I bet Bozos is absolutely livid about not "investing" in a presidency. He can brag about his yachts all he wants but can he say he bought a president? NoOoOo!
Most average residential streets probably dont have enough power to charge an EV on every address simultaneously.

I'm not saying you are wrong, but this sounds very much like a statement made definitively because it sounds like it might be true but has no particular basis in fact. I'd like to know if you have those facts.
There are some key points that really matter here:
What method was used to select the "1002 adults nationwide"? This is not described. Was it people with landlines that skew heavily older and conservative? Was it an even mix of blue and red states? IOW, was it even really random? I could not find this information anywhere.
This polling was conducted by an outfit named "Public Opinion Strategies" (appropriately, POS). Since we apparently can't know what sampling method was used (please! correct me if I'm wrong), we can maybe derive something from the either the organization doing the polling or the data itself.
2a: The data shows a slight shift to identifying as Republican (42/39). Anecdotally we can maybe surmise that people who say they are "strictly independent" may lean right-wing. Other demographic info suggests a slight bias toward older and less educated.
2b: In 2024 POS has been heavily used by Republicans. You can find this data on Open Secrets. Basically every single entity that gave them money that I looked up is Republican.
So, tl;dr until any poll can tell me their methodology and confirm that their sampling is truly random I'm just going to laugh at the "conclusions" made by the media.
You are overlooking the pollution the emit while running, which is considerable, especially 2-stroke ones. A gas leaf blower used for an hour emits the same air pollution as driving 1,100 miles (source).
And the fact that that oil has to be changed periodically. They also have many plastic parts AND small engines have a notoriously high failure rate when used with ethanol fuels.
Meanwhile, the electric motors in battery ones basically run forever and properly cared for the batteries last many years, after which they can be recycled.
It's a bullying tactic straight out of elementary school. Trump knows they will suck up to him and shower him with donations and more importantly fan his ego. He doesn't give a crap about what happens because of the tariffs (obviously) since he can just blame other people.
