Sen. Padilla: Trump Is Going to See the Need for ‘All Hands on Deck’ in Calif. Wildfires Recovery

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
BLITZER: “In these kinds of disaster situations, almost always the states and the local governments don‘t have the billions and billions of dollars that the federal government has to try to rebuild.”
PADILLA: “Look, what President Trump is going to see is that this isn‘t just another fire. The scale of it, I mean, three times the size of Manhattan, he‘ll have that perspective. But the level, the intensity of the heat, the homes that have burned, other structures that have burned, he‘s going to see what looks like a war zone. He made reference to a bomb, but the immense areas that‘s been impacted before individuals can rebuild, before business owners can rebuild, we need roads. We need water lines and gas lines and power lines and all the core infrastructure cleaned and replaced before the rebuilding begins. So it‘s going to be all hands on deck.”
