Discussion: WATCH LIVE: Trump Holds Event On Paris Climate Agreement At 3 PM ET

This whole episode just feels like the latest in a series of The Don holding another issue hostage that matters to people, dangling it in front of everyone, showing off his power to do damage, and diverting attention from every other mess/grift/treason he has going.

"Mr. President, are you worried how climate change may affect production in covfefe plantations, or in artisanal small covfefe farms in Costa Rica?

I like the fact that out in front of the announcement, whatever it turns out to be, industry and business leaders, as well as the usual tree-huggers, have taken such a strong chance against abandoning the Paris agreement. As someone put it this morning, either Trump leaves a major piece of Obama’s legacy intact or he goes against practically all sectors of the public.

From CNN’s Jim Acosta:

Trump may be coming up with some fine print to satisfy Ivanka [and screw the rest of the world]

President Trump is expected to withdraw the US from the Paris climate deal. But there may be some language that attempts to satisfy daughter Ivanka Trump, who has been pushing her father to remain in the agreement, according to a GOP source.

Trump and Vice President Pence are calling lawmakers, including leadership, to get input on his climate decision this morning.

The source said all indications continue to be that Trump will withdraw from the Paris agreement

For those who can’t or won’t stomach this, myself included, he will

  1. Pull out of the Paris Climate Agreement
  2. Have reasons that are all over the place and he won’t mention the true reason - Obama
  3. Spout off about removing burdensome regulations on business (not what PCA is about) and putting Americans back to work (again, nothing to do with PCA) and MAGA
  4. Wander aimlessly off script
  5. Weave in at least 7 “believe me” and 41 “very, very”
  6. Mention HRC at least once

Pundits will cream their jeans as they laud just how presidential this pig-eyed sack of shit sounds.

Our tenuous allies around the world will shake their heads and go about the business of marginalizing the US even further.

But I’ve been known to be wrong. Bigly.
