        Hate to tell you but it is only going to get worse. With the EPA being paid off by industry there is no telling what kind of poisons and toxins are going to be unleashed on us. Isn't winning great? #DrainTheTrumpSwamp #QuitDrinkingTheKoolAid #SupportPremierTrump

        Heh it’s ok; reported yesterday that EPA was allowing it again in Construction. Seems to the average person we’ve gone completely insane...what happened to valuing human lives?

        EPA has chemical industry dictating policy. After you have a few billion it just isn’t enough. #powercorrupts

        Asbestos is a carcinogen! Fact! Lawyers are representing people who died from this & won! Trump is a mentally I'll person! I wouldn't be surprised if Trump Tower was built with asbestos! Victims are on a long line to sue for contracting cancer! No asbestos!
