President Trump made a bold statement against eco-friendly paper straws promoted by his predecessor Joe Biden. He pledged that the United States would return to plastic ones. This move is part of his latest action on green issues since returning to power. The Republican administration also sought to block funding for a network of electric-vehicle charging stations across the country, sparking fury from environmentalists. However, Trump promised to end the ridiculous Biden push for Paper Straws, which don't work. Instead, he wants the nation to go back to using plastic. Democrat Biden announced a target to eliminate single-use plastic utensils like drinking straws by 2035 across government agencies. The trend for paper drinking straws has long irritated Trump. He said during a campaign rally in the 2020 election against Biden that they want to ban straws. He further stated, Has anyone tried those paper straws? They're not working too good. Furthermore, he added, It disintegrates as you drink it, and if you have a nice tie like this tie, you've got no choice. Trump's campaign team previously sold branded plastic straws with the slogan Liberal paper straws don't work. The president, who calls climate change a scam, has also often targeted electric vehicles despite his close alliance with Tesla chief Elon Musk. Halting the rollout of the $5 billion national EV charging network would be a major setback to efforts to cut climate-changing emissions, according to green campaigners. His administration's move to block funding for a bipartisan effort to build out our national EV charging network is a blatant, illegal power grab, the Evergreen Action group said. This program is delivering real benefits to all 50 states — creating jobs, boosting economic opportunities, and cutting pollution.
