There sure hasn’t been much coverage in the news of this. Instead we have seen networks give saturation coverage to something stupid said by Trump years ago. That’s more important than this disaster. (Sarcasm)

Exactly. The death toll in the US is now 39 and it is not even mentioned on national or local news’ stations. The weather channel is somewhat repetitive with the same pictures and has been covering the NC floods continuously.
