My internet was out all day so I watched local news for the first time in months. Found out that the orange hitler is

[ImNotGod]

using one of his many emergency orders keeping a massive coal electric plant open here because "we need the electricity" even though it was slated to shut down this month after he pulled this crap in May. Our electric company quickly came out with a statement saying that they not only don't need or want this plant to stay open but its going to increase our electric bills. Now, this is happening all over the country I'm sure and the orange asshole is not only destroying our environment but also driving up our cost of living. tRump is as stupid and evil as the idiots who voted for him.

Found a article and it looks like our pain will be spread through a few other states : Consumers Energy's costs of running the plant will be added as a surcharge to customers' bills in Michigan, Illinois, Minnesota, Wisconsin, North Dakota, most of Indiana, and portions of four other states.

3. He is killing wind power and solar subsidies.

Promises to get us back on fossil fuel again.

Spoken like a true fossil!

4. He just keeps doing stupid things now we see why he went bankrupt so many times

His decision-making is all warped by his prejudices and conspiracy theory belief. He’s such a gullible moron and once he’s bought into something he won’t let go. He’s like a snapping turtle.

6. He gets tons of $$$ from the petroleum industry.

Not nearly enough from wind farm makers, apparently.

Money is the deciding factor in his prejudice. Just think how he was all of a sudden pro-EVs when Musk was pouring money into his and repugs campaigns. Now Musk has backed off and he hates EVs again.

5. You Will Take Your Rate Increase

and increased smog, mercury, selenium and lead exposure with a smile and eternal gratefulness to our dear orange-faced leader!

Paying higher prices and having more health issues with a decaying health-care system is MAGA's way of ensuring the Great American Comeback!

11. It should be apparent to everyone now that Trump hates the United States and everyone in it

8. This just drives me crazy

For my entire life the GOP has decried government overreach and power and now we have 1 person just deciding what happens in all sectors of the economy and law enforcement in this country. Oh he doesn’t want a coal plant to close? Just sign an executive order. Don’t like what’s happening on the streets of this country, just sign an executive order an put military boots on the ground. Believe that tariffs are the way? Just sign an executive order declaring some random emergency.
