Polluter in Chief Trump has been the most devastating President to the environment in history. Just recently he approved drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. This despite the fact that we are already the leading oil producer in the world. He cares nothing about long term effects. Just give the economy a boost to get re-elected!

Obama also laughed off the poor people in Flint that were being poisoned by the water contamination. He is on video laughing at poor blacks that were gravely Sick and acted like that was a hoax.

No, it's not a FACT! You're trying to equate an accidental spill to the opening up of national parks to drilling. Obama/Biden's EPA did not cause the spill. Trump is the cause of drilling in the national parks.Obama/Biden’s EPA did more devastation to our environment than any other administration in History. FACT.

This opening would effect .02% of the park if it is ever even drilled at all. You are right that he has led us to become the world's leading energy producer and as such drilling in Alaska may be so tedious and costly as to not make it effective or necessary.

Great to see you back in action Tuna Man.
After 3 yrs. in office, The Trump admin. has sought to reverse more than 100 major environmental rules that it deemed burdensome to the fossil fuel industry!
Have you taken advantage stock wise of these things? Steel and fossil fuel stocks have been good to a lot of people while he's been in office. I've taken advantage of it but still can see the possible damages environmentally his policies have created. Moral of the story is it's ok to complain about his policies and profit from it until the regulations change. Capitalism is a helluva drug.
Accidental due to mass incompetence which was the norm for Biden Obama administration. So because it’s a so called accident means they didn’t cause it?? GTFOH. They absolutely caused it and caused one of the worst environmental disasters in American history you bafoon. Obama laughed at the black residents in flint who were deathly ill from water contamination that the Obama EPA tried to cover up. He held a glass of water and toasted them right to there face as if to say their complaints regarding the drinking water were a hoax. What a disgrace Obama was!!!
President Trump has led us to become the world leader in energy not reliant on middle eastern oil which benefits the USA greatly and will continue to do so for the next 100years. Even as all you global warmist environmental nuts keep screeming the world is going to end. Cleanest water and cleanest air on the planet in the USA..
The spill was caused an EPA contractor so you can't say "they absolutely caused it, though they could be held indirectly responsible as it was under their watch. "you bafoon"? If you must resort to name-calling at least learn how to spell the word correctly, otherwise, you're only showing your illiteracy. The word or trying to use is "buffoon"!
Libs prefer that we buy from middle east so we can pay for the bombs to kill our service members.
If you were vaguely educated on the issue, you'd know we buy a vast majority of our imported oil from Canada.
What does "Liberal" have to do with it? Do we really need drilling rigs erected in a national wildlife refuge? We're already the world leader in oil production. Why would anyone want to pollute our national parks?

What is the .02%of the park you're referring to? The actual land on which the rigs would be erected? They would create an eyesore. Who wants to visit a national park and see drilling rigs? Absurd idea and totally unnecessary!
An area of 8.5M acres and drilling would be on no more than 10k of them under heavy restrictions, this is like saying the Louvre would be ruined if they removed one obscure painting from the storage closet. By the way that park sees an average of less than 10k visitors every year, so if they can't manage to make due with 8.49M acres they can **** off. Energy independence for the next 50 years is far more important.
They are not creating a refinery there it is being allowed as a potential drilling site. It's not like you are going to have endless clouds of billowing smoke like LA. This is something that virtually no one except the people working there would even know was happening.
Being an Alaskan I can speak to this topic:
First, it is NOT a national park, it is a national refuge - big difference.
Secondly, it IS a very small part of the refuge.
Third, the presence of drilling equipment and platforms do not bother the protected caribou herd. That herd wanders all over the arctic, including the North Slope where there is current drilling and work. The caribou LOVE the platforms! They climb UP on them and lay to sun themselves and to get away from the trillions of bugs in the tundra. While I have not seen this personally, during my 26 years of living in Alaska, I have been told these stories firsthand from friend and family who do work up there. AND, I have seen the personal photographs of the caribou sunning themselves taken by said family and friends.
Fourth, most Alaskans ARE in favor of opening up to drilling.
This destructive plan would sell off one of America's last great wildlands to the highest bidder, offering up almost the entire 1.5 million acre coastal plain for fossil fuels development, including huge expanses of federally designated critical habitat for polar bears, caribou, wolves, arctic foxes and many other wildlife species. Legislation seeking to open the area to oil and gas development had been defeated for decades as Americans and congressional mem bers have long recognized the value of preserving this area from development. In 2017, drilling was authorized under the pretext of generating revenue to offset the $1trillion cost of the "Tax Cuts and Jobs Act", circumventing full and fair congressional debate on the question. The coastal plain, where exploration and drilling would occur is the biological heart of the refuge. Fossil fuel development would destroy the wilderness character and wildlife values turning it into an industrial oilfield and threatening the species that depend on it. A pristine area would be turned into a man-made spiderweb of pipelines, airstrips, drill rigs, roads, gravel mines, buildings and other infrastructure. Fracking is what has made America the top oil producer in the world. Leave the refuge as pristine as it is now! There's nowhere like it in the US and very few places like it left in the world!

The opening of the refuge is favored by some Alaskans who fear an economic crunch from the pandemic but to the indigenous inhabitants of the area the idea of making a short-term monetary gain from the loss of species, a homeland and a way of life is devastating. Most don't realize that the short term benefits won't outweigh the long term consequences!

Wait till they drill off the coasts of Florida and you have an oil spill. Beaches will look great.
