President-elect Trump on California Wildfires

I'm California Mr President during the pandemic you often said that you didn't believe that you should bail out blue states that you believe were being this manage given your criticism of Governor Gavin Nome are you willing to work with him and do you believe that FAL Aid should be provided to California for as long as it takes well it's very sad because I've been trying to get Gavin Nome to allow water to come you'd have tremendous water up there they sent it out to the Pacific because they're trying to protect a tiny little fish which is in other areas by the way called the smelt and for the sake of a smelt they have no water they had no water in the fire hydrants today in Los Angeles it was a terrible thing and we're going to get that done it's going to finally be done I got it done from the federal side and uh he didn't want to sign it but it's not going to happen again like that there's no reason can you imagine you have Farmers that don't have any water in California they have plenty of water they don't have a drought they send it out to the Pacific and it's crazy so what's happening in California is a true tragedy I know those areas very well many friends living in those houses that is a true tragedy nobody ever thought I mean virtually Beverly Hills and areas around Beverly Hills are being decimated uh the biggest homes some of the most valuable homes in the world are are just destroyed I don't even know you know the you talk about a tax base if those people leave you're going to lose half your tax base of of California this is a true tragedy and it's a mistake of the governor and you could say the administration they don't have any water they didn't have have water in the fire hydrants they don't have water and yet they have the water comes from you know where up north and it comes down at levels they give millions and millions of barrels and of of gallons of water that they have and they send it out into the Pacific for the Pacific it's like a drop it's nothing but for California we take care of the whole state so what's happened is a tragedy and the governor has not done a good job with that being said I got along well with him when he was governor we work together very well and we would work together I guess it looks like we're going to be the one having to rebuild it but what happened there I don't think there's anything that I've ever seen quite like it and the insurance companies are going to have a big problem cuz you're talking about big big dollars
