Progressive critics were left shaking their heads this week as Republican U.S. President-elect Donald Trump and his MAGA allies absurdly blamed the Los Angeles County wildfires on everything from an ichthyophile governor to diversity policies—while ignoring what experts say is the true cause of the deadly infernos.

The article from MSN discusses former President Donald Trump's comments on the wildfires in California, where he attributed the fires to poor forest management and suggested that water should be dumped from the sky to prevent them. Critics, including environmental experts and political figures, have labeled his statements as misleading and filled with disinformation. They argue that Trump's understanding of the situation is flawed, as wildfires in California are influenced by a complex mix of factors including climate change, which leads to hotter, drier conditions, and not just forest management. Furthermore, his suggestion to drop water from the sky oversimplifies the issue, ignoring the scale and nature of wildfires. The article highlights that while forest management can play a role, Trump's portrayal of the situation as solely a management issue is criticized for ignoring broader environmental and climate-related causes.
