...coupled with staggering stupidity and infantile petulance.
While hundreds of houses were burning and well over two hundred thousand souls were evacuating, this ignorant, threatening tweet was Donald Dumb Fuck's first reaction to the California fires:
There is no reason for these massive, deadly and costly forest fires in California except that forest management is so poor. Billions of dollars are given each year, with so many lives lost, all because of gross mismanagement of the forests. Remedy now, or no more Fed payments!
1) There are no "forests" in the area of the Woolsey fire.
2) The Paradise fire broke out on Federal land, which is under Federal management.
3) Californians pay more in federal taxes than they get back in federal aid.
"The president’s assertion that California’s forest management policies are to blame for catastrophic wildfire is dangerously wrong," California Professional Firefighters President Brian K. Rice said in a statement on Saturday.
"Wildfires are sparked and spread not only in forested areas but in populated areas and open fields fueled by parched vegetation, high winds, low humidity and geography," he continued in the statement. "Moreover, nearly 60 percent of California forests are under federal management, and another two-thirds under private control. It is the federal government that has chosen to divert resources away from forest management, not California."
"Natural disasters are not “red” or “blue” – they destroy regardless of party," Rice concluded. "Right now, families are in mourning, thousands have lost homes, and a quarter-million Americans have been ****** to flee. At this desperate time, we would encourage the president to offer support in word and deed, instead of recrimination and blame."
Trumpy tried to make nice 2 days later, but had already once again exposed his true nature. What a giant log of **** this guy is
