52% : Later still on Thursday, Trump was out with yet another post, this one focussing more on Newsom.
38% : "Governor Gavin Newscum should immediately go to Northern California and open up the water main, and let the water flow into his dry, starving, burning State, instead of having it go out into the Pacific Ocean," Trump made clear.
38% : "It's ashes, and Gavin Newscum should resign," Trump posted about California, referring to it as "[o]ne of the best and most beautiful parts of the United States of America," also using that same insult for the governor.
22% : "Fire is spreading rapidly for 3 days -- ZERO CONTAINMENT," Trump lamented early on Thursday morning.
19% : Late on Wednesday night, also over Truth Social, Trump called on Newsom to resign.
17% : Just as he did in a post from Wednesday, Trump also lashed out against "Biden's FEMA" and a lack of funds.
11% : Trump has blamed Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, as well as highlighted problems with a lack of water for the fire hydrants.
9% : In this case, Trump blamed it on how the FEMA funding was "all wasted on the Green New Scam!"As Matt's been covering, Bass wasn't even in Los Angeles.
