"I don't think that plastic's going to affect a shark very much ... as they're munching their way through the ocean." President Trump signs an executive order directing the government to start using plastic straws again, adding that paper straws "don't work."

What an absolute moron this man is.

I'm still amazed that I am living through this place in time! MAGA!!

Obama created the USDS in 2014 without congressional approval. The Dems were silent about this and didnt claim he didnt have the authority to do so. Wired even wrote an article in 2018 praising the fact is survived Trumps first admin. In 2025, Trump renamed it to DOGE.

We the people stand with President Trump

An executive order to replace paper straws with plastic straws! He’s just trolling the left… 🤣🤣🤣

This was the Last Straw

Neither plastic nor paper straws should be dumped in the ocean. Stop that instead.

This alone was worth electing him

based trump. paper straws are literally 1984. finally someone addressing the real issues facing our democracy - my milkshake game's been suffering

If people are against plastic straws, don't use them. Better yet, don't use straws at all. ....but don't ban all plastic straws.

That quote is why the left hates him. Rather than carefully curate every comment he says what he thinks is common sense. Meanwhile I'm sure many fighters for shark rights have now been triggered and will spend the rest of the month in the basement, trembling at his callousness.
