He would clog up any drainage system if he did not break his toilet time into segments and flush once or twice in between segments so as to not create overflow or clog up the sewer pipes.

Word of advice, if you didn't eat so much fast food you wouldn't have to flush that many times in one sitting. Eat some leafy green vegetables. Also, your tanning bed lights are making you orange. No one told you?

So, water saving faucets and toilets are his next target, huh? More water than they know what to do with?

Our next big crises, globally, is going to be worse than oil: potable, fresh water for drinking, etc. It could lead to conflicts and wars and it is coming.

In the midst of that, he is proposing that we reverse the standards on wasting water? Does he have companies with contracts waiting lined up to product water wasting products? Is he trying to accelerate the shortages in order to support more privatization of drinking water?

What burns me is that he keeps coming up with destructive or regressive ideas while we have HUGE list of glaring problems right now that are dire and need attention, so he is also detrimental by way of neglect. Trump is destruction incarnate. He's the best!

As a note, I could imagine he has to flush a dozen times while emitting the supersized logs he produces in that bloated bag of a crap factory. He probably got the idea from that: White House, (oval office bathroom) "Oooh!" Flush! "Errrrr" Flush! "Ungggg." Flush! Repeat.

I had to scroll before anyone figured it out.

In fairness, the 1st generation of low flow toilets did suck and you had to flush a few times. It took a little while, but eventually the industry figured it out.

Todays low flow toilets work amazingly well, certainly better overall than the original ones. Also modern shower heads have a removable ring that greatly increases the water flow.

He's railing against a problem that was solved 5 years ago!

Anyone who flushes everytime after doing number one are wasting water. I don't flush the toilet at night or during the day when I am at home unless I do number two. I flush one in the morning and once at night before going to bed, unless I do number two.

“If it’s yellow, let it mellow, if it’s brown flush it down” school of thought on this wasteful subject.

If I lived alone, I would add a flush when I leave home during the day, but otherwise agree with you.

My showers, even when I shampoo my hair are around 2 minutes instead of 12-14 minutes. I leave the water off when brushing my teeth or shaving. I wash dishes, including pots with maybe 1 gallon of water. My home and my body are now cleaner that they were when I took old showers, brushed, shaved or washed dishes, silverware and pots, and I was always very clean. I can actually feel the difference with my body.
