I'm glad to see Trump's proposed rollback of auto pollution regulations blowing up in his face. It is pretty astonishing to see an industry telling the federal government that they welcome more regulation. Not to mention that no consumer, regardless of political affiliation, would turn down better gas mileage. I quite enjoy watching California bully Trump on this front and seemingly win.

Together, the six manufacturers who so far plan not to adhere to the new Trump rules account for more than 40 percent of all cars sold in the United States.

“You get to a point where, if enough companies are with California, then what the Trump administration is doing is moot,” said Alan Krupnick, an economist with Resources for the Future, a nonpartisan energy and environment research organization.

Changing the regulations is all part of his larger plan to accelerate climate change so that Greenland keeps melting away and has to be sold.
