He should've told them they should not have allowed people to build in forests.
He should've told them:
"Never mind about climate change...you let me worry about that...you should be doing something about the absolute disgrace that is skid row in LA and the millions of rats and mice that have taken over city hall, skid row etc.

[Hairy Lime]

Those sitting at the table...shown on my tv...sure seemed to be blaming him and his climate change policies for the fires.
I'll bet those fires have burned most years since granny ran for Possum Queen, and Jethro, Ellie May, and Jed were helping her to.

1) His climate policies don't help. But since you don't believe in climate change, oh wait, you changed your mind, now you foolishly just don't believe humans had any effect on it despite the pollution pictures from China, for example, but since you don't believe in man-influenced climate change, you also believe we are helpless.

Jeez, but you are a fool.

2) You lose your bet. There has never been a year like this, dolt. Think otherwise? Go find evidence that prior years have been like this.

Let me help:
This is a list of the largest fires on record in California, going back to 1932. Please note the largest fires. #1, 3, 4, 8, and 13 are from August or September of 2020.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_California_wildfires

As it happens, 17 of the largest Cali fires ever have been from 2003 to 2020. Five of them are from 2020, as noted above. No other year has as many as TWO, Bambi.

"Only" two of the deadliest wildfires are from 2020. Two are from 2018 and three from 2017. "Only" twelve of the 22 deadliest wildfires are from 2003 to present, so far. The 2018 fire was deadlier than the numbers 2, 3, and 4 fires combined.

2018 saw the greatest amount of burnt acreage, over 1.9 million acres burnt by over 8,500 wildfires.

2020 is not in that chart, but... from the top chart of greatest fires, the 5 listed for 2020 are already ahead of that: 2,108,561! That's just 5 of the 7,700+ fires they have had thus far this year. Total through yesterday?

As of September 14, 2020, a total of 7,718 fires have burned 3,451,428 acres. It's pretty likely that 2020 will see double the amount of burnt acreage of the next highest total.

So, eat shit, Bambi. Or...

TRY LOOKING STUFF UP BEFORE TYPING.

CA officials they were.
He travelled there.
He shouldn't have to spent his day arguing with the "climate change" alarmists.
He's probably read all the hatred of him coming out of blue state CA.
Protests on his arrival.
A wonder he even held a meeting with CA officials.
A wonder he didn't get back in his plane and go back to Washington and leave them to it.
Drought...the place was a tinder box waiting to explode.
Got plenty of eucalypts there.
He should've asked them what they'd been doing...why they weren't prepared.

He should have had a meaningful discussion with them, listened to their needs and freed up federal assistance.  But he is a snowflake, and perpetually butt hurt and vindictive.

Similarly, he did not cause the fires, but billions of dollars of property damage might have been avoided had he acted more swiftly.



heh

I've been stopped by police all over New England. Highways, small affluent towns, small poor towns. Anything from "looking like the suspect" to failure to stop at a crosswalk.
Never had backup called while I was stopped. Not once.

1) you white
2) not usually with traffic stops, but once it evolves into anything even slightly more

Yes, those were my points.

And increasingly with traffic stops, as with the post I just made.

Kid, as ever, is amused at others' suffering and Trump's failure to act.

[LarryBnDC]

They were climbing into Trump about the CA fires..."climate change".
He: "It'll get cooler, you watch".  lol

Of course the fires are all Trump's fault...lol

Good lord you're a jerk.

Nobody has said the fires are Trump's fault.

NO FUCKING BODY.

What we have said is that it is his fault that he has refused to acknowledge the science behind the fires, on one hand, while being incredibly slow to provide federal assistance to deal with the fires and their consequences, on the other hand.

And on the third hand, he offered US help to RUSSIA for their fires! I don't mind helping Russia. I mind helping Russia, while refusing to help US citizens.

And... Trump also ignores that the majority of California forests are managed by the federal government.

Trump did not cause the novel coronavirus. He caused the federal government to respond inadequately to it and he caused tons of people to believe they did not need masks, leading to tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths.

Similarly, he did not cause the fires, but billions of dollars of property damage might have been avoided had he acted more swiftly.

Are you seriously debating those points, Bambi?

Those sitting at the table...shown on my tv...sure seemed to be blaming him and his climate change policies for the fires.

You’re an idiot.

[LarryBnDC]

Caputo is unhinged.  Needs to be excised.
Amazing that they brought this talk radio guy who used to shill for Putin in to run an important agency during an epidemic crisis.

Capitol is part of the Manafort, Stone dirty tricks squad.

[LarryBnDC]

He should've told them they should not have allowed people to build in forests.
He should've told them:
"Never mind about climate change...you let me worry about that...you should be doing something about the absolute disgrace that is skid row in LA and the millions of rats and mice that have taken over city hall, skid row etc.

53% of the forest fires are on federal land.

“This is deadly stuff”

Shut the fuck up.

As nearly every Black person has been trying to tell the media since the invention of “police”: cops lie. They lie, mislead, or issue untruthful statements all the time. White journalists must stop repeating police lies, uncritically, without demanding evidence to back up police claims or even doing a bare-minimum Google search to see if there is video that directly contradicts police statements.

Good cause to whale the crap out of a kid, if not shoot him!

We still treat the white folk who say that differently from the Black folk, Kid.
