Is there a transcript of this speech that triggered
Botany?
WRT "California doesn't have electricity" - probably exaggerating/parodying what Trump actually said - California summers are power black-out season. Power generation in CA is so tight, due to gooberment regulations (that include forced use of intermittent sources such as wind and solar), that a hotter than average day can strain power availability, forcing blackouts.
Is my vague memory correct that
Botany's use of things botanical includes hallucinogenic hemp?
