Newsom: Trump’s Politicizing Wildfires ‘Incomprehensible,’ ‘Threatening Our First Responders’
Breitbart ^ | 01/12/2025 | Pam Key

Posted on 01/12/2025 11:38:31 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) claimed Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that President-elect Donald Trump was politicizing wildfires in Southern California.

Reporter Jacob Soboroff asked, “President-elect Trump has blamed you for this crisis. He’s called you incompetent. What’s your response?”

Newsom said, “Well, I called for him to come out, take a look for himself. We want to do it in the spirit of an open hand, not a closed fist. He’s the president-elect. I respect the office. We have a president of the United States that within 36 hours provided a major disaster declaration over a text. We had support from the President of the United States, Joe Biden, with 100% reimbursement, all the resources you could hope for, imagine, constant communication. I’d like to extend that to the president-elect. I don’t know what he’s referring to when he talks about the Delta smelt in reservoirs. The reservoirs are completely full, the state reservoirs here in Southern California. That mis- and disinformation I don’t think advantages or aids any of us. Responding to Donald Trump’s insults, we would spend another month. I’m very familiar with them. Every elected official that he disagrees with is very familiar with them.”

He’s desperate, grasping at straws. Deep down, he knows he’s finished politically, and to that, we should all shout: “Good Riddance”.
America does not need another vile, demonic Botoxian from CA....

Faggotfaced weasel is lying.

Newsom pre-emptively started this whole mess years ago.

FJB flew in for a photo op and give away some parks or some sort of things

Mandatory closure of airspaces to all planes.

Needed waterbombers and copters were grounded

Thanks, again, FJB

This is how I see it: You (newscum) are getting an ass chewing from the boss. If I performed so poorly in my job I'd get an ass chewing too. Then likely I'd get fired. And that is a standard we need to hold these awful politicians to. They all need a good ass chewing as starters.

I think that's exactly what's going on with Newsom.

He thought he was invincible in CA. Now he knows differently.

Newsom and the media are complaining that Trump is “politicizing” the event by not showing up. When he does, they’ll complain that he’s politicizing the event by showing up. It’s a stupid, transparent swindle.

I saw a recently dated video, and it showed an empty reservoir. Is he misdirecting about resevoirs in parts of CA that can't be used in the LA area, or is he just lying as he did with that fake phone call?

Trump is staying away while this greaseball twists in the wind.

Don’t take the bait.

This sociopath just started soliciting political donations because of the LA fire disaster, as if he wasn’t primarily responsible and needs to come in and save the day.

Here we go - its Trump’s fault. Newscum is blameless and would be a great President of the local book club.
