‘True tragedy’: Donald Trump criticises California’s mismanagement of water supply

US President-elect Donald Trump has criticised California’s mismanagement of water supply in the lead-up to the fires. “This is a true tragedy and it’s a mistake of the governor and you could say the administration, they have no water,” Mr Trump said. An estimated 1,000 properties have been lost to the wildfire and over 100,000 people are under evacuation orders, according to authorities.
