I don't know, Trump says he is going to burn more coal and he says he is going to delay CAFE stds which will burn more gasoline.

A lot of people are trying to undermine Trump but it is no secret how much money the fossil fuel industry gives mainly to republicans.

That's the bad news. If by 2050 the USA is burning only half as much fossil fuel as is being burned now, then it would follow that the GOP would be receiving only half as much money as they receive now.

“If by 2050 the USA is burning only half as much fossil fuel as is being burned now, then it would follow that the GOP would be receiving only half as much money as they receive now.”

Well, I for one am not going to make conclusions based on whether oil executives or GOP politicians stand to benefit. Most of them will be dead or moribund by 2050, anyway.
