Jimmy Kimmel Douses Trump’s Claim Military ‘Turned On’ California’s Water


Jimmy Kimmel dampened claims by Donald Trump that the military entered California to send more water from the northern region to fight the L.A fires.

Late night host Jimmy Kimmel dampened claims by President Donald Trump that the U.S. military entered California to release a large amount of water from the northern part of the state to fight the Los Angeles fires.
