Gov. Gavin Newsom says President-elect Donald Trump has not responded to his invitation to tour damage in the fire-ravaged state. The president-elect will take the helm of the nation in less than two weeks, at a time when California requires a massive amount of federal aid for its fire recovery effort.

President Donald Trump will visit southern California this week amid looming winds and threats of new flames with tens of thousands of acres torched and buildings destroyed, according to reports.

President-elect Donald Trump, in perhaps his first official trip after being inaugurated Monday, will likely visit the Los Angeles area to survey wildfire damage late next week.
