On Friday, during a White House roundtable on small business, President Donald Trump complained about energy-efficient light bulbs and water efficiency.
Per The Guardian, the president said that he dislikes energy-efficient light bulbs because they make him look orange.
“It doesn’t make you look as good,” Trump said.
“Being a vain person, that’s very important to me,” he added.
“It gives you an orange look, I don’t want an orange look.”
Trump also expressed frustration about water efficiency, claiming that plumbing fixtures don’t have enough pressure, which forces people in certain areas of the country to flush toilets more frequently, which leads to them using more water.
“People are flushing toilets 10 times, 15 times as opposed to once,” the president said.
“They end up using more water,” he added, explaining that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been directed to look into water standards and fix the situation with water efficiency.
