This is so infuriating.

We have term limits

We have laws against treason as well, and those dont apply to him.

That seems to make sense if you stop there and never think about it any deeper, but what they are really arguing is that being in a car is generally unsafe (true) and that they need to make gas more expensive to discourage driving (this is prescriptive so I can't say it's true necessarily, but I agree with it). The problem is that you are supposed to make gas more expensive through higher excise taxes, not by making cars less efficient and burn all the gas.

But excise taxes on gas go to the government and could be used for public good on infrastructure, etc. We can't have that when there's oil and automotive corporations we could enrich! /Republican "logic"

Jesus what a shit stain on humanity this guy is. If I was the alien was to visit earth to give a warning about the future of humanity and the carelessness with nuclear weapons, and I saw this was the elected official in the country symbolizing freedom, I'd release the fucking grey goo without hesitation.

Oh wow, thanks Trump. I mean we've only had severe yearly forest fires here in the Northwest and I can't enjoy my summers anymore because I have to wear a fucking mask when I go outside, but global warming is just a Chinese hoax, right?!

Fucking dipshit.
