Wildfires keep ravaging California, but it's not just the flames that are heating up. Politicians on both sides are rushing to react. Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom tackles the recovery effort while answering hard questions about state readiness. Meanwhile, President-elect Donald Trump is quick to blame Democrats, unlike President Joe Biden's approach. Their actions now will shape their political fate, as past disasters have done for others. The political landscape is hotter than the blazing fires.

This crisis isn't just about putting out fires—it's about who can keep cool under pressure. The public watching closely, ready to praise or critique based on how leaders handle this. It's a test of leadership, and both sides know it. Past disasters have made or broken careers.

The state's leaders are in the spotlight, every move scrutinized. Newsom is trying to balance quick response with careful planning, a tough task. Trump, known for his swift tweets, is taking a different route. Then there's Joe Biden, working behind the scenes with a different approach. But who's doing it right? That's the million-dollar question. The public will decide based on who seems most capable.
