Trump's FEMA is doing a horrible job with the wildfires

It is now mass mainly FEMA's job to contain the California wildfires, but reports cite continuing loss of property and missing people.
Republicans have contributed to these tragedies by opposing measures to curb global warming. The last they can do is put out the fires and they can't even do that.

Never has been. They provide disaster assistance after the disaster has passed.
