I’ve said this on FR many times. This treaty was never ratified by the US Senate and therefore has never been in legal force for the USA.

It is merely an “executive agreement” by the Obozo admin. and therefore subject to easy repudiation with just a word “NO” from President Trump.

Obozo knew he could not get Senate ratification, and so he never submitted it to try to make it a binding treaty. It is nothing if President Trump says it is nothing.

We do not have to go through some multi-year process that the globullists want to foist on us, either. All President Trump needs to say is that that he renounces the agreement of his predecessor and the USA is not bound by anything in the so-called “Paris Climate Accord.”

I expect that after today it will have been made clear by President Trump that Obozo’s agreement was merely a scrap of paper that has been tossed in the wastebin of history.

All right. Although, I haven't seen it in these words that any or all treaties can be "unilaterally withdrawn by the president" which is more blunt and to the point.

Moving on, the media is now blabbering about Trump being partially in with qualifications. If it's something like we get same deal as China and India being exempt until 2030 ...I'll have to mull that one over. I guess we will find out within 1 hour.

And, again, it is illegal, either in EO form, or in Senate ratification form, because it is unconstitutional, and, therefore, null, void, and unenforceable regardless of what Trump does. Of course I hope he rejects the Paris Accord, but we are a nation ruled by law (the Constitution) not man. Trump is NOT the final word if what he says & does creates an unconstitutional treaty.
