He says this stuff in the most basic terms, which are true. Yes, there has been a “drought” but there is no water shortage for people who need it. It’s all state induced.
Of course by the same token the water is “state-induced” too, as all the dams were build by the government.
I think Trump misspoke. There was a drought but the water shortage is man made. Influx of people but no new reservoirs plus the tree huggers would rather save the snail darter than the farmers.
What about all the empty reservoirs?
There is more water available, but the politicians in California had no foresight. The water is there, but they need to plan to capture it.
Seriously, how can you have a drought in a freakin’ desert? Isn’t that what it is there for? Las Vegas, California, etc. We need more water!!! No, you need less swimming pools and PEOPLE.
