So when one of the Trump teams' first acts after the election was publishing on GreatAgain.gov a manifesto on reversing the Obama-era course of American environmental policy, no one was surprised.
The then-president-elect's website promised to "end the war on coal," eliminate a number of "highly invasive" Obama administration environmental rules, and create an environmental agenda "guided by true specialists in conservation, not those with radical political agendas."

Here's where, on February 24, 2017, Trump stands on the environment:
