Trump signs order to 'make America's showers great again'

Henceforth, all shower fixtures will be plated with gold, in honor of the Dear Leader who likes Golden Showers.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-environment/2025/04/09/trump-showerhead-rule-water-executive-order/

President Donald Trump signed an executive order Wednesday lifting restrictions on how much water can be used by shower heads, saying his administration would “make America’s showers great again.”

The order underscored how Trump remains fixated on one of his favorite targets — more-efficient shower heads that he has blamed for ruining his “perfect” hair — even in the midst of global upheaval caused by his turbulent tariff policies.

“I like to take a nice shower to take care of my beautiful hair,” Trump said before signing the order at the White House. “I have to stand in the shower for 15 minutes until it gets wet. … It’s ridiculous.”

In a fact sheet sent to reporters, the White House said the order “frees Americans from excessive regulations that turned a basic household item into a bureaucratic nightmare,” adding that Trump would “end the Obama-Biden war on water pressure and make America’s showers great again.”

H2O pressure is not a function of how much water is used. You can increase H2O pressure
by decreasing the diameter of the pipe or hose the water is flowing through.

He thinks that make believe hairstyle/comb over is beautiful.

I would like to be able to have a camera in that shower and see what a Billionaire Dictator’s showering looks like.
15 solid minutes to get the thin layer of ‘hair’ on his ego-blown head wet. I could spit it wet in less time…where’s Mel?
Trumpie-dump…There’s nothing beautiful about you…except your expiration date.
