation because he had spent two hours on the phone.

Harris, who was fundraising over the weekend — raking in millions from Hollywood heavyweights — released a statement through the White House stating that she planned to visit some of the areas most impacted by the hurricane &#8220;as soon as it is possible without disrupting emergency response operations.&#8221;
