Default President Trump has brought back Plastic Straws

It was pointed out on
John Stewart Daily Show just now
on Comedy Central HD.


John agreed with President Trump, on this
saying he hates the Paper
ones that melt in your mouth.

I'll happily admit to being a tree-hugging wanker ... but the paper ones are awful. If I have a McChav milkshake I go through about three, they just disintegrate.

I always found the reasoning slightly odd to be fair - I understand the reason for not allowing them in terms of marine biology, but the solution being "make the straws out of something else" rather than... err... maybe... stop putting garbage into the ocean ... seems a little strange.

That said I imagine the US will go back to plastic straws and continue putting the garbage into the ocean.
