Joe Biden called Donald Trump a “climate arsonist” on Monday, condemning the president’s reluctance to protect Americans “from the ravages of climate change.”
The Democratic presidential candidate used a speech in Delaware to denounce his opponent, whose visit to the scene of the California wildfires was widely ridiculed amid allegations that Democratic leaders on the West Coast allowed the trees to “explode.”
