“we shouldn’t be in a position where you have tumbleweed that’s dry as a bone. that even tumbleweed can be nice and green and rich and loaded up with water and it’s not gonna burn. you don’t even have to remove it. it’s not gonna burn. but it’s just dry. so I hope you can all get together and say, ’I’m so happy with the water that’s gonna be flowing down.”
An imaginary executive order..
“I’m signing an executive order to open up the pumps and valves in the north. we want to get that water pouring down here as quickly as possible, let hundreds of millions of gallons of water flow down into Southern California, and that’ll be a big benefit to you. look, if you don’t want it, you’re going to tell me, but I can’t imagine it … we have a lot of water that is available and I hope you can work that out among yourselves, because we show that we have to have that water. you’re talking about unlimited water coming up from the Pacific Northwest, even coming up from parts of Canada, and it pours down naturally, it has for a million years, it pours down, you’ll never run out.”
