Excerpt

June 12, 2018, Paper, "President Donald Trump and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Scott Pruitt have pledged to reexamine landmark environmental policies and to repeal regulations. In their view, excessive regulations are harming US industry, and thus reducing regulation will be good for business. As Donald Trump has said, seemingly without irony, 'We are going to get rid of the regulations that are just destroying us. You can’t breathe—you cannot breathe.'"
