“Governor Jerry Brown must allow the Free Flow of the vast amounts of water coming from the North and foolishly being diverted into the Pacific Ocean. Can be used for fires, farming and everything else. Think of California with plenty of Water - Nice! Fast Federal govt. approvals.”

As unstoppable fires burn his country, kill citizens, and force thousands from their burning homes, he writes these disgusting tweets - and actually includes "Nice!"? He is an absolutely revolting man.

President Donald Trump raised eyebrows by tweeting about the wildfires inaccurately

It's a remarkable skill to be able to be willfully ignorant about so many things with such regularity. A man with a fork in a world of spoons. Do everyone a favour chump, stick to burgers & pep rallies, leave the clever stuff to everyone else.

A river allowed to follow its natural course to the ocean is not diverted - it's called a river. And it does not belong to humans; we share it with many species.

And Trump says this as he prepares to battle California on its aggressive CAFE standards. Chutzpa.

He’s pretty much right. California has always been an environmental loose canon. It is indeed sad to see my home state burn up like that, but the California politicians once again with their radical policies have destroyed one of the most prestine states in the Union.

I think it’s revolting that these environmentalists worry more about a tiny fish or turtle that takes more priority over farmers. I remember when California was green and now it’s all brown. It doesn’t matter what you do, the environmentalists have completely dried out the place more and more of its natural resources. Thank God, that nutjob Brown will be out of office soon. California needs true leadership and not some partisan political hack. I weep for California.

Really? Are they also responsible for the heatwave in Japan?

The wildfires are "extremely fast, extremely aggressive, extremely dangerous," said Scott McLean, a deputy chief with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.

They are as close to hell as anyone can get as they fighting those fires. It is sad that lives have been lost, but they keep going back to fight the fire.

The loss of the great grandmother and her two great grandchildren sticks in my mind the most.

Nothing new about DT tweeting inaccurately.

Environmentalists don’t understand farmers and farm life.

Trump is going to give tax money to farmers and increasing the government debt.

This is a yearly occurrence and overwhelmingly pinpointed to humans as the catalyst year after year.

Trump's would be water goes to farmers, not fires.
