Los Angeles fire; Abandoned infrastructure
An expert on American issues says, “While America itself is facing problems in the issue of infrastructure, in the last few years, we have seen the aid of the United States to the Zionist regime in the war in Gaza and also in Ukraine, and practically the issue of infrastructure and its improveme was somehow abandoned.”
According to RCO News Agency, a massive fire that started on Tuesday in the city of Los Angeles, located in the state of California, left at least 16 dead and forced tens of thousands of people to evacuate their homes. A heinous incide that America has not yet been able to coain, and at the same time, it has left a huge financial loss, from the burning of houses and luxury cars of people and Hollywood actors to the looting of their property.
With the spread of the fire in the state of California and the formation of conditions that many have called “apocalyptic”, the manageme crisis of the curre American governme has been well “highlighted” in the manageme of crises in this coury.
According to the Los Angeles Fire Departme, this fire has demonstrated the unpreparedness of this institution, which has been “paralyzed” by the curre American governme, to deal with critical situations.

America has faced it as Donald Trump warned in this connection in 2016 when he was a candidate for the first time in the American elections and some American politicians including Mr. “Bernie Sanders” in articles and The books they have written have meioned the weak infrastructure in this coury.
Shafi’i stressed: While America itself is facing problems in the issue of infrastructure, in the last few years, we have witnessed the aid of the United States to the Zionist regime in the Gaza war and also to Ukraine, and practically the issue of infrastructure and its improveme was somehow abandoned.

Trump’s heroization of the crisis in Los Angeles for his own benefit
This expert on American issues coinued by stating that “there has been a lack of atteion to the strengthening of infrastructure during the rule of the 2 Republican and Democratic parties and this is not the weakness of one party in America” and coinued: Donald Trump, the preside-elect of the United States, has recely tried to avoid this To make the most of the weakness and problem that has arisen for his political exploitation and in fact question the function of the democrats in a way.
Shafi’i stated that “in fact, the American people see that this fire has occurred and the democratic governme has not been very successful in managing it” and added: As meioned, Trump has also tried to use this situation to his advaage with his coroversial commes. All in all, the American political environme is currely in Trump’s favor, and he will probably try to prese himself as the hero of managing this crisis and rebuilding this region, considering taking over the responsibility of the White House in the coming days.
