    My God. I have visited and camped in this wonderful National Park. Joshua Tree is special. This is devastating. Those grounds, those trees, those spaces are sacred. Shame on the Trump administration for this.https://twitter.com/johnupton/status/1083387896403505153 …

    During the shutdown, with Joshua Tree National Park open but no staff on duty, visitors cut down Joshua trees so they could drive into sensitive areas where vehicles are banned.

        My family has visited and camped in National Parks all over the country. I doubt Trump has even visited many of them. He damn sure hasn’t camped in them and seen just how beautiful and special they truly are. They are being destroyed right now and it’s heartbreaking.

        These are the same people that don’t want government/law enforcement telling them what to do. And EXACTLY why we need rules/laws in place bc left on their own, they will destroy everything.

        Knowing Trump, he thinks the Joshua Tree is a U2 album.

        I can’t see the video, but if there is destruction it must be by people who DON’T CARE! Sounds like Trump supporters to me.
