    You mean the Trump that’s responsible for the brain drain in the US because he declared war on science and scientists? The guy that hired conspiracy theorists and fox News anchors for high regime positions and a health minister who’s into roadkill penisses, brain worms and swimming in feces while claiming paracetamol causes autism and vaccinations are bad?

    Yeah, I bet he’ll be the inventor of the Idiocracy time machine. Unless that ride requires magnets.

    I’m sure he could, but it would be in Europe away from him and his science denying flat earth believing pals.

    the article seems pretty partisan and populist. selectively chooses facts for discredit while omitting any admission of credibility. does not address the problems or issues with a proposed solution. lots of suspicion, unfair assumptions about motives, and irrelevantly keeps tieing back to the trump administration. the highly partisan angle seems to discredit arstechnica as an intelligent unpreferential information source for productive discussion.

    The report also seems not to realize that it is being written by the Trump administration.

    There are a few delightful digs like this in this article.

    The only thing that’s golden is the tacky veneer on the White House walls in the picture.

    Trump’s understanding of science is on a par with that of Flat Earth and Hollow Earth believers. It’s hard to foster what you don’t understand.
