Why are the wildfires the democrats fault?
I’ve seen a lot of conservative politicians, conservative media, and conservatives on Reddit/Twitter/social media say the fires are the democrats fault. Or in response to the fire “you get what you vote for”. I’ve never once seen a reason why except for something about not creating a waterway from NorCal to SoCal (no one explains why that would help).
Edit: a lot of comments are essentially saying that democrats have had firm control of state and local gov and therefore natural disasters are their fault. Others have said broadly Forrest management either doesn’t exist (which is false) or wasn’t good enough, but don’t provide anything specific.
I’d love to hear specifics about what exactly they did or didnt do that places blame on them.
Edit 2: just saw this article that addresses a lot of the comments here, specifically: budget cuts, redirecting water from the north, and fire hydrants.
