All of these things are completely anti and opposite of the Left-wing energy agenda of renewable and "sustainable" energy. The Liberal thought process which has 1) driven the auto industry to abandon the normally-aspirated internal combustion engine, 2) driven the auto industry to downsize engine displacement, which has lead to a plethora of turbo 4-cylinder 2.0L engines, 3) resolution of the German Parliament to ban the internal combustion engine essentially by the year 2030, and 4) eventually will kill the beautiful BMW in-line 6.

Donald Trump is our best hope for saving the internal combustion engine that we all so love and admire. (My good thought for my essay).
