Trump signs order making America’s showers great again

WASHINGTON, United States (AFP) — US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order lifting water-pressure restrictions on showerheads, a move the White House said would “make America’s showers great again.”

Trump has long complained about inadequate water pressure in American bathrooms which he blames on federal water-conservation regulations.

“In my case I like to take a nice shower, to take care of my beautiful hair,” Trump told reporters as he signed the order in the Oval Office on Wednesday.

“I have to stand under the shower for 15 minutes till it gets wet. It comes out drip, drip, drip. It’s ridiculous.”

The order directs the Energy Department to roll back “radical green” regulations limiting the flow of showerheads to 2.5 gallons of water per minute.
