    Classic Trumpism, making symbolic gestures that are not just pointless, but also actively harmful.

      I mean there will be more water down stream for a few days and then absolutely none until they close the dam and let it build back up over a few years…

        They don’t need the water now. It’s for farmland, but this isn’t the time of year they need it.

        • So what you’re saying is it’s an investment in draining off the needed water for the future. Meaning in a few years when they are running low on reserved water for crops California will lose revenue on crops, and food prices will increase across the U.S.
