Both Murray and Cantwell would do well to play nice with Trump if they want help. I think Trump should hold their feet to the fire for awhile.

I am here in Yakima and have been breathing smoke for over two weeks.

In addition, the Jolly Mountain fire took a week before it really exploded. The Forest Service and BLM had time to bring in resources before the real damage was done.

The experts keep complaining about not having enough money. But, the cost has exploded along with the fire. It would have been better to bring in the choppers and scoop planes while the fire was still controllable.

Now there is the additional cost of burned up timber, wildlife habitat and a lot of the land is in scenic areas that are no longer scenic.
