Gov. Gavin Newsom, the Democratic governor of California, has tried to cooperate with President Trump as he seeks federal aid for wildfire relief.

The White House confirmed that President Trump, who has repeatedly threatened to impose an array of conditions for federal wildfire assistance, will meet with California's governor.

Governor Gavin Newsom is heading to Washington, D.C., to meet with the Trump administration in the aftermath of Southern California's deadly and destructive wildfires, while the president has threatened to investigate the state's high-speed rail project.

Gov. Gavin Newsom left California to attend meetings in Washington with President Trump, administration officials and members of Congress about federal aid to support wildfire recovery in Los Angeles.

The big question is whether Newsom will sit down with President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly threatened to condition aid for Los Angeles.
