Trump Changes United States Shower Rules to Tame His Hair; and a Sesame Street Theme Park Employee Gets Punched Over Mask Policy.
Apparently Trump is no fan of the current shower head law. Manufacturers cannot bypass a 2.5 gallon-per-minute maximum flow rate that was set by Congress in the 1990s. Each shower head counts toward that limit. But apparently, Trump has moved to change those laws.
As a result of the law changes, the new plan will allow multiple shower nozzles to meet the requirement separately.
This change comes after Trump railed against shower heads that go “drip, drip, drip.”
“You turn on the shower–if you’re like me, you can’t wash your beautiful hair properly,” said Trump during a visit to a Whirlpool Corp. manufacturing plant. “You waste 20 minutes longer. Please come out. The water–it drips, right?”
However, Andrew DeLaski, the executive director of the Appliance Standards Awareness project, says the idea is all washed up.
“It’s a gimmick to put multiple nozzles on a shower head,” said DeLaski. “There really is no good reason to reduce water and energy standards that have been around for 20 years.”

A teen who works at a children’s theme park in Pennsylvania was punched for trying to enforce the park’s mask policy. Both a male and a female aggressively punched the 17-year-old.
The park reopened in late July with a mask policy that does not allow guests to enter or remain in the park if they refuse to wear one.
“Face coverings are required for guests age 2 and older while in the park except as stated here,” the Sesame Place’s website reads. “Guests are not required to wear them while eating and drinking, or in designated relaxation areas of the park. Face coverings are not allowed in the water (e.g., the water slides and all other water attractions in the park).”
Consequently, both of the guests left after punching the employee. It isn’t clear whether they left on their own or if they were forced to leave.
“The health and safety of our guests and team members is our top priority, and violence of any kind is unacceptable and not tolerated at our park,” said Sesame Place spokesperson Dana Ryan. “We’ve been in close communication with the family of our injured team member and are hoping for a full and speedy recovery.”
The teen underwent surgery for injuries to his teeth and jaw. People who work in costumes often face ridicule from park guests. Not only that, but they have to deal with hot conditions and sweat, so you’d think the parks might provide them with deodorant coupons or similar.
