Donald Trump, who is famous for his ridiculous statements, gave a surprising reason for the forest fires in the state of California.
According to the American broadcasting company, the newly elected President Donald Trump blamed California Governor Newsom for the forest fires.
In his statement, the newly elected President Donald Trump said that the California Governor tried to save a fish instead of caring about the people of California.
