Reminds me of Trump and his… frustration with low-flow toilets.

“You turn on the faucet and you don’t get any water. They take a shower and water comes dripping out. Just dripping out, very quietly dripping out,” the President continued, lowering his voice as he spoke about the drips. “People are flushing toilets 10 times, 15 times, as opposed to once.”

I think the takeaway from this statement is trump takes some massive dumps.

He flushes evidence.

Remember the time someone saw him receive a note which he read and then ate?

Correction: this is reportedly a very frequent behaviour

I think he was trying to flush classified documents down the toilet.

Well yeah he is morbidly obese fat ass. I bet he also leaves shit stains on the toilet seat and doesn’t clean it up like my coworker.

That’s the joke, but the truth is even stupider. He hasn’t experienced a low-flow toilet in decades.

We have one. The multiple flush thing doesn’t happen. Having a different amount of flush for what you’re in there to do helps.

Same with low-flow shower heads. Yes they did suck 20 years ago. They work just fine now. They’re also helpful if you live somewhere which has low water pressure anyway.

TBH, I’ve got pretty low water pressure where I live. Low-flow shower heads are bullshit, and I would much, much rather have the bad, old, inefficient, high-flow shower heads, and a decent amount of water pressure. High efficiency toilets, washing machines, dishwashers, etc. are great. But dammit, I just want to shower under a high-pressure firehose, at temperatures that will boil my skin off in ten minutes!

That’s why my old boss always had a pipe wrench in his suitcase: To remove the pressure reduction piece from the shower head.
