    Trump deserves failing environmental grade

    October 26, L.A. Times: “Never mind the facts. White House says it gets an A+ on Environmental Issues.” An A+ for generating fake news too as these are the first positive words to appear on Trump’s environmental record. Hey President  Trump: Does your A+ self-assessment include your Paris Climate Change Treaty walk out providing America with the distinction of being the sole country in the world not committed to protecting the Earth’s climate? That’s right, we’re numero uno, alone at the bottom.

    Are you considering your EPA hornet’s nest, now headed by climate denying former coal lobbyist Andrew Wheeler after the climate wrecking ball Scott Pruitt stepped down in July as the 13 ethical investigations became a little too much.

    Factor in the Clean Power Plan dismissal replaced by your disgraced "Affordable Clean Energy" plan whose weakened environmental rules will kill thousands every year per Vox?

    Mr. President, Americans know all too well your love affair with fake news but please don’t subject us to it.
