Can Trump take credit for the Green New Deal? - robkelk - 02-19-2019
I thought for a while about posting this one, because the article itself isn't up to my usual standards of objectivity. However, the base premise appears sound.
CBC Analysis: Why Trump can take credit for his opponents' Green New Deal
tl;dr: By abandoning this issue (and apparently denying that it exists), Trump "has handed the Democrats carte blanche on the issue". (The article makes its point, then goes on to talk as if the Democrats being elected in 2020 is a done deal.)
