    of the type we're now seeing in Houston. The Arkema plant in Crosby, TX, is currently burning out of control and may gigantically explode.

    Well, Trump was "lobbied", you see,.... well, let's just cut out the euphemism and call it what is really is.... BRIBED by Arkema and its American Chemical Council to delay new Obama safety rules that might have already gone into effect.

    What else has Trump irresponsibly killed? New Obama measures that would require better flood standards and protections for new construction in flood plains in order to receive National Flood Protection consideration. All for bribes.

    The ugliness of Republican anti-environmentalism for all the world to see.

    Environmentalism costs jobs, you say? Well, here's a concept lost on Republican voters: clean ups usually cost more than prevention.

    He doesnt know. CNN said it so he believes it. He probably doesnt have a clue about the industry.
