Gavin Newsom invited Donald Trump to California. One must wonder if President Trump will get the same glorious reception that President Xi received. Trump will help California, no matter what he thinks of Newsom, but will likely have some demands about water and forests.
A nervous Gavin Newsom will conduct an investigation, but he should have known what could happen, or his employees should have known since they knew in 1959. The 1962 documentary, near the end, explains the problem.
Go to 23:35 for the conclusion if you are in a hurry. The entire video is worth watching.
NEW: I am calling for an independent investigation into the loss of water pressure to local fire hydrants and the reported unavailability of water supplies from the Santa Ynez Reservoir.
We need answers to ensure this does not happen again and we have every resource available to… pic.twitter.com/R0vq0wwZph

They knew about the water problem and the hydrant problem 63-66 years ago. They also knew what had to be addressed. The fire department in 1962 seemed to handle it better.

California has celebrity politics.
Rather than competence, celebrity status prevails.
California has become a nonfunctional state.
As Elon Musk has said, it’s impossible to complete any large scale project in California, perhaps America as a whole due to conflicting regulations.
California has spent billions on a high speed rail network from, LA to San Francisco, but even after billions and years, relatively little has been completed.
California may be a largely corrupted state, spending billions, but relatively little accomplished while billions seem to disappear into the regulatory state.
decades ago the city and county were tasked with building around seven new reservoirs. Money was even set aside. Nothing was done.
Through both Democrat and Republican governors they did nothing. They were more concerned with following the dictates of the UN and their communist or corporate masters. I have no doubt the pendulum will swing red again but will anything be done to prevent things like this in the future?
Remember Southern California is not the only part of that state to burn like the fires of hell. It’s proven over and over again that when foresters fail and arsonists prevail the people of California lose. This has nothing to do with Climate Change.
