Thanks for the little bit of science that says this won't happen. It makes me feel better.

I'm just hopeful enough that 'If you do this, you stand a very very good chance of completely destroying a national monument.' is enough to get at least a few of the less-nutty Republicans to balk.

If nothing else, we love our monuments and symbols, and destroying one to put his face on it is proooobbbbaaaallllllly too far, still.

Oh it doesn't mean it won't happen, they're just as likely to fuck up the whole thing by trying it anyway.
We can obviously listen to the science of it and know it won't work, but they don't believe in science.

Yeah I'm surprised nobody said this before. That was exactly my first thought. When has something not being practical or helpful stopped Trump and his minions?
