Boo-hoo. Cry me a river.

Trump refuses to allow the US to be used as a source of funfds for all the phony "global warming fight" by other countries.

Good! Go, Trump! MAGA.

Leaders isolate themselves in the right place.

That’s why they lead.

In 6-12 months, more will follow us.

Yes, the brilliant and highly successful President of the United States is ruthlessly truthful and, unlike most of the other so-called "world leaders," is not a slave to groupthink.
