Watching the reporting on the California fires...the devastation and loss of life is heart breaking.

The response by our alleged national leader is that these people didn’t rake their leaves? What does that even mean? Do they deserve this? Is an appropriate penalty for not raking leaves, in his mind, burning to death? Suffocating in ferocious heat? Choking to death in acrid dense smoke?

Entire towns are wiped out, tens of thousands of people are evacuated, over a thousand people are missing and the fires rage on. The PRESIDENT has no mercy in his heart, no heart in his demeanor, no care for the victims of this disaster.

Didn’t rake their leaves indeed.

It’s almost like the gods are punishing us for being global assholes.

His removal from office will be a form of political raking that is long over due.

1. And he thinks/believes its our fault he got elected, so skies the limit on whatever he

feels like doing. Paper towels for Puerto Rico, raking advice for CA. He should take a few days off and go golfing and charge us a few million now, he really out did himself. Wish he'd just go away.

2. Re raking, Paradise had regulation in place to similar effect

Removal of dry grass, brush, leaves, pine needles, etc up to 100 feet from structures and from roofs. I've read some people's stories about taking fifteen minutes with a leaf blower to give their roof a final once-over before evacuating

No effect whatsoever against fire driven sideways by 50 MPH wind
