Donald Trump overnight called for California Governor Gavin Newsom to resign, attacking the Democratic politician as fires destroy the southern part of the Golden state.
Trump revived his ongoing feud with Newsom, who replied to Trump's attack by suggesting he wouldn't stoop to insults amid a state emergency.
For Trump's part, the President-elect took to his own social media site, Truth Social, at almost midnight Eastern. He employed an old nickname he has used for the liberal governor.

"One of the best and most beautiful parts of the United States of America is burning down to the ground," Trump wrote. "It’s ashes, and Gavin Newscum should resign."
He then added, "This is all his fault!!!"
