WATCH: Trump holds press conference after touring Los Angeles wildfire damage

^{Published on 2025-01-25 12:40:45 - PBS}

In fire-ravaged California, the state's Democratic leaders pressed Trump for federal assistance that he's threatened to hold up, some setting aside their past differences to shower him with praise.

In a press conference following his tour of the wildfire damage in Los Angeles, former President Donald Trump discussed the devastation caused by the fires, emphasizing the need for better forest management to prevent such disasters. He praised the efforts of firefighters and first responders, and highlighted the importance of clearing dry brush and dead trees to mitigate future risks. Trump also touched on his administration's environmental policies, defending his record on deregulation and suggesting that these policies could help in managing natural resources more effectively. Additionally, he fielded questions on various political topics, including his views on current administration policies, his potential run in the 2024 election, and his ongoing legal challenges, although he kept the focus primarily on the immediate issue of the wildfires and recovery efforts.
