The governor of California is under fire for posing with his hands inside his pocket during a photo op that took place, just a few moments after he declared a state of emergency.

As per reports from local media outlets, many were beyond stunned in terms of what was taking place and how irresponsible any lawmaker could behave in such an alarming incident.

Gavin Newsom was seen sharing a video of himself taking rounds of surveillance to see how the wildfires are being tackled as shocking reports spoke about them ravaging the entire LA area.

The Democrat explained more details about how he was on the ground at the time. But not many were happy to hear what he had to say.

The state is facing an alarming situation with water supplies being consumed and a possible drought situation on the cards.

Critics felt that the photo-op of him smiling and putting his hands in his pockets was just uncalled for as two people had been killed, hundreds of structures burned down, and others feared a loss of life if not evacuated on time.

The wildfires are ravaging LA and many are pointing fingers at the governor for his terrifying management of the forest region which many experts believe has resulted in so many parts of the city transforming into an apocalyptic scene from hell.
