Donald Trump is making his presence known in the White House by switching things up. Now, he is looking to bring back the plastic straw, scrapping the allegedly more eco-friendly paper ones. It's got people talking.

There have been a number of wild claims made by the Great Leader of late. The Gulf of Mexico is now the Gulf of America for some reason, and Trump wants Canada as the 51st state. However, scrapping the plastic straw may just cause a bit of damage.
Donald Trump is famously a fan of Diet Coke, with a button fixed to his desk that summons it. I expect he got sick of poorly designed paper straws going soggy on him. Anyway, now, as a measure to protect the slurping American public, he has reintroduced plastic straws.
"These things don't work, I've had them many times, and on occasion, they break, they explode. If something's hot they don't last very long, like a matter of minutes, sometimes a matter of seconds," Trump said as he signed his new bit of paper. "It's a ridiculous situation so we're going back to plastics."
Plastic Straws Are Trending Again
I remember when the plastic straw issue was fresh. The picture of the turtle with a straw up its nose was everywhere. And, now it's back. The internet has exploded with memes and comments about Trump bringing back the plastic straw.
