CAFE is genetic

It makes all auto genera look alike.

“will kill hundreds more Americans a year through dirtier air, compared to the Obama Standards”

Now that sets a new standard for MSM BS. AP has really upped their game.

As he should be doing.

The market is going to take care of this shortly. John Goodenough just invented a superior solid-state glass battery that blows away anything on the market.

This innovation will likely be the end of the internal combustion engine for passenger automobiles.

John Goodenough isn’t just some nobody - he’s the 97 year old nobel prize winner who already gave us Lithium Ion battery technology as well as RAM (Random Access Memory).

This innovation should make electric vehicles so much more cost effective, efficient and reliable than ICE cars that nobody will want a gasoline/diesel/LPG powered car again.

Get rid of CAFE standards, national standardized concealed carry laws, along with mandatory seat belt laws, and helmet laws for adults.

So supposing the new cleaner standard will save 1000’s of lives the spending trillions will be worth it, right?

Sorry, AP, but I like my presidents to be intelligent, capable leaders, and real men or real ladies. Dorkbama the Muslim eunuch quota baby (your hero) was none of those. And none exist in your universe of liberal candidates.

Partner, "The America Hating Piece of Work Obama" wanted this country to go under and he failed to bring this country down, but he sure came close to his goals.

It will take a very long time to get that smell out of my nose. Obama was an anchor to the DemonRat party and the MSM just loved him since he was our POTUS even though he was never eligible or qualified to be our POTUS.

just needs 10 wheel drive, a crawl gear, and a 20” lift with tractor tires... and then it would be perfection...

"Hmmm no Hawaii or Alaska?"

NO Kali or Nu Yawk.

Somehow, I think we could do well without them. Kali's tree hugger laws killed American industry. They demonstrated that thieves could get rich in government, if they could pass onerous, illegal regulations, that sounded good on paper, and then charge customers to ignore or enforce them, depending on what was more profitable.

Gutting Obama policies? Great. Only one thing better than that. Ah, you figure it out.

Trump administration’s latest proposal show a 1.5% annual increase, backing off from its initial proposal simply to stop mandating increases in fuel efficiency after 2020.

DAMN IT! Stop the annual increases. We caved to the rabid enviro-kooks yet again. So now it takes 3 years to get the increase they wanted in 1 year. That is not a win.
