BREAKING: Trump is Delivering Truckloads of Water to East Palestine

Former US President Donald Trump is arriving in East Palestine on Wednesday to provide aid in the aftermath of a train derailment that had caused havoc in the small town. Trump personally helped with the delivery of numerous truckloads of bottled water to the affected area.

According to John Rourke, CEO of Blue Line Moving, the company that transported the water pallets to East Palestine, they moved a total of 13 pallets, equivalent to more than 14,000 bottles, to assist the small town.

Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung told Breitbart News, “President Trump is meeting with the citizens of East Palestine, and he will never forget them and what they are going through. Contrast that with Biden and the federal government, who have failed them from the beginning.”

Breitbart wrote:

Both President Joe Biden and U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg have yet to visit East Palestine, despite the train disaster having occurred nearly three weeks ago.

On February 3, a train operated by Norfolk Southern was carrying chemicals — including vinyl chloride, a highly volatile colorless gas — when it derailed, spilling the chemicals, and sparking a fire, which sent thick billowing smoke into the sky.

Cleanup crews ended up igniting five train cars to get rid of toxic chemicals in a controlled environment, which created a menacing plume of thick smoke that resembled a mushroom cloud. Images of the controlled detonation were later circulated on social media, sparking concerns around the nation.

The incident resulted in about half of the town’s population being ordered to evacuate. While residents have since been told they are allowed to return to their homes, many are still concerned and want answers — but Biden and Buttigieg are nowhere to be found.
