I still find it absolutely wild that the president of the US has this much power, that the president can be an unqualified, incompetent drooling fucking moron and they are allowed to veto sensible knowledgeable people and do dangerous, stupid things like control the dumping of reservoirs.
WTF is wrong with America? In my country we have a parliamentary democracy and a civil service of qualified, intelligent people. We don’t allow one total fucking imbecile to ride roughshod over everything and ruin anything they like. US congress is like some useless appendix right now when it should be in charge of making these decisions.
If you want a starting point on wtf is wrong, start at Watergate and follow the policies completely influenced by greed, then connect to Citizen’s United, and you’ll have a pretty good idea. The US had a thing called “checks and balances” built into the foundation of the constitution, but that was all eroded away when congress got lazy and granted the executive branch too many exceptions. Trump is the end result of decades of corruption, greed, and just inept laziness.
The water wasn’t used for firefighting.
The whole idea was to cause crop failures, which Trump will of course blame California for.
