Now lets hope that our elected legislators can provide the financial support that is needed to deal with the catastrophe that those wildfires are perpetuating!

(5,656 posts)He is burying himself in written word on Twitter. The statement in the OP is informed and well written, the truth, has substantiating evidence and just nails rumps ass to the wall!
I personally do not think twitter belongs in politics. Bad idea for any politician to use it.

I think Twitter has value for real politicians to communicate information that has value.
As a stream of consciousness platform for Trump to seek revenge, inflict harm, and promote his own self-interests, not so much.

(12,448 posts)Trump pretends to respect the military and he gave visiting a WWI memorial a pass when other world leaders attended. He pretends to respect first responders while insulting firefighters and California's forest management, laying blame for a tragedy where it doesn't belong.
Rep. Adam Schiff and Rep. Maxine Waters, both from California and about to become Chairs of powerful House Committees, are likely taking note.

But a great statement that deserves to be read on all the major media outlets.
