The first veto of the president’s second term killed legislation that would have brought clean water to some of the most conservative parts of the state. Residents wonder why.

Probably because he wasn’t bribed to grant the project. Oh well, the tRump voters can die of thirst in that conservative area of Colorado. It’s what they wanted by voting for it, and nothing of value will be lost.
