California is burning. Trump's response was wildly inaccurate and unhelpful.

The article discusses former President Donald Trump's reaction to the wildfires in California, which was described as both inaccurate and unhelpful.

Trump's comments were criticized for lacking empathy and for promoting misinformation, especially since his administration had previously rolled back environmental regulations that could have mitigated some of the conditions exacerbating these fires. His response was seen as an attempt to deflect responsibility and did not address the immediate needs or the broader systemic issues contributing to the crisis.
