The wildfires ravaging the Los Angeles area are terrifying and horrific. So, it makes sense that Donald Trump has used this unfolding tragedy to try and score political points by calling for California governer Gavin Newsom<\/a><\/strong> to resign.<\/p>\n

There really are no words to describe how shameless the sexual assaulter and former Apprentice <\/em>host is being with these highly politicized calls. But, then again, being fantastically callous and inappropriate is par for the course with Trump.<\/p>\n

His supporters have, predictably, jumped on the bandwagon. Also in typical MAGA style, they seem to be unaware of how hypocritical they’re being (or, just as likely, they’re doing it on purpose).<\/p>\n

There are a few layers to this shameless inconsistency. First and foremost, there’s the indisputable fact that the ferocity and strange timing of these fires are related to climate change<\/a>. The topic, which is contentious despite the vast majority of scientific evidence pointing towards its veracity, is a hot one across the U.S, with conservatives tending to downplay its significance, or even outright deny it.<\/p>\n

Aggrivating factors, like pollution, are also encouraged by Republican policies backed by Trump, such as scrambling for more oil and gas to be pulled out of the ground and burned<\/a> so that some very rich people can get even more money they won’t live long enough to spend.<\/p>\n

There’s also the fact that plenty of natural disasters have occurred in red states, run by Republican politicians. Recently, Florida was ravaged by hurricanes, and there were no calls from Trump for Ron De Santis to resign.<\/p>\n

Should Ron DeSantis resign too because hurricanes have ravaged Florida under his watch?<\/p>\n
