    Asbestos is banned in dozens of countries, and for decades, its use has been heavily restricted in the united States. The EPA proposed a rule that may allow a number of new products to contain asbestos. @annawerner reporting. https://cbsn.ws/2vtbxyz pic.twitter.com/U5qnJfRFiC

        Trump is exactly like asbestos to the GOP. They know he is harmful to the country but they are too afraid to touch him. It's costly to remove him, so instead of doing what's right, they've decided to ignore him, putting everyone at risk of cancer. #TrumpIsAsbestos

        In all honesty, I can’t imagine any American company willing to take the liability at this point. @realDonaldTrump is delusional to believe asbestos is safe on any level to used around the public. I still think America is smarter than this. #MAGA #DumpTrump

        Do we really need to come up with news ways for companies to profit from the sickness and deaths of others?

        Seriously... I feel like this was a joke the asbestos lobby is pulling as part of a dare... "hay bob... I bet we can bribe the administration to let us sell this shit to consumers again"..... "Holy shit.... they may just go for it... pay up bob"....

        There is no reason to expose Americans to this. When there was a recent steam pipe burst in Manhattan, they told residents to close their windows because of the asbestos concerns. PD/FD were sprayed off at the scene this stuff is so dangerous. This is MAGA? Really?
