'Faucet! Dishwasher! Water! Bad!': Trump ruthlessly mocked for town hall rant

Former President Donald Trump went into a rant about dishwashers at his Fox News town hall with Laura Ingraham on Tuesday evening — the latest in a long string of times he has complained about the low water pressure on newer, energy-saving fixtures and appliances.

"They come out with faucets where no water comes out," said Trump. "You know, if you go and buy a home, and they know what I mean, the showers, you stand under a shower and there's no water coming, and you end up standing there five times longer ... so in Ohio, you have this great company that came to me, a dishwasher company, one of the biggest and finest companies, but they were going out of business. They said, we're not allowed to use water."

Confused commentators on social media reacted on X with laughter and amazement at what the Republican frontrunner was choosing to treat as a policy issue.

"Trump: 'Faucet! Dishwasher! Water! Bad!'" mocked Annabelle Higgins.

"If your grandfather talked like Trump, you wouldn’t let him use the remote control unsupervised," said comedian Jay Black.

"Dishwashers and windmills: The Donald Trump Story," posted former sports reporter Robert Lusetich.

"Can he EVER tell a true story? No water?" wrote the account "Ginger Spice." "Jesus."

"We’re not allowed to use water," posted the account "Purple People Eater." "Dry cleaning dishwashers were not on my bingo card."

"'You stand under a shower and there’s no water coming.' Not like the golden showers that Trump prefers," wrote James Wooten. "At least, those are reliable. And warm."
