Should been way more drastic in his climate policy way before. All national parks and sea bed sanctuaries are now oil fields. Flee the south. Any chance of stopping the literal rasing tides is now dead. Add in the upcoming trade deals and you better start stock piling food as well. Also anyone under 30 should probably cripple themselves in some way as project 2025 calls for mass conscription, because as we become more isolationist we'll need to invade central and South America countries to feed our people. The US military currently doesn't have the man power to do a large scale invasion so buckle up buckaroo.
Id argue the last few points.

You can feed yourselves, but it won't be meat.
-
you do have the manpower.
We've invaded countries for their bananas.
Yeah, not a meat.
Did you invade or destabilize a government?
My point is we did that for a none meat. You don't think we'll take over a foreign country in order to turn their land into stock yards, feed lots, and pastures? The majority of conservative Americans get the majority of their calories from meat. Good luck getting people who would turn their own daughters and sisters into brood sows for the wealthy oligarchy, to think foreign brown people have any rights.
Technically, instead of bananas it could be feed crops.
