GOP Governors In MD, SC, GA Will Now Also Press Shitstain Administration For Oil Drilling Exemptions
EDIT
After allowing Florida to opt out of the plan, Trump is now likely to receive a barrage of requests from GOP governors of other affected states who suddenly feel pressure to ask for exemptions, too.
In South Carolina, Henry McMaster — a diehard Trump ally facing a competitive Republican primary in June — is one such governor. "We cannot afford to take a chance with the beauty, the majesty and the economic value and vitality of our wonderful coastline in South Carolina," McMaster said Wednesday.
In staunchly Democratic Maryland, centrist GOP Gov. Larry Hogan will dispatch his attorney general “to take any legal action necessary against the federal government to prevent this possible exploration,” said a spokeswoman.
And in Georgia, Republican Gov. Nathan Deal broke his silence on the issue with a statement on Wednesday that suggested he too has reservations about Trump’s proposal. "The governor has some concerns with opening up Georgia's pristine coastlines, which he will convey to the congressional delegation," said Jen Ryan, Deal's deputy chief of staff for communications, in a statement to McClatchy.
