Spending a minute or two on a search I see that, on the basis of his likely environmental policies, he's been endorsed by Andrew Wheeler, formerly of the EPA (https://www.ontheissues.org/domestic/JD_Vance_Environment.ht...). Let's see what he was up to while he was on the EPA: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_R._Wheeler#EPA_administ...

What do you know, slashing a bunch of environmental regulations.

Did you come across this in your efforts to figure out how someone could possibly believe Vance would support deregulation on the environment?



That's the best you've got? He was endorsed by someone formerly from an agency that has nothing to do with the US Department of Transportation that regulates trains? That's literally the Bad Guy on team Bad Guys makes Bad Things happen argument I already gave.

If you'd dug even a little you'd see that the classification of these trains at a lower hazard level than probably warranted dates back at least to the Obama administration and probably further. So again, what does this have to do with JD Vance other than the steel man argument I already gave?


No, the point was it took me minutes to find and you didn't really care to find an answer as much as you pretended.


But you didn’t find anything other that Vance is on Team Bad Guy? Thank you for helping prove the strength of my steel man.
