Dressed like he's about to work in the yard or something.
President Trump: We're gonna get the problem fixed…it's like you got hit by a bomb, right?
Newsom: Yeah.
President Trump: Like you got hit by a bomb.
He recently mentioned nuclear when talking about the damage, so could it be that, or maybe some kind of firebombing?
No, he shook her hand.
Newsom apparently too busy to attend the briefing.
President Trump: This is already the most expensive natural disaster, they say, in American history.
President Trump: We're gonna waive, just about, essentially, waive all federal permits, we're gonna have you go very quickly. Because a federal permit can take ten years. We're not gonna do that. We don't want to take ten days. We're declaring this a National Emergency. By doing that, I can give you immediate permits. I'd ask that the local permitting process be the same.
President Trump ready to bring in workers tonight. Immediately.
President Trump: I'm signing an executive order to open up the pumps, and valves, in the north. We want to get that water pouring down as quickly as possible. Let hundreds of millions of gallons of water flow down into Southern California…unlimited water coming up from the Pacific Northwest, even coming up from parts of Canada. And it pours down, naturally, it has for a million years. It pours down; you'll never run out.
President Trump: When I was in Paradise [Camp Fire], I noticed that the trees; they were dark on the bottom, but they were absolutely living, and they lived, because they're soaking wet…I commented at the time, 'look at this, the house is burned down, and the tree is standing'.
Brad Sherman apparently not happy with President Trump wanting California to have Voter ID and water, in exchange for federal aid.
