Trump signs executive order to bring back plastic straws

    Trump signs executive order to bring back plastic straws

    On February 7, 2025, President Donald Trump announced he would sign an executive order to bring back plastic straws, reversing President Biden's push for paper straws. Trump called the move "ridiculous" and said paper straws don't work. A day later, he posted again, declaring Biden's ban on plastic straws "dead" and encouraging people to enjoy drinks without the dissolving paper straws. This comes after Trump revoked Biden's security clearances, claiming Biden couldn't be trusted with classified information. Trump's recent actions seem to be part of his ongoing rivalry with Biden, intensifying since Biden took office on January 20, 2021.
