They have now been smacked — hard! — but they are too far gone, hopeless. They will never admit that their entire belief system was built upon lies. They will double down once again and blame all their woes on “climate change” caused by Trump, and by extension, his voters.

It’s sad, but it’s entirely predictable.

When I first read about the LA fires I knew the claims that they were caused by "climate change" couldn't be far behind. The reports on the fires almost always referred to the Santa Ana winds that helped fan the flames. I wanted to learn more so I began searching the internet. Even in the Wikipedia article (of all places) I found references that should prevent the climate alarmists from making their unfounded claims (but won't).

Under the heading of Historical Impacts I found the following:

"The Santa Ana winds and the accompanying raging wildfires have been a part of the ecosystem of the Los Angeles Basin for over 5,000 years, dating back to the earliest habitation of the region by the Tongva and Tataviam peoples.[22]"

I don't think the Tongva or Tataviam peoples drove SUV's.

Well said! Exactly! And the reality is, given that these winds and dry conditions were WELL KNOWN, whether it was “climate change”, historic realities, or the boogie man, preparations should have been made to avoid such a calamity! Saying that “climate change” caused the fires is NO EXCUSE! In essence, it’s a self own. “We knew climate change could do this but we made no attempt to prevent it.” So, who is to blame, “climate change” or the officials who were tasked with preventing a disaster like this? The answer is clear.

Other than to care for the truly destitute, I don't want all of America to have to pay for the damage caused in large part by the Californians who continually vote for incompetent "leaders" who don't clear their forests, harness the water supply, or plan ahead for this type of recurring event.

The people of the state need to feel the ramifications of the choices they've made.

Additionally, fires in that area were much worse in the early 1900’s..

But if and when the crowd changes direction so will they. And then pretend it’s what they thought all along
