they obviously tricked google and changed the 7 foot tall Newsom's height to 6'3" to make Trump look shorter and less masculine.

They would burst out laughing. I've been in that situation with a colleague, where the BS is so deep you can't risk setting each other off.

Both are leaders, knowing they have to take care of California, and let the Dumpster step in it in his usual way.

Yada Yada Yada, blah blah blah, of any politician I have ever listened to. He doesn't really say a thing...just sucks the air out the room...yeah, a forest.

Poor Gavin. Better go fund some rakes and throw in a bit of prison reform, get Dimwit Donnie started. He can lead the Charge of the Rakes into the California forest. The nation will cheer him on!

Trump's rank stupidity..."The Bureau of Land Management's National Landscape Conservation System (NLCS) includes over 850 federally recognized areas and in California, manages 15,500,000 acres (63,000 km2) of public lands, nearly 15% of the state's land area."

Meanwhile, people are suffering dreadfully, getting sick, needing to be re-evacuated, and homeless. The two governors are miles ahead of Trump in knowledge and intellect -- but he's the one who can deny them funds. So they will not say anything to upset him.

that are Democrats, but still know not to refer to the "Democrat Party".

I can see where someone would say "Democrat led" or "Democrat leader" because it feels grammatical, but absolutely no disrespect is intended to the Democratic Party.

Who is the woman?

California is a mosaic of various fire ecologies. Thinning, breaking up fuel ladders, and taking out dead material better yet followed by regular ground fire would restore the forests to closer to what was here before Europeans and also be a forest more fire resistant and less immediately susceptible to climate change effects. But the massive effects of current fires and the fire starts are in oak-woodland and chaparral ecologies that are infringed upon by human development. With climate change ecologies will find oak-woodlands reduced to grasslands or chaparral and oak-woodlands extending into what are now conifer forests. Repeated catastrophic fire will hasten this process.

But nature reigns over humanity. We can do our best and it not be enough. For example the Carr Fire (by Redding) started in the federal Whiskeytown National Recreation Area. There has been a 30 plus year program of prescribed burns in Whiskeytown NRA recognizing how susceptible the landscape is to fire but that fire was also an inherent process. The effort meant nothing when the fire event was so massive.

..... wet most of all the year. Mosses, ferns, lichens, fungi, rotting wood, and damp leaf litter
keeps the forest floor really wet almost year round. And when the winter snow pack melts it
saturates the forest floor even more.

First I want to point out that Newsom has his hands in his back pockets. You don't see that much anymore. I do it but it's odd to see people do it.

Newsom looks very uh ultra while Brown looks like he is comfortable and Trump looks like my uncle stuck in fashion technology from the early 80's.
