President Trump is thanking first responders and government officials for making quick calls to evacuate and saving a lot of lives as the Woolsey Fire was burning through Southern California. Trump toured some of the damage in Malibu, his second stop of the day. He examined what remains of Paradise after the Camp Fire nearly destroyed all of that 27-thousand resident mountain town in Northern California. Trump noted there have only been three confirmed deaths so far from the two fires burning in Los Angeles and Ventura counties. FEMA Administrator Brock Long said his agency is already working on ways to mitigate the increased mudslide risk because of the fires burning vegetation on hills.
