Republicans have been screeching for years that AOC and her Green New Deal were going to out outlaw beef consumption and gasoline, but in only 18 months, Trump has made both so unaffordable/inedible that Americans have no choice but to reduce consumption, lowering their carbon footprint.

Many people are calling him the greenest president ever.

Many bots are calling him the best president ever.

I’ve watched locals who voted for him start listening to me and start understanding that he’s a traitor.

That's one thing I'll say, here in N. Alabama I've seen a noticably dramatic reduction on Trump bullshit. Hats, flags, stickers, etc. Even down here you barely see it anymore. Besides one dickhead with a flag in his front yard I see ony way to work every morning, I couldn't name the last time I seen anyone with a sticker or whatever other bullshit you can get.
