   'Very dangerous': Trump dumps billions of gallons of water farmers were counting on for summer
   
   

   In a post to his official X account, Trump tweeted a "photo of beautiful water flow that I just opened in California," writing: "Today, 1.6 billion gallons and, in 3 days, it will be 5.2 billion gallons." He suggested that the water release would help officials in the Golden State fight wildfires in Southern California.
   
   "A decision to take summer water from local farmers and dump it out of these reservoirs shows a complete lack of understanding of how the system works and sets a very dangerous precedent," Vink said. "This decision was clearly made by someone with no understanding of the system or the impacts that come from knee-jerk political actions."
   
   "This water will not be captured, will not be useful for cities or farms or firefighting," Gleick wrote. "It is now lost."

   Only an idiot would think a farmer's field takes priority over cities that are burning to the ground, displacing hundreds of thousands of people. Try eating with no house to live in sometime.

    The water was being diverted into the ocean by the state. Trump stopped that and allowed the water to run to the interior.

    Obbe is a brainwashed CNN tool who doesn't even know what's he talking about. Feelings over facts. Hatred over logic. That's Obbe.

    in all honesty, if the fire hydrants weren't working, why didn't they put a pump in the ocean which that community is right next to and freely pump practically unlimited water onto the burning fires?

    Salt water will stop crops growing and isn't as good as normal water for fires

    Crops? What crops? You mean the ones engulfed in flames?
    
    I think crops should be way down on the list of priorities, below human life.
