Day 1,274: Trump continues fearless war on plumbing fixtures

Donald Trump’s war on plumbing is apparently back.

He previously vowed to roll back regulations on sinks, toilets and showers.

Trump shouted to the crowd, “Sinks, toilets and showers: you don’t get any water! They put restrictors on and now they made it permanent!”

He lamented having to flush toilets too often.

“People are flushing toilets 10 times, 15 times.”

From the White House South Lawn on Thursday — flanked by two pickup trucks and a “Trump Administration” branded crane holding faux weight — Trump claimed that he was “bring[ing] back” consumer choice of bathroom appliances during another event about rolling back regulations.

Apparently Trump is having issue getting sinks and showers to work. He claimed, “You take a shower, the water doesn’t come out. You want to wash your hands, the water doesn’t come out.”

Trump, a man who has probably never washed a dish in his life, bragged about inventing dishwashers that allow more water: “Dishwashers, you didn’t have any water so the people that do the dishes, you press it and it goes again and you do it again and again. So you might as well give them the water because you will end up using less water. So we made it so dishwashers now have a lot more water.”

To raucous applause, he told attendees that he made incandescent light bulbs great again.

For the second time in three days, Trump also turned a speech into a strange, incoherent and nakedly political speech from the White House grounds.

The U.S. is approaching 140,000 real deaths from COVID-19 and Trump is talking about imaginary showers that don’t have water and imaginary disappearing suburbs at an event where he’s flanked by trucks supporting fake weight.
