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.

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

Correction: this is reportedly a very frequent behaviour

I EAT PAPER ALL THE TIME.

I Think You Should Leave wasn't meant to be reality.

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.

I always knew he was full of shit.

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