Trump talked about the deadly wildfires in Maui that killed dozens of people in a TruthSocial video on Monday.
Trump said, “I would like to send my condolences and warmest regards to the people of Hawaii, and especially to all of those who have been so severely and irreparably hurt by the tragedy of the wildfires in Maui, something that has rarely happened anywhere, at any time.”
“The number of deaths from this terrible event will be much higher than anyone thought, now that houses, cars, and other places are being checked,” Trump said. “The sad thing is that it should never have happened.”
Trump also criticized the Democratic governor of Hawaii, Josh Green, for how he handled the deadly fire. He did this before criticizing Biden’s “no comment” answer.
