As much as I despise responding to your dumb ass I'd like to point out that yes, getting rid of dead fall and creating firebreaks is a tried and true way of reducing the damage caused by forest fires. One of the ways to stop a fire in its tracks is to take away its fuel. There are other ways to prevent forest fires but don't ask environmental groups why they have successfully fought against trimming tree branches around power lines in California.
You sarcastically smear Trump regarding his leadership in a crises. WTF is wrong with you? He calls for preventive measures to ameliorate damage done in fire season and you mock him because some political hack writer creates a piss poor article trying to defend the idiots in California? As usual, you offer this forum nothing more than dumbassery.
