I wonder if Trump realizes that rising sea levels due to climate change could wipe out Mar-A-Lago, and drought could sorely affect the water supply to irrigate his golf courses?
Finally, somebody with some brains gets us out of the Paris Climate Accord. The amount of money they expected the USA to pay while China and India went on polluting for the next 13 years with no restrictions, is not what you call a good deal for America. You don’t have to be stupid to clean the air and water. And if it was such a good deal then why didn’t Obama go through Congress?
It’s pretty amazing that Sean Hannity actually asked why liberal commentators are not helping to defend him in his fight for freedom of speech. Maybe it’s because what he considers “freedom of speech” is what everyone else considers conspiracy theories.
So the state of Indiana will no longer subsidize the cost of driving on the toll road for EZPass travelers. Basically, they leased the toll road for billions, stashed the cash and now we get to pay double for tolls. Bottom line, we pay more and the state gets the benefit. Sounds like a poorly disguised tax increase to me. Privatization at its finest.
I am so happy to hear our president thinks he knows better than the entire scientific community and the coalition of most of the countries on earth when it comes to global warming. He thinks he can bring back coal jobs despite the fact natural gas is cheaper and more plentiful. I hope he somehow snaps back into reality before it is too late.
There are two parties now. Republicans and Americans.
Fourteen billionaires joined Bill Gates and Warren Buffett in giving away more than half their money to causes focused on alleviating poverty, education, health care research, climate change and the environment. You can bet our billionaire president is not on that generous list.
Because of the unmitigated ignorance of the White House idiot, the U.S. will now join the other two dictators who did not sign the Paris Climate Accord: Syria and Nicaragua. Isn’t that great company to be in. He calls climate change a hoax and thinks coal jobs will now increase. What he is too stupid to realize is that coal helps cause climate change and the trend is toward renewable energy and natural gas. We have become the laughing stock of the literate world.
The president needs to understand that keeping a partisan agenda is going to keep his approval ratings spiraling downward.
Most people admit when they are wrong. Those that continue even when they are wrong, are mostly disturbed, fueled by insecurities and vendettas.
