Will America survive Trump?

[wesmoorenerd]

We will survive but this is a giant leap back. All progress made over at least the last decade or two will have to be remade.  And there will be no significant scientific or cultural advances until there is an administration committed to such. Trump would be happy if we returned to the America of the 60s or earlier. There is no forward thinking with the GOP as it is today.

Mate, according to that very article Trump proposed cutting the budgets of a good number of those organizations. Either way, it's undeniable that Trump's climate change denying GOP is anti-science.
