During a visit to Washington, California Governor Gavin Newsom expressed confidence in securing support from Republican lawmakers for wildfire aid in Southern California, stating that President Trump is likely to do the right thing. Newsom acknowledged the complex nature of their relationship, despite past criticisms from Trump. The president's support, however, may come with demands for stricter immigration enforcement and tougher voter ID laws. Newsom emphasized their history of effective collaboration during crises, highlighting their shared goal of addressing wildfire recovery efforts.
Trump and Republican leaders are talking about attaching conditions to the aid. Among the potential conditions mentioned are stricter immigration enforcement and requiring tougher voter ID laws.
Though the president has routinely derided the governor, referring to him as 'Newscum,' the governor said he's found Trump a willing partner in times of crisis.
