President Donald Trump, who has criticized state and local leaders over what he calls faulty water-management policies that he says contributed to the region’s deadly wildfires, arrived in Los Angeles Friday.

President Trump surveyed destruction in Pacific Palisades by air and on foot during his visit to Los Angeles County on Friday afternoon, but he did not visit the ravaged community of Altadena.

After a tour of areas damaged by the California wildfires, the president sparred with local leaders and blamed them for a wide variety of issues affecting the disaster response.
