Kimmel on Fox News’ Jennifer Griffin Fact Checking Trump on Turning Water on in California: ‘No Cabinet Position for You’

KIMMEL: “Because if we become our own country, who’s going to turn on our giant water valve for us?
(Laughter)
I mentioned last night that Trump has been taking victory laps, celebrating turning a non-existent valve to turn our water back on. Smokey Unbearable was at it again last night, too.
(Laughter)
Again, he wrote, ‘The water is flowing, big time, in Northern California. The long empty reservoirs will soon be full. Thank you, President Trump!’
(Laughter)
‘Thank you, me, for solving an imaginary problem I made up!’ Somehow, he managed to fit six lies in three sentences there. ‘The water is flowing big time’ also is how he lets his nurse know it’s time to change the diaper.
(Laughter)
But unfortunately for Trump, his dumb claim was shot down by None other than his favorite TV network. A Reporter from Fox News, Jennifer Griffin, posted, ‘U.S. Defense officials tell me they did not send troops to turn on the water in Washington, despite President Trump’s claims overnight.’ That’s it, Jennifer. No cabinet position for you, I guess.
(Laughter)
No one seems to know why or how Trump came up with this silly idea. But to put it to rest, we decided to go to the source, and Governor Gavin Newsom is joining us via satellite right now.”
