“Next week I'll sign an executive order and end Biden's incredible paper straw push, but that won't work. Back to plastic!” Trump wrote in the Truth Social Post on Friday morning.
The Biden administration has focused on phased out plastic straws across the federal government over the next decade.
Trump first blows up a paper straw in 2020 and “collapsed” very quickly.
He also claimed that more COVID-19 face masks have been found in the ocean than plastic straws and are more toxically consumed by marine organisms than plastic straws, but he also acknowledged that fact. No one tried to point it or ban facial masks. straw.
“Have anyone tried those paper straws? They're not working too well,” Trump previously said.
Additionally, Trump was selling his own brand of plastic straws during his 2020 campaign, selling the miserable needs of straws because “liberal paper straws don't work.”
Like former President Biden, former vice president Kamala Harris also supported the ban on plastic straws during the 2020 campaign, saying that “plastics need to be banned.”
The revival of plastic in straws is seen as a victory for Trump allies in the energy sector. Plastics are manufactured using oil and gas, which stimulates the American economy, a key sector of revival that the Trump administration focuses on.
