“Californians wonder why Trump isn’t tweeting about the fatal wildfires
The newspaper board means where is he on Twitter — or as the board says, “How many times has Trump tweeted about the fires since they were whipped by winds into life-threatening force early Monday: zero.”
Zero, true, as of early Sunday evening. As the Chronicle notes, Trump did speak once, offline, about the fires. A few days ago, he promised to “stand with” Californians and said he’s in touch with the governor — and then welcomed the Pittsburgh Penguins to the White House and turned to other matters.
But the death toll in California has doubled to 41 since then, thousands of homes and millions of acres have been burned — and “one voice has been conspicuously mute,” the Chronicle wrote.”
I wish he would say something. People appreciated VP Pence and his wife were there, and folks appreciated that.
Another heart-warming story of a family returning home to their burned down house. Their shepherding dog saved goats and baby deer.
