Move marks president’s latest effort to dismantle pollution regulations and support for cleaner-running vehicles
Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that he is repealing the Biden-era federal fuel economy standards, significantly weakening fuel efficiency requirements for tens of millions of new gasoline-powered cars and light trucks.
It marks the US president’s latest effort to dismantle pollution regulations and federal support for cleaner-running vehicles and renewable energy. Burning gasoline is a significant contributor to global heating and transportation is the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States.
“We are officially terminating Joe Biden’s ridiculously burdensome, horrible actually, Cafe standards that imposed expensive restrictions,” Trump said in an Oval Office announcement, flanked by top auto executives including the CEOs of Ford and Stellantis. “It put tremendous upward pressure on car prices, combined with the insane electric vehicle mandate.”
This is what you voted for protest-non-voters.
But Genocide Joe or some shit
No candidate is owed your vote, no matter what, no matter who the opposition is. Earn the vote. Dems did this just as much as trump is doing it.
Biden: Puts in fuel efficiency standards.
You: Nope.
I mean there is literally no other way to describe the sitaution.
This isn’t about Biden, it’s about the Dems giving us shitty candidates that no one likes and expecting us to just suck it up. They shafted Bernie, and they’ll shaft any other true progressive dem for another neolib shill. That doesn’t change if people continue voting for them. End of discussion.
While Harris didn’t explicitly say it, it was obvious she would continue on climate issues.
And are you even reading what the article is about? Because it seems like you’re avoiding it. The article is literally about the fuel efficiency standards that Biden put in, and you are dead set on ignoring that. So I guess it bears repeating: Trump repealing Biden’s fuel efficiency standards is what you voted for.
Again, not even talking about the article. The comment is blaming the people who refused to vote for a shit candidate, and you all completely refuse to see the faults of your party. Sure they’re better than Republicans, but not by much. Neither party gives a shit about you. This isn’t the fault of non voters, it’s the fault of the system that’s currently in place and it doesn’t matter whose in charge, if the rich want it, they’re gonna get it. Trump wouldn’t be doing this if it didn’t benefit his backers. Same way the Dems would.
Same energy as that guy getting mad at costco for sueing the trump admin.
Not even in the slightest. Fuck Trump, but fuck the Dems for doing absolutely nothing and expecting everyone’s vote. Every election is the same since Obama
So Obama put these in place, Trump undid them. Biden puts similar in place, Trump undoes them. There sure seems to a lot of undoing for nothing ever being done. There are a lot of shitty Democrats, the U.S. leans far right, but “democrats do nothing” is the shield Trumpers hide behind every day.
