Damage is SELF-INFLICTED by their STUPID environ-whacko forest mismanagement policies. PAY FOR IT YOURSELF, California, and leave the rest of us alone.

Why should he give this state anything..apparently California has enough money to pay fraudsters plenty of EDD benefits(To kids, illegals, people in the Philippines) and lets not forget the non stop payment to illegals..so CA has the money

Just like he wouldn’t pay Minneapolis to rebuild from rioting they refused to stop.

People need to realize that this problem is created by poorly managed forests.

We have a giant pine forest in New Jersey, it is huge and we do have wildfires but they are always end up controlled because we have forest management.

California is doing something really wrong where this is a problem every year.

I don’t understand how they can keep doing the same year after year and expecting a different result. Eventually people of California need to vote out these idiots and get people who want to fix the real problems instead of worrying about imaginary ones

Just have the Cali legislature pass an anti-climate change bill.

Done! 🤣

Nobody knows why the aid was denied, so the author makes up stuff to castigate President Trump. Maybe it is some clerical error, like Newsom forgot to sign the request.

I wouldn’t be surprised if my state of Washington made a request as well. We have the same whacky non-maintenance of our forests as California has.

I hope we are denied aid to Seattle, too, after we let downtown be destroyed by the “mostly peaceful” riots.

Dimocrats like to destroy forests and cities.

I would assume there is a valid reason to deny the Funds.

A POTUS just can’t single out a State without a reason in withholding Federal Disaster Funds. It will be sold to the Public that it’s a Political Vendetta, which is just what we don’t need with the Election so close.

Imagine if a DEMONcRAT POTUS did this to a Red State. Unlike the Left, we don’t own the Media.

You can easily lose Voters from other States if they perceive this as some kind of payback, which would feed into the Leftist Narrative that Trump is mean and uncaring.

Sorry, I won’t join the CA deserves it mantra.

Yeah, right, Newsom is going to forget to sign a request for hundreds of millions of dollars.

No, this is Trump sending a message to Blue Staters that he’s not picking-up the tab to clean-up after their incompetence.

About damned time.

This IS California’s forest management program! Do nothing, allow wild fires to destroy 250,000 acres per year.

Why should U.S. taxpayers pay for California’s forest management program?

Cali has been digging a hole for themself ever before Reagan died.

NOTHING that Trump does for them will ever be enough for them as they are totally controlled by liberal morons.
