President Donald Trump gave a press conference in Rancho Palos Verdes, California and was asked about the fires.
How would you help them?
How would you help all those across the nation struggling from natural disasters?
(First off, is it a natural disaster if the fire is started by an arson? The answer is no.)
So, in genius fashion, President Trump answers the question by calling out the root of the problem of all the fires in California.
It’s dry.
A lush land that is moist from being well watered doesn’t go up smoke.
He then pointed out that Gov. Gavin Newsom has been funneling the water.
Instead of funneling it to the dry areas that need it, he’s made sure it’s funneled back out to the ocean. Makes sense doesn’t it?
But the media reporting on this story ignored all that and honed in one phrase Trump say and claimed he’s threatening to hold back water. (Here’s where we collectively roll our eyes and slap our forehead)

Now this story is covered by the mainstream media, but I can’t in good conscience quote them.
Why?
They’re all saying the same thing, “Trump Threatens To Withhold Water From CA”
That’s their takeaway.
We don’t hate the media enough.
Here’s what President Trump actually said:
“I’m going to give you more water than almost anybody has, and the farmers up north are going to be able to use 100% of their land, not 1% of their land, and the water is going to come all the way down to Los Angeles, and you’re going to have more water than you ever saw. So California, vote for Trump, and you’re going to have water, and you’re going to have growth, and you’re going to have prosperity.”
WATCH the full clip yourself:
WATCH: A reporter asked Trump what he would do to bring water to California, prevent the droughts, and stop the fires. His response was extremely nuanced and super BRILLIANT

Trump is right, they destroyed California farms and created a man made dustbowl. How else would they control our food supply? pic.twitter.com/Ovt9M8eJRa

President Trump knows this is a huge problem for California, and he’s been trying to fix it for a while but Newsom and his Democrat buddies keep getting in the way.
“One of the first things I’m going to do for California when I get back in office is force Gavin Newsom to give you WATER.”
