Biden was speaking Tuesday on the damage done by Hurricane Ida in New Jersey and New York when he stated, “It’s all across the country, you know, the members of Congress know from their colleagues in Congress that uh, you know, it looks like a tornado, they don’t call ’em that anymore, that hit the crops and wetlands in the middle of the country in Iowa and Nevada and I mean, it’s just across the board. And uh, you know um, as I said, we’re in this together.”
While unclear as to what it was which Biden was referring, he may have been referencing the derecho that hit Iowa in August 2020, according to Breitbart.
