This shouldn't surprise anyone. The guy loves coal, oil, and gas, he hates anything renewable with almost the same passion as he hates immigrants. He will literally defund the EPA because in his mind the environment is fake news and because it will make him popular amongst rich business owners who get even richer from deregulation.

Not to mention that Harold Hamm, the oil magnate, is one of Trump’s largest donors.
