Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump told California voters Friday that he can solve their water crisis, declaring, "There is no drought."

Speaking at a rally in Fresno, Calif., Trump accused state officials of denying water to Central Valley farmers so they can send it out to sea "to protect a certain kind of three-inch fish."

Good.

It's about time somebody in a position to get wide exposure said this outloud.

Mr. Trump speaks the truth.

California's "water problems" are pretty much its own fault.

Aside:
I will acknowledge the federale's complicity in the form of ridiculous regulatory and judicial rulings regarding how water is used in the once-golden, now browning state.

I have family members who live in the northern part of the state.  The fact that area went months at a time without precipitation and well levels dropped had nothing to do with politics.

So no.. Trump doesn't speak the truth.

I don't give two sh*ts what Trump says. People who live in that state, especially in the northern counties, went many months without any appreciable precipitation.  I saw first-hand the result of well water levels crashing in Tehama County.  Don't deign to tell me it's fake.  That Trump is -- once again -- dead wrong is attributable to one fact only: he doesn't have a clue what he's talking about.

You did see that first link was US Congress, and it refuted you...

Hey, whatever Donny says ... his followers believe.  He could turn around tomorrow and tell them he was just suggesting that there isn't a drought ... and they would praise him.
