27. Trump does these things "because I can"
Sun Dec 14, 2025, 12:08 PM
Sunday

Billionaires do it for the $$$ - and we know “too much is never enough”

MAGAts do it because they are racist

Christian Nationalists do it because Jesus is coming again. When the last tree is cut down, the last ocean polluted, and the last resource depleted, then Jesus will show-up and “create a new heaven and a new earth.” No need, therefore, for clean energy and conservation.
