WITHOUT editorializing on them, I don't know why so many folks don't understand the difference.
If tRump says "The sky is green", reporters are supposed to write up a story about that occurrence.
It's editorial page people, journalists, and TV commentators whose job it is to say THIS GUY IS NUCKING FUTS!

They are far too complacent in calling him out for what he is--an ignorant incompetent buffoon. Without real time fact checking, MSM is a waste of time.

The election results were not favorable to him and he sees it as the enemy being a Democratic state.

Everything he does is in hate and vindictiveness

is that until recently, most wildfire activity in the west coast states has happened in the east sides of CA, OR, and WA. These areas are very red and have been supportive of Donnie O.

So not only is everything he does hateful and vindictive it's also stupid and ignorant. His days are numbered.

It's life cycle is based around fire.

And it is not forest land under the control of the federal government. It is not for the production of timber and has nothing to do with the the forest/management.

This like Trump not knowing the difference between the Balkan vs Baltic nations.

the fact that the state is deep, azure blue. He doesn't know that there are no forests anywhere near the LA area - just scrub brush and chaparral. He doesn't know that the forests in Northern California are managed by the National Forest Service. He doesn't care. California did not vote for him, so it is an enemy state, deserving of any disaster that comes its way, as far as he is concerned.

Trump is not just a moron. He is a vengeful moron.

You think California won’t remember this? At breakfast this morning we were talking about this and it was pointed out that a lot of law enforcement AND fire personnel tend to vote GOP. I’d venture to guess that The Asset won’t be able to count on THEIR support after this, either.

This is total vindictive, petty, extremely SMALL and pathetic and nasty behavior. The behavior of a selfish spoiled-brat piss-ant. And those who still somehow incomprehensibly stand with him - BY NOW???? All that tells me is that they’re the same damn thing.
