American Politics

Face it the only way that California could go independent is if they did a UDI like Rhodesia did and hope that President Trump gets enough pressure on him not to use military force against fellow Americans

Greg Gianforte (R) just won the special election i Montana. He's also known as the guy who hit a journalist for asking a question that annoyed him, and he has some very interesting views:

[Va-Va-Voom]

Trump withdraws the US from the Paris Climate agreement.

He essentially just said "f**k the world".

[LMAO]

Musk refuses to go down with Trump's sinking ship since Musk has his rockets. Even the Disney CEO is abandoning Trump's Council, but there comes a point where enough is enough.

At least states, cities, and companies are saying, "f**k you," to Trump:

I don't understand the absolute lack of critical thinking from the Dunce-in-Chief. Even Exxon and Conoco support the Paris Accord ffs

Syria is in the middle of a civil war, and Nicaragua thinks the agreement isn't strict enough. Imagine a world where the U.S.—not North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, or some bullshit like that—is the only country with a shitty ass reason to back out

At least a new President can reverse this decision in 2021 before the U.S. officially backs out *crosses fingers hoping 30% aren't dumb enough to vote for Trump again in 2020 but knows most will be le sigh*

sorry but his paris accord wasn't good for the U.S.

The Paris climate accord is simply the latest example of Washington entering an agreement that disadvantages the U.S., leaving American workers who I love and taxpayers to absorb the cost in terms of lost jobs and lower wages and vastly diminished economic production. Thus, as of today, the U.S. will cease all implementation of the non-binding Paris accord and the draconian and financial economic burdens the agreement imposes on our country.

This includes ending the implementation of the Nationally Determined Contribution and, very importantly, the Green Climate Fund, which is costing the U.S. a vast fortune.

Compliance with the terms of the Paris Accord and the onerous energy restrictions it has placed on the United States could cost America as much as 2.7 million lost jobs by 2025 according to the National Economic Research Associates. This includes 440,000 fewer manufacturing jobs -- not what we need -- believe me, this is not what we need -- including automobile jobs, and the further decimation of vital American industries on which countless communities rely. They rely for so much, and we would be giving them so little

-- Trump

this accord is better for other countries than for the U.S. period. it's a redistribution of wealth from the U.S. to those other countries. plus, trump backed out, yes, but said their are going to be negotiations to make it a deal that is fair to the U.S.

I don't see how this is a bad decision. oh sure, it surely sounds bad because the media wants to paint this as trump not caring about the worlds climate, etc. that's a bunch of hog wash.

as the wall street journal said

The reality is that withdrawing is in America's economic interest and won't matter much to the climate.

in addition to all this, the U.S. still has some of the most stringent emission laws in the world.

Again if people do not maintain civility this thread will be locked. If you do not like someone's views ignore or respond without insults or name calling unless you want to invite a warning.

[coach8smallball]

my apologies, but I'm not going to have someone say my views are retarded when in actuality, they make complete sense.

millions of americans would lose their jobs, but other countries like india, and iran....would get paid by the USA to reduce their carbon emissions. also, America would have to reduce their carbon footprint by 20 percent, but china doesn't have to reduce theirs at all. so in reducing the carbon footprint, the US would be reducing their energy and in turn having to pay other countries to reduce their footprint.....how is that even fair and the loss of jobs along with revenue just doesn't make sense.

Alright, I guess I'll strop trying to educate gooners. Quitting this thread for good.

And saying climate change isn't real isn't a view, it's just a sign of being a moron.
