President Donald Trump goes off the rails when asked about California wildfires
President Donald Trump went off the rails when asked about California wildfires during his first full day in office. He claims city officials are diverting "limitless" water to the ocean through a "massive valve."
This guys a massive regard. Sad that I moved to lemmy because mods on reddit were oversensitive but the same thing is here lmao
Wtf are you on about?
Oh I thought it was a typo at first.. I'm such a regard..
Insert Skinner meme
Is it me? No, it must be all the mods that are wrong
President Musk*
It's disrespectful to refer to him by his subordinates.
Trump said something incredibly stupid? Wow, that is news!
this is America.
a zombie state that doesn't realize it's already dead.
and nobody is willing to do what must be done to stop it.
Gotta cut off the head
The fish rots from the head. The status... is not quo.
He claimed Los Angeles limits residents to just 38 gallons of water a day, and referred to some mythical "valve" that could bring limitless water to L.A., but that officials instead diverted to the ocean.
"They have a valve, think of a sink but multiply it by many thousands of times the size of it, it's massive. And you turn it back toward Los Angeles. Why aren't they doing it? They either have a death wish, they're stupid or there's something else going on that we don't understand," Trump said.
Just turn the giant valve?! Why didn't I think of that!
Just use the weather control machine and make it rain duh! /$
I don't know if I can handle 4 more years of this.
Block social media that centers on him or politics. Find like minded people. Do things you love.
We will all endure.
or there's something else going on that
weI don't understand," Trump said.He was so close to realization.
Maybe hes thinking of the fact that ~80% of California's water goes to irrigation for crops instead of to communities.
Tbf, the crops come to our communities. We love our fresh California produce. It sparks joy.
And the Palisades had enough water to drink and fill pools and grow landscape plants, and several people were hosing down their homes (a few died with hose in hand because the fire was way too strong for that and they should have evacuated but a lot of the rest of us made stupid decisions in the moment that just didn't turn out as deadly.) but the real problem was that wind. They couldn't do airdrops, the conflagration was too powerful. There was a problem with the hydrants, but honestly even if they'd been fully functioning it's not clear if much more could have been saved. Altadena had plenty of water too, with working hydrants, but that maelstrom of fire was just crazy, man.
They either have a death wish, they're stupid or there's something else
You know what they say. Everything that comes out of their mouths is either a confession or projection!
Stupid does apply here, just not in the way he thinks it does. Also, who is "they"? Is he just referring to liberals?
I hate “they”. Whenever someone at work says “they” I immediately ask “who?” and don’t get off of it until they actually name a person. Does wonders for stopping the random boogeyman.
Can’t go off the rails if you’ve never had rails
He's done a lot of rails at least
It’s not President Trump’s fault that LA sucks at raking their leaves.
The OP was hilarity, and then the idiots responding made me laugh out loud. Bravo.
Alright, then how about you go rake the leaves of the national forest and parks behind my house? You got this. Should be pretty easy from what you're saying.
So many people can’t sense sarcasm.
1000% my humor. Thank you
