RUSH: “Trump Targets Obama\u2019s Global Warming Emissions Rules for Cars.<\/a>”<\/p>\n

\"\"He\u2019s gonna announce during a meeting with the auto industry and executives today that he\u2019s gonna order the EPA to begin the process of eliminating Obama\u2019s greenhouse gas emissions standards for auto manufacturers. Do you realize what a big deal this? Do you realize what a thumb in the nose…? This is going to drive the left even crazier, folks. This is going to make them even more insane. They think global warming is going to kill them! They think they are going to die. They think they\u2019re going to die by being broiled alive in their backyards.<\/p>\n

They think they\u2019re going to die in floods and high surf because of rising sea levels. They think that hurricanes and tornadoes and earthquakes are going to kill them. But they are convinced they are going to die, and they are convinced that the Earth is no longer going to be able to support human life in another 30 years. Do not doubt me. They believe this — and the younger the leftists are, the more they believe it. This is why they all drive electric cars and love wind farms and think solar and all this gobbledygook stuff is meaningful when it isn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s why they\u2019re willing to go broke getting in line to drive a Tesla, \u2019cause they really think that kind of stuff is going to save their lives. So here comes Trump today, and he\u2019s gonna eliminate all these pollution restrictions. He\u2019s not gonna get rid of all of them. There are new, really strangling emissions controls on brand-new automobiles that limit creativity and innovation in the design and manufacture of automobiles.<\/p>\n

All for the purposes of agreeing with United Nations governmental, intergovernmental, interplanetary statements and beliefs on climate change and global warming. This stuff is… It\u2019s punitive. So the stuff specifically created to battle greenhouse gases is just gonna be reversed and done away with. And they are… I\u2019m telling you, they\u2019re fit to be tied. It\u2019s gonna drive \u2019em even further insane. “Trump will make the announcement during a trip to Michigan, the center of the domestic auto industry. He is expected to frame the action as a way to help auto industry jobs and consumer choice.<\/p>\n

“While automakers and congressional Republicans have pushed hard for the review and rollback, environmentalist [wackos] and consumer advocates say former President Barack Obama\u2019s standards protect the climate while saving consumers money.” They don\u2019t save the consumer money. They\u2019re not designed to save the consumer money! All of this stuff is designed to cost you even more money. That\u2019s the price you have to pay for your role in destroying the planet in the first place! That\u2019s your penance, is agreeing to more government control and agreeing to higher prices. … So Trump\u2019s in Ypsilanti, Michigan. This is where this is gonna be.<\/p>\n
