        It is really hard to imagine the devastation of this fire in California. Trump has never addressed it, has not flown out and looked at the damage. He is nobody ‘s President.

        Is this the fire that was started by the trump supporting neo Nazi?

        If I’m not mistaken, the Carr fire was started by an old guy’s bumper hanging low and sparking on the asphalt. Sad accident.

        This is not from climate change. Its from poor forestry management. When man moved in, they stopped allowing forests from burning naturally every couple of years. Now when they do burn, every 30 to 50 years, they are so densely over grown they can't control them.

        You are wrong, it's not me saying that it's data! CA had a fire season for decades. It was obviously in hot summer months, now CA has fire season extended to much of the year and that correlates perfectly with the rising temperatures. Second largest fire in CA was last winter!!!

        Your not looking at much data then! I've lived long enough to see it with my own eyes. I've seen much worse in my lifetime.

        I'm looking at a ton of data published in peer reviewed journals from researchers. What you just said has no merits in the real world. We should make policies based on real data and scientific analysis not how we feel about things. Trump policies are self serving unfortunately.
