Trump Signs Another Executive Order to Further Slash Regulations

http://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/trump-signs-another-executive-order-further-slash-regulations-n725296

America's First Asshole wants to cut regulations by 75%.

In the article, the shit-bag says: "We're going to put the regulation industry out of work and out of business."

I wonder where the conservative outrage is on First Fuck's pledge to put people out of work and out of business?

Remember Sec. Clinton's comment about putting coal miners out of work (as a rhetorical flourish, meaning to transition from dirty to clean energy sources)? Remember the cons' outrage? Where is that now?

America is basically done, folks. The experiment has run its course. Lot's of successes, but ultimately Republicans found a way to engineer the founders' elegant algorithm to gain absolute power...and beat us thinking people over the head with it.

It's gonna get bad.

That is, no one cared about heroin addiction when it was just the poor and minorities that used heroin. Then, only after the boom in opiod prescriptions and abuse that lead to upper middle class and rich white people becoming addicted to heroin did government and media take notice. Thus, it will take the upper middle class and the wealthy start having their water supply poisoned and their jobs loss due to deregulation for them to start fighting back against the deregulation.
