We need to talk about Scott Pruitt
Seriously, just think about the money that could be made by pumping Trump full of stories of unfair trade practices in the steel industry. Buy American companies and short European ones right before his "executive time" on the toilet the next morning when he fires off an irrational tweet about impending steel tariffs.

Donald Trump 2018
And now the administration has pre-existing conditions in its crosshairs. Don't think about switching jobs or insurance companies in the future guys. Keep that nose to the grindstone just where you are now. Know your place. https://gizmodo.com/trump-regime-says-obamacare-shouldnt-protect-people-wit-1826662463 According to the article even 59% of Republicans support protection for people with pre-existing conditions. But I suspect those low level R's aren't donating enough to make their voice heard.

"9. Promote the Auto Industry"? Most of the others at least touch on questions of the the environment, even if they are on the wrong side of the argument IMHO. But #9? How is that even remotely related to the charter of the agency?

Trump's Trade War
He's already raised taxes on the blue states for a good portion of the populace. Why not take a dump on them again? Teach them who to vote for!

Jimmy Carter honorably served his country in the military. Trump cried about his bone spurs to avoid doing just that, even though he crows about what a great athlete he was in his youth. Carter in his prime could have knocked Trump to the mat, as could most Presidents. Hell, I'd wager FDR could give Trump some trouble.

The Robert Mueller Investigation
States cut funding for education over the years and tuition skyrockets. The US has perhaps the most "free market" healthcare system in the developed western world and yet we have by far the highest healthcare costs based on GDP. I agree that gov't can really waste money. In the private sector they don't call it waste, they call it profit. Regardless of the term, it's money out of peoples' pockets.

Iran
We'll just "take" their oil, you know, like we can load it up in Humvees as we're leaving.

The fact that Iran even considered buying US planes now surprised me. If Iran ever considers buying US planes again in the future would absolutely shock me. Another long term customer for Airbus and others. MAGA!

Say something good about the Trump presidency. I’m serious.
Keystone pipeline moved forward? Going to be more difficult to shut it down when functional that it was to thwart it in the development stages.

CA I believe is the largest car market in the US. In addition about a dozen other states have voluntarily latched onto the CA standards making it a defacto standard for most of the country's citizens. What Detroit does not want is to have to create two versions of every model in the US. Since two versions is not an economic option, they can either 1.) make every car in the US adhere to the CA standard or 2.) lobby their new lap dogs in government to do their bidding. Perhaps the automotive industry submitted an "action plan" to the government.

Does it bother me that the government simply tells ISP's to treat all content equally? No, that does not bother me in the slightest bit. Does it bother you all of the big corporations that want to charge more for access to some content than other content? Or even more egregious, to throttle or potentially block content altogether for strategic or monetary gain? And NN doesn't allow an ISP to charge more for a person who "streams 100% of their TV through the Internet". It does allow them to charge more for a person who streams more GB of data, regardless of where that comes from. Without NN it would be well within say Comcast's right to throttle your DirecTV Now stream for "technical reasons" even if the amount of data is well below your contracted rate. Would that bother you?- Trump kicks out 60 Russian diplomats in response to UK attack
