The Trump Effect
-
Oh bullshit. No way in hell Trump did this as part of some sort of 8D chess move to actually positively impact the climate. This is the guy that thinks climate change is a hoax invented by the Chinese. I realize you're a Trump fan but come on, be reasonable.
Many companies were already making strides towards green energy, regardless of Trump's decision. I'm not sure how much motivation he's provided vs what was already there.
I enjoyed that even through Trump said he represents "Pittsburgh not Paris" the Pittsburgh mayor called him out on leaving the agreement.
I still think the govt. providing funding and imposing regulations is the quickest method towards making large scale, meaningful changes to curtail climate change. Not to mention Trump leaving continues to make the US look bad while undermining the efforts of the whole agreement to begin with.

You really think that Trump believes it's a hoax invented by the Chinese? Remember when he believed that Obama's birth certificate was a fake? Remember how he dropped the issue as soon as he won over the evangelicals? I'm sure a guy intelligent enough to manipulate the country into voting him their president understands climate change perfectly well. He's going to frame it in whichever way is the most politically convenient.

As if the Democrat mayor of any major US city is going to side with Trump on anything. You seem to be forgetting that "Pittsburgh" represents this entire area.

Woody doesn't have any common sense in case you haven't noticed the past few years.

I know you think Trump is some drunken Kung Fu 8D chess master, but the further we get into his presidency the more I think he's just an idiot. Our country is just full of idiots as well.

I don't believe Trump has been tweeting stupid shit about climate change since 2011 in some masterful plan to win the conservative base in 2016.
And yes, I realize Pittsburgh and it's mayor our blue. I just find it funny this was the one city Trump mentioned in his statement about leaving the Paris agreement, and that city's mayor immediately disagreed with Trump

He's been eyeing the presidency for decades. He ran as a Democrat in the 80s or 90s. He's used his time in the media business to learn about what fires up the average American TV viewer, and ran a campaign that unequivocally demonstrated such. Yet you're still writing him off as someone who isn't intelligent.
Do you think he was an idiot for pressing Obama on his birth certificate? I certainly did at the time. Do you think he would have won the GOP primary if he didn't?
-
Maybe he is s drunken Kung Fu master and every idiotic thing he's done has had some long term plan. Going all of the way back to dumb things he tweeted in 2011.
Maybe he is just an idiot and resonated with a large portion of Americans that are also idiots. All while gaining the support of some non idiots that believed he was actually an 8D chess master.
The more he's in the public spotlight as president, the more I'm leaning towards the latter. Feel free to disagree.

Yes but if you only get your news from the mainstream media you aren't going to know about them as they focus almost exclusively on running negative stories on Trump. Close to 90 percent in one study I read.

Here's another question. Do you believe this hurts or helps him in the rust belt?
-
Oh it probably helps.

I never thought I'd see anything "trump" Watergate which was basically just spying on the Democrats and the following cover ups which led to the embarrassment of a sleaze ball president (Tricky Dick) and the only impeachment in the United States history.
This might come close, stay tuned, hey it's on all the stations.....unfortunately.

What was really so incredibly dumb of the Nixon campaign in 72 was that George McGovern had virtually no chance of winning anyway. Nixon had a cakewalk to be re-elected and the Watergate break in was just a stupid thing to do and those involved needed to go to prison for dumbness as much as anything. Nixon tried to cover for these dummies and that was his mistake.

Presidents Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton were impeached by the U.S. House of Representatives, but acquitted by the Senate. Richard Nixon resigned before he could be impeached.

yea we were saying the same thing for the LAST 8 Years....
wondering why Obamas scandals havent risen higher than the so called (then) "outrage" Nixons office incurred
you know why? you seem to have answered that in your comment regarding all things anti Trump being "on all stations"
the last 8 years went unnoticed by a media that "couldnt write dialog for a porn flick"...

Yes as a matter of clarity there were other impeachment procedings but only one actual quitter and that wasn't in the first 200 days as president.
Our country has decedened into a partisan mess and I do not know what it will take to reverse this trend.

I think because it's come this far, this bad....
it won't improve, but will get worse.
