And yet I bet every one of those 5 Democrats would have done the far more important thing and voted to give financial aid and support to rebuilding western NC. Do you know who really doesn't give a shit about western NC? The Trump Administration, which denied Governor Stein's request for more FEMA money to help rebuild damaged areas in western NC. So Trump did (briefly) visit western NC, actually saw the devastation first-hand, and then still turned down extra FEMA aid anyway. And they also just denied GOP Gov. Huckabee's request in Arkansas for FEMA money to help areas affected by the recent tornado outbreak there rebuild.
Your party is so full of shit on this issue that they simply have no credibility and no ground to stand on. You can't claim that you care about a devastated region when you simply drop in for a visit and then deny desperately needed requests for federal funding that would help the area get back on its feet.
