This is so deserving of a rant! It isnt complicated unless your state is run by corrupt idiots like Enslee and Newsum who care more about stealing taxes from disasters than premptively correcting.

Why have west coast governors not prioritized and actually created ways to fight and spend to effectively fight wildfires? Why not spend developing immediate response "SWAT" fire fighting teams with an overwhelming capability to extinguish wild fires immediately? We need better technolgy and commitment to locate and ID fires. Combine volunteers, professionals with needed drone technology and local volunteers. We need to exstinguish them in the bud.

They lack real thinkers and doers in such leadership roles, but not shortage of politicians wrapped in destructive divisive identity politics. These governors and down office leaders need to be actual doers not political ideologues whose sole obsession is liberalism or party politics. They see their primary role as political schemers not doers. They always want public money made accessible to their cronies.

So many possible improvements needed but their leaders obsession is all leftwing politics and feeding crooks in government.

Stay tuned for more. Most every Democrat political class leader is so typical in their ineffective priorities. We have one such west coast liberal now running for President.

Typical Democrats always hating and frivolously fighting average others apparently of their own ilk, instead of actually working to discuss and be productive.

REPLY to 17: No you can't.

One candidate is a lawless convicted felon who has absolutely no decency and who also vows to undermine our democracy start mass deportations and turn us into a fascist dictatorship.

The other is a very decent person versed in the law and who vows to defend democracy and help immigrants and restore our confidence in ourselves from the middle class out.

The choice couldn't be clearer.

Sorry if this offends because I don't mean it like that or like "illegallyyouaredead" typically does. But how the hxll does one reply to obvious stupidity and to those who think media brainwashing and listening to Hollywood celebrity simpletons is what makes intellect? It used to be this discussion forum had intellect. People coming here need to make our country nicer and safer than the country they came from, and if they wont or can't most of us citizens want mass deportations and deserve it..

Is it possible to edit yet? If not make my #48 a reply to #44 not 17.

I get sick of hearing her/him (LL) absurd claim that "Robson" is a Russian Bot and absurdly since 2006. Like many say about Democrats they always project their own foolishness exactly what they claim about others.

Please consider that the single factor leading to costly natural disasters and slow response comes down to incurious lazy Democrat leadership as state governors and in White House who play politics instead of DOING. Compare west coast governors with DESANTIS in Florida.

Voting Republican is mostly about Quality of Life and your personal safety not politics.

Compare posters on here who actually offer solutions vs those who perpetually waste our time with vulgarities and made up inbred level Robo absurdities.

Come on folks start thinking and giving us actual suggestions for improvement instead of wasting our time with continous hate and nothingness.

73 WOW WOW. Hans must be pretending to be Biden and Kamala. Not a good look. See a good doctor as you still might be able to get that same plagiaristic dna malformation as Biden and Kamala repaired.

In the old days the honest msm kept them out of White House to save our reputation.

I hate to break it to you but this is highly illustrative of how some posters no longer have the mental accuity to contribute to a discussion forum. Go back to a 6th grade writing ethics class for a semester.
