Trump dismisses climate change role in fires, says Newsom needs to manage forest better
President Trump dismissed evidence pointed to by California's governor of climate change's role in the state's continuing wildfires during a Fox News interview on Sunday, blaming the problem once again on poor management of state forests.
The president spoke during the interview with radio host Mark Levin about his recent meeting with Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), with whom Trump said he has a disagreement over the cause of California's record-setting wildfires.
"Honestly, he's been very nice with the words which is good," Trump said of Newsom. "But I said you've got to manage this. It's a management thing. He said, 'no it's global warming.' I said, 'when the leaves build up and you have a floor of leaves and the trees fall down and you don't remove them because the environmentalists don't want you to touch the tree, within 18 months that tree becomes like a matchstick.'"
"I meet with foreign leaders of countries, and they have an expression, 'Sir, we are a forest nation.' But they say, 'we have trees that are far more explosive than the trees in California. We don't understand how a thing like that can happen.' You have to manage your forest," Trump continued.

The stupid is strong with Trump. Would someone explain to President "Shit for brains" most of the fires are on federal land?
