It won't be. Hawaii is A) 2400 miles from the west coast of the mainland, and B) a blue state. 

Texas or Florida would have to be on fire for them to care.

Even then, "fires happen sometimes" seems to be the prevailing narrative from the right. 

Just saw an article today about fires in Greece and how affected people blame everything except global warming. It was even insulting to them to suggest the possibility. A bit disheartening, really.

Of course, fires do happen and the obvious thermodynamical effect of increased temperatures is increased rainfall, but some places *will* get drier, even if only in relative terms (evaporation increases more than rainfall).
