I thought it was because someone forgot to rake?

Raking absolutely is a part of preventing fires, it’s called a fire line.

You forgot the explosion part

As much as I hate to defend this blithering idiot, I believe what he was trying to say is after a tree falls, it dries out and becomes fuel for wildfires.

Edit, source: I’ve worked for several blithering idiots and I’ve developed some skill at translating their gibberish into conherent communication.

The lack of punctuation doesn’t help. whoever transcribed this this kinda missed that.

Trees fall down. After a short period of time, 18 months, they (the fallen trees) dry out.

It’s just funny the way he can’t get out a coherent thought.

If you ask me trump’s been senile for a long ass time, he just hides it better with energy/gusto.

And using that to justify increased logging, which is cutting down live trees. It’s still nonsense.

Yes, targeted logging can prevent catastrophic wildfires.

“Also, leaves — when you have years of leaves — dried leaves — on the ground, it just sets it up. It’s really a fuel for a fire. So they have to do something about it.”

And apparently leafs aren’t bio-degradable and they just sit there and pile up until they catch fire.

Sometimes I forget how fucking monumentally stupid he is. He has the mind of a god damn child because he never grew up.

Most kids know that leaves decompose. Don’t give him an out like that, he had every opportunity over his 70+ years to improve as a human and has failed at every turn. If you dehydrated his body and ground him to dust, then reduced that dust to its component elements, you’d probably have to sell them at a discount after disclosing their origin. He is, in my opinion, worth less than the sum of his parts.

This is TRUE. I am an ecologist. We need to remove trees, actively do prescribed burns, to prevent catastrophic fires. I know you hate Trump (I do too), but this is absolutely correct. It’s called fuel load.
