Trump Expected To Finalize Rollback Of Clean Water Protections | Velshi & Ruhle | MSNBC
Pretty easy guess on who wins: anyone looking to dump those chemicals.
May Davie and his descendants reap all of the detriments of deregulation.
@RUSSIAN SALAD DRESSING Argh Yes, poor people don’t deserve clean water, they should buy it at $3 per litre, Poor people dont deserve clean air they should purchase their own island. After all what is more important, Seppo Lives or large corporations saving money?
After all around 10,000 of you die a year thanks to the opiate crisis and what was the penalty? What fraction of the profits made? What does that work out to per life? I mean 15 years of pushing the drug, so lets say 100,000 dead directly, and another 40,000 collateral (disease, drug linked crime, child/spouse abuse, suicides, etc) then we have about 3 billion in penalties (no gaol time of course) so a seppo life is worth about $21,000 or a ford festiva.
@Dave Schultz LOL. Yes Far better that your child goes insane and dies before 50 from lead poisoning than Bezo’s stock portfolio diminish.
Will trump stop at nothing to help enrich his friends or him self ?
@RUSSIAN SALAD DRESSING I love the figure of 150 million.
@Debbie Harding Why limit ourselves to humans? Donnie’s proof that we don’t have to.
Hey red state Repug-Bull-KLANs enjoy you toxic coal ash & fertilizer runoff in your drinking water.
You believed Trump & Fox Polit Bureau when they said ALL regulations are bad.
You dumbasses apparently did not understand the definition of ALL REGULATIONS
Now believe Trump & Fox Polit Bureau when they say a Brita water filter will make the water safe
@Jelly Belly
Na, I got meds , I’m just meditating on your extinction, you see I’m karma itself and you are now becoming extinct destroyed by the evil you’ve become…bye bye serpent kunt…bye bye
So this is winning. Well I’m tired of winning.
@Dave Schultz
Your brimstone Pitt is ready, don’t worry
The bottled water industry is thrilled about this rollback.
Check your bottled water, some bottled water is just municipal water moved through a factory. The label will say the source is municipal.
Laura Harris And Canada now wants the closing of aquifers that supply you with bottled water.
Read about that, but NEVER had any reason to BUY water, I have a degree in drinking water =tap water and “Flush/toilet” water and every tap-water is tested usually twice a month, at least once ……………….@Taylor Queensbury
During the press conference, Trump picked up and took a sip out of a water bottle with a label familiar to many of us: Fiji Water. A video of his drinking went viral.
When the right talks about deregulation this is what they do from toxic water to recessions in bank dereg
He is undoing everything Obama did or at least trying!
Amazing how much jealousy is inside that penguin!!
Yes and we need to remind him who he answers to. Vote the imbecile out in 2020!
we all know trump drinks clean water, its about killing Obama’s legacy!
I doubt he drinks anything but diet soda. You can tell by his frizzled brain and slim physique.
It’s just all about Obama. Everything Obama did in 8 years has been destroyed by the orange one.
@Liberalmenarecunts Liberalmenarecunts awww such a sad person you are just like the orange penguin, can’t stand the idea of a black man being better..
Liberalmenarecunts Liberalmenarecunts racist sick when will you think of America as a nation….
You need to get out of your shell for you own sake….Obama made an act to protect the water you drink, and your POTUS is poisoning your water…..what don’t you understand….sicko

Who looks to benefit from the rollback? Or is this another Obama policy that Trump looks to cancel?
Corporations benefit, and of course it’s also just another Obama policy that Trump wants to cancel. Because, ya know, Obama. For the dotard it’s a win-win.
His ego demands that he reverse as many of Obama’s policies, no matter what it does to our citizens! He simply doesn’t care about our people as much he does about his huge ego! 😡
In 75 years, one thing I’ve learned is that whenever there is pressure to degrade the environment, it is ALWAYS from the big financial/ industrial interests. They’re not bad people; screwing the people is just their job. And they are VERY well paid.
That was his only policy: roll back the last eight years, while giving even more to the very rich.
EPA stands for “Environmental Poisoning Administration” under trump’s watch. His brain dead base, and the banana republicans in congress are encouraging and enabling his destruction of the environment by accepting his lies on clean air and water.
Vote trump out in 2020 and start picking the Republicans off one by one,
It is not ranked number 1 in the world? Dumbarse
Only thing America is number one in is electing the stupidest president ever.
It’s not even on the top 10. He lies, lies, lies. And they let him.
@George Layton And prisoners.
Andrew Newman especially when we aren’t
Andrew Newman key word is fantasy
Transport the Flint water to the Whitehouse for them to drink and bath in
@Robyn Hickey , Don’t bother me, I’m watching Tucker Carlson. They talking about Creepy Joe’s Vietnam deferments for asthma. I wonder how he’s doing? Cough, cough.
‘Lil’ Tuckles’, the ‘trust-fund bebe’…is he being verbally spanked by *an actual conservative in England* …again? 😏
“Sad!” 😂
@Robyn Hickey Dave’s a moron, brainwashed by morons. Like Tucker, lol.

Maybe after the deregs kick in Donnie and Davie can contract some asbestos-induced small cell carcinoma That’d tRump asthma, which definitely beats “bone spurs”.
All the crap that this clown is doing is going to have to be reversed yet again when he is voted out of office in 2020. No wonder this country can’t seem to move ahead – forward, backward, forward, backward with every new administration. No long term thinking is possible – is this anyway to run a country? I’m so sick of this crap!
@AndrewTGreen … The blonde baboon won’t give up the throne easily. There are some dark days ahead…
Donnie must’ve gotten his pockets lined real good on this deal!
Soon enough we will get the abomination out of office.
🗳️ 🇺🇸 Nov. 3, 2020 🇺🇸 🗳️
*Take out who Russia Putin!*
Whoever would want to support this are stupid and does not care about their lives. No one wins when your water is not safe for drinking.
This Moron Trump could make more people Love Obama .But He’s too STUPID to know that LOL
I loved Obama long before traitor Trump, the imbecile came on board and started fleecing America.
So its costly but so is living and you cannot live when their killing you all.MURDERER s the Republicans have BECOME.
Because republicans don’t really drink water .. too busy blood sucking the life out of everything in their paths !!
That’s good
Well said!
sharon olsen vampires all
@Sandra Caster EXACTLY !!
Trump is a liar. Clean water in Michigan and New Jersey? Well Trump voters, I hope your water is clean.
