Karoline Leavitt criticized Democrats and media for blaming President Trump for flooding-related deaths in Texas. At least 90 people were dead or missing due to the floods. Leavitt expressed condolences for the victims and families, emphasizing the continued danger in the area. She asserted that claims against Trump are false and unfounded, especially highlighting the National Weather Service's effective warnings prior to the floods. Specific actions by the Weather Service, including timely forecasts and additional staffing during the storms, were mentioned to support her statements.
Blaming President Trump for these floods is a depraved lie, and it serves no purpose during this time of national mourning.
The National Weather Service executed timely and precise forecasts and warnings. Flash flood warnings were also issued on the night of July 3, and in the early morning of July 4.
National Weather Service office in New Braunfels had extra staff on duty during the storms, despite claims of the contrary.
Everyone here at the White House, including the president of the United States, is praying for the victims' families and friends during this unimaginable time.
