This is descending into parody. Now Trump is repealing food safety regulations in the poultry industry because – you guessed it – the Obama administration had imposed them:
Citing President Donald Trump's calls for deregulation, Republican lawmakers and the chicken industry are aggressively lobbying to speed up poultry inspection lines — a change the Obama administration had rejected after warnings it would endanger workers and increase food contamination.
The National Chicken Council has asked the USDA to allow poultry plants participating in a new inspection system to operate "at any line speed" they can safely handle, freeing them from the 140 birds-per-minute limit that the Obama administration had established for most plants.
The country is run by a vindictive brat who doesn’t care about harming his citizens so long as he can stick it to the Black guy. Next thing we know, Trump’ll hear that Obama also passed road safety laws and he’ll rush to abolish seatbelts or something.
