Donald Trump accuses California governor of acting 'like a child'

US President Donald Trump hits out at the governor of California, saying he's "like a child" and needs to deal with the forest fires better.

In the latest part of the spat between the two, Mr Trump said that the state has become "a mess" and suggests that Speaker Nancy Pelosi go back and "take care of it".

Previously Mr Trump tweeted saying California governor Gavin Newsom has done a "terrible job of forest management".

He said the governor comes to the federal government for help every year when fires rage.

Mr Newsom replied with a tweet of his own: "You don't believe in climate change.

You are excused from this conversation."
