They are already at risk, so it's more likely he could make it a certainty they will fail.
Trump is a sociopath, so he doesn't give a shit. People who can't see that, are probably sociopaths themselves, or EXTREMELY stupid or misinformed.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Living in a small rural area, you can drive around and see the orange mobster's signs in yards of people that you recognize as crooks, drunks, meth-heads, (especially meth-heads) and the "poorly educated.
“I love the poorly educated.” -Guess who
The motto of the GOP.
Well, which candidate do you think they're most similar to on a personal level? I won't say that's crazy. Him being in power isn't going to do them any particular favors any more than he will anyone else in the country, but it's not weird if something about him resonates with them.
Could? He already did a lot of damage to them when he was president. Of course he'll try to do more damage if he has another term.
Does nobody writing articles remember his time as president?
It doesn't matter if Trump wins or Biden wins or heck if even Kennedy wins. The climate change has already reached the no turning back point. We are no longer dealing with scenarios trying to get things back to a natural curve. We're now trying to figure out how to deal with some vs lots of consequences.
The time to care was a long time ago. Now is the time to figure out how to live with the consequences of others inaction.
As usual XKCD has one of the better infographics on the subject.
That's because we're VERY CLEARLY already on track!
Yes, US needs to vote for a Green Party. Joe Biden approved oil drilling project last year despite the usual lies that he cares for the environment. Until there is a real change in politics, there will be no real effort in climate change.
Least newsworthy thing I've seen in a while.
Reminding people what's at stake is never a bad thing
Bah. Nobody needs reminding.
Trump supporters see rolling back climate restrictions favorably. Everyone else has more pressing concerns.
Pretty sure the lines are drawn at this point.
