East Palestine Mayor lauds Donald Trump’s ‘leadership’ after train disaster

East Palestine Mayor Trent Conaway discusses the “clear difference” between Donald Trump and Joe Biden in their response to last year’s infamous train disaster. In February 2023, a freight train with tankers of toxic chemicals derailed and caught fire in the town of East Palestine in Ohio. “In the chaos, we witnessed a clear contrast between leadership and incompetence,” Mr Conaway said. “We need a leader who values small town communities as much as big cities.”
