Trump prepares to withdraw from Paris climate agreement, NYT reports

well.... 'Paris', and before that 'Kyoto', plus 28-and-counting COPs don't seem to have improved anything, so....

Yup. There will be no complaining from Florida or Texass residents about the severity of hurricanes I also hear.

Are you suggesting something unconstitutional?

Is there any way to speed up the transition process? We have to put up with another two months of the dementia patient.

Great news, it's about time.

Excellent news. The Paris Accord is a sham, even those who believe in the so-called ‘climate crisis’ ought to admit that. Fantastic to have a climate realist in power again. Hopefully, there is still time for the horrendous damage of lunatic ‘green’ policies to be stopped and sanity restored.

Peter14,I usually do not agree with you,but I give you credit,were credit due,you are spot on by insane Trump

Yes, golden age.

in a landslide, which gives a mandate.

dude was elected President like 2 days ago and already a dozen positive developments.

a new golden era for America.

Like a blind man, you just cant see. You wont even be aware how far backwards your country sinks and how much worse of you'll be.

He conned the nation to re-elect him based on Americans paying higher taxes on imports by calling them "tariffs", and the dismantling of democracy by calling it a swamp. He puts the man who wrecked Twitter in charge of wrecking civil services in America by cutting funding so it just cant function. Again makes America a climate change denier and pariah.

And some call this a golden age? So damn funny that by the time they wake up to all the damage it will be too late to stop the destruction. Enjoy your golden age, cause Trumps about to kill it and make your lives hell.

9 years.......We can do better.

Even more great news.

@Peter14 The USA produces top notch science. Also the USA produces some of the most ignorant politicians imaginable.

RIP Planet Earth

Victim to right-wing politics and corporate greed.

It's the right move. He did it before, of course he'll do it again.

US, were in.

Next President, were out.

Next President, We are back in.

Next President, We are out again.

Next President, ?? Probably back in again, if Trump hasn't killed democracy and rigged all future elections in the Russian model of democracy that is.

Quelle surprise
