Why can't someone step up and telll him when he's about to do something stupid. What if he decides he wants to nuke someone, will anyone stop him? Scary situation we have gotten ourselves into.
"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."
Climate scientist Peter Gleick — who specializes in water issues — lamented on Bluesky that water resources farmers had been "relying on" were effectively "thrown away" by the Trump administration all for the sale of "a photo op & a bragging media post."
"This water will not be captured, will not be useful for cities or farms or firefighting," Gleick wrote. "It is now lost."

Our two most notable MAGA-ites on here will totally defend this. Watch and see.

I'm not going to pretend to be an expert on California water management but I am not going to assume that the two self-proclaimed experts quoted in the "Alternet" article cited in the OP are actual experts. One is a project manager who majored in political science and the other one is an anti-Trump California liberal who claims the recent wildfires are the direct result of climate change.
Whatever Gavin Newsom and the radical left wing-nuts in California have been doing to prepare for and mitigate natural disasters, it isn't working. I prefer letting states manage there own affairs whenever possible but California's state government and most of its local governments are turning California residents into perpetual victims.

Half the libtards are saying Trump didn't really release any water and the other half are saying he did and it will "most likely" be wasted.
Libtards f up everything they touch and then they don't want anybody to fix it and make them look like the incompetent and corrupt fools they are.
"LA just burned down, but don't try to fix the problem." Idiots.
Trump is fixing this. Also, California is turning red. Thanks libtards.

Trump did absolutely nothing to fix the problem, only did it for people like you to think that he did.

Trump and many others warned them for years and they did nothing. Then people like you come along and trash Trump. Trump's making sure it gets fixed. Meanwhile libtards on here place no blame on the Cali Dem failed state. At least some Cali Dems are smarter than the libtards on here and are figuring it out and making California red.

Dumber than dumb. KY will be blue again before Cali will be red. Californians are laughing at you. You'll have a massive case of the Red ass before Cali residents ever sniff single digits of being Red in a Presidential election.

A truer statement has never been typed on here. SEKYFan, they are too far gone to realize how true your statement is.

Liberals sound like the promoters of the Titanic's maiden voyage of the unsinkable ship. The Democrat Party has sailed into an iceberg and the orchestra is playing in an almost empty ballroom.

It's even worse. Half the libtards are saying the Titanic didn't sink and the other half are saying it did sink but it's Trump's fault. The next time the libtards on here are right about anything will be the first time. They are only useful for comedy and as contrary indicators.

Californians aren't laughing, they are furious at their corrupt and incompetent "leaders." California is getting redder all the time, but I don't expect you to know it or anything else.

Trump says he opened California’s water. Local officials say he nearly flooded them.
“Unscheduled water releases require close coordination with local officials and safety personnel, as well as downstream agricultural water users, in order to reduce flood risks to communities and farms,” wrote Padilla. “Based on the urgent concerns I have heard from my constituents, as well as recent reporting, it appears that gravely insufficient notification was given, recklessly endangering residents downstream.”
But a former senior Bureau of Reclamation official said moves like the one in Tulare County could endanger property and lives. Reclamation is the primary federal agency with authority over delivering water in the West, while the Army Corps is largely responsible for flood control.
“Something really bad could happen because of their nonsensical approach,” the former official, who was granted anonymity because of the issue’s political sensitivity, said. “Floods are real. This isn’t playing around with a software company.”

More mindless cut and paste from ultralib propaganda sites. So lazy and ignorant.
Trump working to fix Cal water crisis caused by Dems. Dems "DON'T FIX IT!!!"
Trump working to fix open borders crisis caused by Dems. Dems "DON'T FIX IT!!!"
Trump working to fix drug and human trafficking crisis caused by Dems. Dems "DON'T FIX IT!!!"
Mindbogglingly stupid people.
