Woke paper straw proponents are losing their minds over MAGA-fueled plastic sipper resurgence
NY Post
They’re grasping for straws.
Devout paper straw enthusiasts are speaking out as public opinion about the environmentally friendly sipper shifts to favor plastic.
Last month, President Donald Trump signed an executive order seeking to reverse former President Joe Biden’s plastic straw ban — and eco-conscious zealots aren’t happy.
“I was just in complete panic,” Karrie Laughton, the co-owner of Roc Paper Straws, told the Wall Street Journal, referring to the day she heard Trump’s remarks.
But she’s no sucker.
Laughton spends a few nights every week hitting back at critics on social media who advocate for plastic, informing haters that the flimsy paper straws are likely made in other countries, whereas hers claim to last 24 hours.
