AdvertisementAdvertisementFormer President Donald Trump revealed an unusual plan to stop wildfires from raging in California. Trump has previously falsely claimed that California wildfires were sparked by trees that "explode," and he has long subscribed to the theory that wildfires could be prevented if forests were cleared of dead trees and debris. In 2018, Trump suggested raking leaves on forest floors could help prevent fires. Trump did not provide further details about his damp forests plan, but he said California Governor Gavin Newsom would probably roadblock him.
