I don't trust the current administration to not screw up regulation and oversight over such "advanced nuclear technology". Come to think of it, I don't even trust them to not screw up an NDA to a porn star...

The current administration will be gone in a few years, and will be a lame-duck administration by November, so it's they're not really going to have a long-term impact on it. America needs to replace all it's coal and gas plants immediately with non-carbon energy, as well as replacing all gasoline/diesel vehicles with electric ones. This should happen sooner rather than later. Electric car tech is completely ready to go, and all cars can be electric by the next model cycle, which normally takes about 6-8 years of development time. And then we have to be able to remove the released carbon from the atmosphere once we convert to non-carbon energy, which is another project...

    Not totally sure what they meant by that but in fairness the Trump administration has had a tremendously high turnover and there's a great deal of important positions left open in the government because the Trump administration either hasn't appointed anyone for the job or Congress didn't confirm that appointment. They might also be implying that we'll be saluting president Pence after the Mueller investigation is over.
