Just one day after Trump tweeted, by pointing fingers and laying blame, there are now at least 56 deaths, and many more missing.

Authorities searching through the blackened aftermath of California's deadliest wildfire Wednesday released the names of some 130 people who are unaccounted, including many in their 80s and 90s, and dozens more could still be unaccounted for. Officials in Northern California said Tuesday that search crews had found six more bodies, bringing the death toll from the so-called Camp Fire to 56 and the statewide total to 59.
Any president who cannot be empathetic during a natural disaster, is not qualified to be president, and deserves no votes from thoughtful Americans.
Horrible, simply horrible.
Please, please let the winds die and the rain fall in Southern California.
Out here we've been getting too much rain. Wish there were a way we could send some of it out west. California needs it.
56 known dead is bad. 130 missing, is even worse.
Thanks for sharing this. I'm glad other's are doing this important, but macabre task; because it's not something I would relish doing ...The thing is, the '56' have been identified so that number is official. There are many more bodies that they have, but until they are identified and all potential parts are put together with other parts from the same person, they are not considered official casualties from the event. The exceptions for that are transportation accidents like place crashes where they have a known number on a manifest and they can determine the living from the non-living. Even then, they may only give out a number without any details. Once they have people identified, they will add them to the number.
I've been on a number of these incidents where we had many more bodies in our possession than the official count acknowledged.

You know, I live in an area that doesn't have hurricanes, doesn't have forest fires, doesn't have flooding, doesn't have avalanches, and rarely has tornados. I'm starting to appreciate it a bit more!It's horrific.
Those firefighters and forestmen out there right now, are the greatest public servants there are. We take for granted how lucky we are to have them.

The scene in Paradise, CA must have been apocalyptic.
People driving out of town, a vehicle stall on the road, traffic backs up, and everyone dies in their cars.
I read the fires were so hot some cars melted.
I can't wrap my head around the horrors some of them experienced before they perished.
Please, everyone, can we not POLITICIZE this on DP?
That would be immoral.
Ban fires, or at least require a background check.
It's horrific.

These kind of fires are brutal and have no mercy - as it has demonstrated. You have to have lots of courage to take them on, no matter how many fires you've fought before.First responders should be paid a LOT more than they currently are. Nurses, doctors, police, firefighters, paramedics etc are REAL HEROES.
This is among the most sociopathic and vomit inducing comments I've read on the internet.Ban fires, or at least require a background check.

PG&E stock is down to $25/share, maybe on the way to Zero.....spending the last few years consumed with Green Energy Fantasies like the Cali Politicians instead of concentrating on the basics such as not starting fires might have been a very bad idea.
