3. In this case? YES! In fact it was at least 5 lies in a single statement.

“I broke into Los Angeles, can you believe it? I had to break in. I invaded Los Angeles, and we opened up the water, and the water is now flowing down; they have so much water they don’t know what to do. They were sending it out to the Pacific for environmental reasons.”

1. Of course he did not "break into" Los Angeles
2. There is no water "now flowing down". There was a limited amount of water released and once that was done, no more water flowing.
3. No water ever came anywhere close to Los Angeles
4. They don't have so much water that they don't know what to do. He actually wasted billions of gallons by releasing it to areas that didn't currently need it and where it nearly caused flooding. This will almost certainly now cause a water shortage this summer for farmers in the region.
5. Nobody was sending any water out to the Pacific

He also falsely claimed that some of California's water comes from Canada.
