The Felon-in-Chief tweeting lies once again.
Trump says he ordered the military to go into CA last night to turn on the water. CA responds.

FACT CHECK from the California Department of Water Resources:
The military did not enter California. The federal government restarted federal water pumps after they were offline for maintenance for three days. State water supplies in Southern California remain plentiful.
In other words Trump is lying.

(2,598 posts)Showed many responses from the cult on his social media site. Its insane. They are over the moon ecstatic about it, so proud of him, just falling all over themselves praising their Dear Leader. It is head-shakingly bizarre how gullible they are, how they believe everything he says. Totally removed from reality.

He wants to invade Blue states in the worst way.

(310 posts)He is so demented he probably believes this himself. He lives in a universe of his own making. He needs to be in an institution. In the meantime, we can expect more outrages

I have a lifelong friend who is probably totally in a twist today that her gawd had to make the water run in CA.
We grew up next door to each other in Torrance, CA
TaDa! here is the BlueSky post:

(2,393 posts)Up til now, his lies have had at least a tenuous relationship to reality, or were about unimportant things. "Forests need to be raked!","I'm 6'3"!", etc. Even the worst ones he'd pose as suggestions, or just asking questions,"Maybe we should inject bleach..."
This is different. This is a huge lie, that makes no sense, and would fall apart if challenged. However, as others have pointed out, his base swallowed this completely.
What's next? "Last night I received classified information that Adam Schiff is a pedophile. To keep America great, I had him arrested".
I think there are two possibilities. One, this is a trial balloon to see what they can get away with. So far, so good. His base has no questions and cheer his "decisive actions". Now we need to see if the press asks any questions,"Which specific military units were used? Where exactly were they sent? Doesn't this violate habeus corpus?" I'm not holding my breath.
The other possibilities is that he is rapidly sliding into senility, and is delusional. Is there anyone surrounding him that would call for the 25th amendment?
