Weve got to take care of the floors. The floors of the forest, Trump said in Paradise, CA.Weve got to take care of the floors, you know the floors of the forest, very important, he continued. You look at other countries where they do it differently and its a whole different story. I was with the president of Finland and he said were a forest nation, he called it a forest nation, and they spend a lot of time on raking and cleaning and doing things. They dont have any problem, and what it is, its a very small problem.
Average relative humidity in Helsinki. 🤦♀️

Wonder why, even after everyone told him to go for the 'relaxed fit', he went with the 'boot cut' pants?

and people hired to "rake" the forests we have in America at $15 an hour. Did Trump think of that?
Probably not.

Trump: "You gotta take care of the floors. You know the floors of the forest, very important... I was with the President of Finland... he called it a forest nation and they spent a lot of time on raking and cleaning and doing things and they don't have any problem."
The humidity during Santa Anas is in the single digits...Finland has humidity that is 80% +, not 6%, and they don't have hot, dry Santa Ana winds blowing from the East (deserts).

Golden Raisin
(4,608 posts)5. He couldn't point out Finland on a map of the world
if his life depended on it. Did he pass out rakes to devastated Californians like his goddamn paper towels to Puerto Ricans after Hurricane Maria?
