As we teeter on the edge of a pandemic I can't help but think of Trump's mindless deregulation

When he signed an executive order to just randomly eliminate regulations with no rhyme or reason, just to simply remove anything in the way of shear greed driven by utter buffoonery. Now here we are, left with an executive branch of government that is an absolute mess and his mindless deregulation did nothing to help the economy but will cost us dearly to repair.

But that sounds conspiratorial.

Gutting programs is certainly a part of his agenda, though. You have to gut a bird before you roast it.

If you want a regulation to be removed consult with the sales team of Ivanka and Jared to determine the amount of money required in campaign donations or money to be spent at his businesses to make it happen.
