Donald Trump will visit the Los Angeles area to see the wildfire devastation, in what will mark his first official trip after his Monday inauguration, according to Saturday media reports.
Trump will arrive late next week, according to The Hill, which cites sources who spoke with its sister company NewsNation. The 47th president will be sworn in Monday in the Capitol Rotunda, a change from the traditional spot in front of the Capitol because of extreme cold temperatures in the forecast.
Underlying the smoke an ash in the air, there will be spice: The President-elect has been fiercely critical of California’s leaders – with whom he will surely meet – over their response to the fires.
