Trump’s Latest Disaster: How He Flooded California to “Fight” Fire
Remember those devastating LA wildfires recently? While firefighters battled 100-mph infernos, Trump had a brilliant solution: “Just turn on the water.”
So what did he do when he got back in office? Ordered the release of billions of gallons from reservoirs 100 miles away from LA. That’s right – he flooded California’s Central Valley to fight fires in Los Angeles. It’s like trying to put out a fire in Miami by opening a fire hydrant in Atlanta.
The water? Completely wasted. Couldn’t even reach LA if it tried. There’s no infrastructure to move it there. California farmers watched in horror as their summer water supply vanished into a dry lake bed. They had to beg the Army Corps to stop before their entire season was destroyed.
But Trump got his optical victory lap. He even tweeted a photo of his successful operation – using a picture of a lake in Vermont. And guess what? His cultist supporters believed him.
While California’s farmland was being flooded for a publicity stunt, the real issue – why we’re having wildfires during rainy season – got ignored. Classic Trump: Create a crisis to “solve” a crisis, then brag about it on social media where only cognitively impaired maga could be conned per usual.
This isn’t politics. It’s dangerous theater performed by a man who’d flood a state and possibly destroy a season of crops to avoid admitting he was wrong.
And that Vermont lake photo? Chef’s kiss. Nothing says “I fixed California” quite like using stock photos from New England. Who fell for his tweet with a photo on the other side of the country from the disaster? His significantly cognitive impaired maga cultists. We are dealing with the brains of 5-year-old children in physical bodies that look like adults.
The 75% of the country who is not part of maga needs to show up next primary season and nominate someone who passionately rejects all corporate money. If we wait til the general election to vote then it’s too late because by then we will have another two pre-approved and pre-selected corporate backed candidates. Our only power is to vote in the primary season. That’s the only way we win against the dangerous cognitive impaired maga cult.
