US President Donald Trump is scheduled to visit California on Monday. He will get brief from the officials on the devastation brought by the wildfires. The visit of President Trump to the Golden State will follow 2-days of campaigning in Nevada, where his team has planned 2 major rallies. The deputy press secretary of White House, Judd Deere announced the planned visit of Trump. Point to be noted that at least 20 people have been killed in California as thousands of firefighters struggled to contain the blazes. Moreover, The Los Angeles Times reported that tens of thousands of structures have been destroyed and at least 3.1 million acres have burned.

The Governor of California, Gavin Newsom toured the areas hardest hit by the fires. He also blamed climate change and vowed to redouble efforts to de-carbonize the economy. He said, “The debate is over around climate change. Just come to the state of California, observe it with your own eyes”. It is noteworthy that the Washington and Oregon States have also been battling wildfires. President Trump remained largely silent on the wildfires until Friday night when he commended the 28,000+ Firefighters and other First Responders who are battling wildfires across the west coast.

The Trump administration has issued a major disaster declaration that has provided support for local governments and emergency relief for evacuees and victims. There are various images coming out of California showing ominous smoke-filled skies above the charred remains of forest areas and some homes. The State Officials have indicated that they are bracing for more casualties. The Governor of California also visited the North Complex Fire Zone on Friday. Newsom said, “We anticipated that the number (of deaths) may potentially go up as we get back into areas that have been ravaged by flame and obviously, smoke begins to clear”.
