President Donald Trump has set his sights on banning paper straws with a new executive order. He is advocating for a return to plastic straws despite environmental concerns.

Trump has expressed his frustration with President Biden’s decision to phase out plastic straws, calling it absurd. The reversal of this decision has been well received, with many, including fast food businesses, expressing relief at the return to plastic options.

In recent years, major fast food chains like McDonald’s have adopted paper straws, which has led to significant dissatisfaction among customers who preferred the durability of plastic.

Trump has announced plans to sign the executive order next week, seeking to dismantle what he describes as the impractical push for paper straws initiated by Biden. He criticized paper straws for failing to function effectively, dismissing the idea as impractical.

The former President shared his intentions on his Truth Social platform, emphasizing his longstanding desire to reverse the plastic straw ban implemented by the Biden administration.

Trump’s preference for plastic over paper straws reflects a broader debate about environmental policies and consumer convenience, raising discussions on sustainability and practical usage in everyday life.
