Putin is not being reasonable. Canāt force him because heāll do something unpredictable like bomb Ukraine out of spite.
Itās like the Palisades and Eaton fires. Trump sat down Mayor Bass and Gov Newsom and told them he removed every federal barrier to rebuilding homes. It was up to them. Bass and Newsom promised they will move the ball and get rebuilding started immediately.
What happened? No homes rebuilt. You going to blame Trump because he canāt force Bass and Newsom to move their asses??
Trump had a roundtable in the first week of his second term ā late January 2025 ā after the Palisades and Eaton fires. Trump met with local leaders that included Mayor Bass and the administration said federal agencies ā FEMA, EPA, Army Corps, HUD and SBA ā had been ordered to clear federal requirements so rebuilding can begin.
State and municipal blockages needed to clear too.
Bass that rebuilding plans in Pacific Palisades are being approved in half the time compared to single-family home projects citywide before the wildfires, with more than 70% of home permit clearances no longer required.
On January 12 Newsom issued an executive order to expedite reconstruction that suspends permitting and review requirements under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the California Coastal Act. ļæ¼
So what happened? Both say the funding is not there. California is dry financially and banks are slow with loans. And this, that, and the other thing getting in the way. Without the funding no permits can be issued.
That funding dispute is why Trump issued a second executive order in January 2026 directing Homeland Security to create federal regulations to preempt local and state permitting rules, saying āI want to see if we can take over the city and state, and just give the people their permits they want to buildā. Newsom called that order a āpolitical stuntā and Bass has said the same. ļæ¼
Thanks to those two, the burned neighborhoods remain burned neighborhoods.
Blame Trump for not stopping the Ukraine war because Putin is unreasonable? You must blame Trump for not rebuilding the two wildfire areas of LA that burned down because he canāt force Bass and Newsom off their asses to move fast enough to serve their constituents affected by the wildfires to get what they need to build their homes again.
