Trump, Musk and MAGA douse California wildfires with conspiracies, hate and lies Opinion [View all]

(USA Today) While wildfires rage across Los Angeles, President-elect Donald Trump, weirdo presidential wingman Elon Musk and other disreputable characters in the MAGA extended universe are doing all they can to make things worse.

Like smart-ass school children, they’re leveraging an unfolding natural disaster as a chance to shout stupid nicknames at California’s governor, making up nonsense out of whole cloth and pointing fingers in whatever direction lunkhead conspiracy theorists tell them to point.

In other words, they’re behaving exactly as we should now expect MAGA folks to behave, with cruelty and opportunism first, and they're doing it less than two weeks before Trump starts running the country.
