Why does the convicted felon hate this tiny fish so much? As Los Angeles burns, resident-elect felon Trump is yelling at a fish.

Let It Burn!

As devastating wildfires continue to burn through Los Angeles, so far killing at least 10 people and forcing well over 100,000 people to evacuate, or try to, President-elect Donald Trump has decided to point his ire toward a fish. Not the severe Santa Ana winds that fueled the fires. Not the unusually dry weather. Not the steady march of home development into fire-prone areas.
A fish.

In a post Wednesday morning on Truth Social, Trump blamed California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, for depriving the LA region of water because he wanted to protect “an essentially worthless fish called a smelt.” Trump chided Newsom for not approving a water restoration declaration that doesn’t exist, per Newsom’s office. He also implied that protections for the delta smelt — a small fish species found only in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, an expansive wetland in Northern California — caused some fire hydrants to run dry in parts of LA. (Earlier this week, fire hydrants in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood ran dry, not because the city had no water but because of water pressure and other infrastructure issues.)

This isn’t the first time that Trump has bad-mouthed this fish. For nearly a decade now, the incoming president has claimed that he can solve California’s incredibly complex water problems by simply undoing regulations designed to help the delta smelt skirt extinction, as E&E News’s Jennifer Yachnin has reported. Those problems are not rooted in drought, Trump claims, but in Democratic rules that restrain private interests. In reality, rising temperatures have made California’s droughts even dryer.
 
A fish that nobody eats. :dunno: That is functionally extinct.

A fish that is a vital part of the food chain. A fish that other, larger commercially fished species feed upon. Saving those small fish is helping to protect and preserve the state's multi-billion dollar fishing industry.

The smelt is also one of the most accurate indicators of the health of the state's water supply.

But as with everything else that has to do with the environment, right-winger idiots are too narrow-minded and thick-skulled to see it.

All they want to do is turn everything into their ugly, dirty, gutter politics and bitch about the danged ol libs!!! :fogey:

That's a different kind of smelt.
 
The fish in question feeds the bigger fish that feed the state's $40 billion annual fishing industry.

But that's too complicated for trumper idiots to grasp.
Did you get that disinformation from your White Lib Cult leaders? Goebbels would be proud of you Nazi fucks.
 

Smelts are a family of small fish, the Osmeridae, found in the North Atlantic and North Pacific oceans, as well as rivers, streams and lakes in Europe, North America and Northeast Asia​

Conservatives blame California wildfires on a small fish, DEI and more​

President-elect Donald Trump inaccurately blamed water shortages in Los Angeles on policies meant to preserve an endangered fish called the Delta smelt. :palm: :palm::palm:

Last time they had a horrible fire, I believe it was the Paradise Fire, he blamed it on not raking the forests.

Simpletons voted for a simpleton.

We have a large Finnish culture here. Smelts are sold in grocery stores, both fresh and frozen.

Nomad is correct. They are a vital part of a huge and complex ecosystem that supplies us with larger fish for our tables and our pets. Uneducated morons like the deplorable MAGAT garbage and their #FeloniousFuckup are incapable of understanding this.

As for the L.A. water supply, I suspect that any city suffering fires that are burning hundreds of structures at once would run out of water. Even in MAGATLand.

Growing up we ate smelts
 
You are wrong!!! You ignorant white lib nazi racist POS. You hate the environment. You know nothing about nature.

I know more about it than a ranting, raving, lying-ass N4T like you.
Did you get that disinformation from your White Lib Cult leaders? Goebbels would be proud of you Nazi fucks.

No, I got it from non partisan reporting available to anyone who cares to look it up.

No, Sybil. It is DEMOCRATS yelling at a fish.
'Water pressure and other infrastructure issues' means 'no water to fight fires', dumbass. Your word games won't work.

It is not possible to measure the temperature of the Earth.

Smelt does not save any fishing industry. The SDTC does not HAVE a sufficient water supply, thanks to DEMOCRATS dismantling reservoirs.
 
No, it's not.

It's the same Delta Smelt that the trumper enviro-haters have been bitching about all along.
Puh-leese. Smelt are not the 'environment'. They are a fish. A worthless fish.
And Democrat idiots dismantle your reservoir system to save it, and to save Sea Monkeys.

Then you act all surprised because there is insufficient water.

MAGA isn't a piece of real estate.

What happened in the SDTC is unfortunately self inflicted.
