Trump’s comment about raking to prevent wildfires gets lambasted by Finns
Donald Trump's comment about raking leaves has left some Finns scratching their heads.
It comes after a visit to the fire-ravaged Paradise in California on Saturday, where Trump suggested people could be cleaning up leaves to prevent blazes.
SEE ALSO: When will this terrible wildfire season in California end?"You look at other countries where they do it differently and it’s a whole different story. I was with the President of Finland and he said we are a forest nation. He called it a forest nation," Trump told reporters.
"And they spend a lot of time on raking and cleaning and doing things, and they don't have any problem."
Since that comment, Finland's President said he doesn't even recall having that conversation, while others have pointed out the differences between the California and Finland, the latter of which has a colder climate, and trees which are less prone to catching fire.
That, and Finns don't rake forests, only their parks and yards. Trump may have confused raking with the practice of thinning, where trees are selectively cut down to reduce the fire risk, according to the Finnish Forest Association's Heikki Savolainen, who spoke to Ilta-Sanomat.
Nevertheless, Trump was trolled with pictures of rakes, and pictures of Finns raking.
