Trump: "I always liked Gavin. I have a good relationship with him. I just got him a lot of water. I sent in people to open up that water. We just got him a lot of water. If they would've had that water and done what I said to do, they wouldn't have had the fires in Los Angeles."

What Trump means to say here is that he fucked over farmers in Central California by releasing the water they will need for their crops soon. None of which could’ve ever reached Los Angeles unless there were some sort of magical helicopter. In short, he’s a delusional idiot.

Oh my god, he really believes this (a) worked (it didn’t and never would have) and (b) he was doing a really good thing (that would have flooded towns and crops). An epic disaster of stupidity was avoided at at the very last minute because regular people who aren’t idiots won.

Even more ironic is the lack of bottleneck. When a house burns down, what happens to all of the plumbing that is under pressure? The heat melts all the connections and the pipes flow open, reducing water pressure in the system upstream Turn off the water at the curb when you evacuate

This seems like one of the most obviously stupid things he has done. Is there some explanation in Trump world that makes the California water thing make sense to them, or do they just block the whole thing out. I’ve searched, but haven’t found anything.

For Canadians just tuning into this particular episode of "The Madness of President Trump": California has always had a massive political fight over water use: Farmers want to divert as much water as possible to farms; fishermen would prefer that more of the water flow downriver to boost salmon /1

stocks. Republicans have historically backed the farmers in this. Earlier this year during the LA fires, there were so many fires over so much of LA that the hydrant pump system just couldn't keep up, leaving some fireplugs dry. Trump is an idiot, so he confused these two issues in his mind. /2

So to "help" with the dry hydrants in LA, he ordered water diverted into rivers heading to central valley farmland. Which, thanks to winter storms, was already saturated with water. Damned fool nearly drowned his own voters before the Corps of Engineers managed to end the diversion. /3

Since Trump can never, ever be wrong (in his own mind), he's still bragging about that time he nearly washed away a bunch of Republican farmers who live hundreds of miles from Los Angeles. /final

Can you imagine if this meeting had happened in Ottawa and Carney had treated Trump as he was treated? How can Americans stand this endless repetitive monologue day after day. It can't be good for their sanity.

Trump: "I always liked Gavin. I have a good relationship with him. I just got him a lot of water. I sent in people to open up that water. We just got him a lot of water. If they would've had that water and done what I said to do, they wouldn't have had the fires in Los Angeles."

That piece of shit still spewing his water lies. I really can't believe how he is allowed to get away with it. Where are the legit reporters to call him out? They should all immediately call him a liar to his face. Not a single drop of water has entered the LA basin because of anything Trump did.

You sent the water to where it wasn't even needed Donald Trump! It didn't go anywhere near the fires and wasn't even needed there. You just wasted a whole bunch of scare water in a vain attempt to make yourself look good! You are the most ignorant, clueless motherf**ker that ever walked the earth!

Let’s ask the farmers what they thought of that? And did no one tell him that water never did/never would make it LA? These people will all have a special place in Hell for allowing this man to do what he’s done.

CNN: 2.2 billion gallons of water flowed out of CA reservoirs because of Trump’s order to open dams "There are 2 major problems, water experts said: The newly released water will not flow to Los Angeles & it is being wasted by being released during the wet winter season" www.cnn.com/2025/02/03/c...

He still believes his own simpleton ideas of a non-existent, giant faucet after he ordered the corps of engineers to flush out farmers' water for the summer. Prez-Pope-Mob guy is on a self-talk loop of lies

Narrator voiceover: Trump broke multiple laws and regulations to send the water downstream, to systems that couldn't handle it, and it flowed into the ocean. That water will be sorely missed by farmers (who voted for him!) during the long hot rainless California summer.

Will the NYT devote days long coverage speculating on his mental abilities. There are senile folks who act confused, like Biden did, and then there are those who act angry and say crazy shit, like this idiot.
