After visiting areas of North Carolina on Friday that are still struggling after a devastating storm four months ago, President Trump then went to Los Angeles to tour the region hit by massive fires. After that, Trump had a meeting with local officials at a firehouse in Pacific Palisades.&nbsp;

First, California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who had previously promised he would "Trump-proof" his state, seemed happy to see the president arrive at LAX:

Trump toured the fire damage and then went to lead a roundtable Q &amp; A at a fire station which many local leaders attended.&nbsp;

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass was one of the people called out for bureaucratic delays, except when Trump pressed her the timetable quickly changed:&nbsp;

Trump got rounds of applause after delivering all of these reality checks.&nbsp;

Another local official who got called out was Democrat Brad Sherman:

It would be nice if California Democrats took some lessons from all of this and realized that their insane regulations had tragic real-world consequences. But they won't.&nbsp;
