About this episode
POLITICO Energy host Josh Siegel talks with Andrew Wheeler, Donald Trump's former Environmental Protection Agency chief, in today’s extended episode. They discuss what a second Trump administration would look like in terms of energy policy, why he thinks several of Biden’s climate rules aren’t likely to last, and if Wheeler is ready to take back his old job if his former boss wins the White House in November.
