Wait. Didn't environmentalists demand we use ethanol blends because it was better for the environment?
Ethanol blends increase smog?
I can't keep up with this new fangled 'science'.

A waste of corn and hard on motors. Especially 2-cycle motors.

That ‘waste of corn’ nonsense is something I’ve heard for years and years.
It’s just that, nonsense, he said as he stood beside a mountain of corn.

I bought a new gas powered car this year.
It has yet to see any gasohol, even when refueled at some significant additional expense when away from the compound.

Love Trump.
Hate ethanol in gasoline.

I think quite a few farms in the US are subsidized, Big Time.

OK this is one of the very few example that I can point to that instead of making Trump appear smart. It makes him look really stupid.
We have enough problems with E10. And the subsidies should all end. BTW if you use E15 with small engines then the warranty is automatically void. That is how bad it is.

DJT’s first mistake.
Agree with previous poster......who’s feeding him his info ?
....a kiss to farmers who’ve been temporarily affected with tariffs ? Too soon to sway Iowa voters.

I don't like this, but Trump did support ethanol in the primary. Is there any obvious political motive behind this that could have an affect on the midterms?

I’m ok with this, because this is not a mandate, this is a free-market removal of restrictions.
Anyone who buys E10 or E15 is a fool, but foolishness should not be illegal.

A coordinated “NO ETHANOL!” chant at Trump rallies might be in order.

I know but I find it humorous environmentalists are now the ones complaining about ethanol blends and admitting it increases smog.
