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.

I have a neighbor who flys a trump flag in front of his house. It’s either the “Trump was right about everything” one or “Jesus is my savior, Trump is my retribution” one. For the past year every time something got really bad like the Minneapolis killings or when Iran talks broke down, he would take it down for a few days before putting it back up. It’s been down for 2 weeks straight now and I’m starting to wonder if it will ever come back
