Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) said Friday that President Trump invited him and California’s other Democratic senator, Alex Padilla, on a visit to California amid the wildfires ravaging in Los Angeles — an offer Schiff said he turned down only because the Senate is voting on high-profile Trump nominees.

“The senator regrets not being able to join President Trump in Los Angeles due to the Senate vote schedule,” said Edgar Rodriguez. “He welcomes the president’s support for federal disaster aid to assist the thousands of families and businesses impacted by these devastating fires.”

The president excluded Gov. Newsom from plans for his visit to fire-ravaged Los Angeles today, but the governor showed up on the tarmac anyway, and the two said they would cooperate. Trump’s growing list of demands — and threats to block federal aid — won’t make that easy.

President Trump landed in Los Angeles Friday afternoon to tour damage from the devastating Palisades Fire, one of two deadly wildfires fires this month, greeting Gov. Gavin Newsom who was waiting at the bottom of the steps to Air Force One.

The president has had harsh words for state and local leaders in California amid the deadly blazes. He recently suggested that federal aid could come with strings.
