Barack Obama Responds to President Trump's Withdrawal From Paris Climate Deal

Read the full statement below:

A year and a half ago, the world came together in Paris around the first-ever global agreement to set the world on a low-carbon course and protect the world we leave to our children.

It was steady, principled American leadership on the world stage that made that achievement possible. It was bold American ambition that encouraged dozens of other nations to set their sights higher as well. And what made that leadership and ambition possible was America’s private innovation and public investment in growing industries like wind and solar – industries that created some of the fastest new streams of good-paying jobs in recent years, and contributed to the longest streak of job creation in our history.

Simply put, the private sector already chose a low-carbon future. And for the nations that committed themselves to that future, the Paris Agreement opened the floodgates for businesses, scientists, and engineers to unleash high-tech, low-carbon investment and innovation on an unprecedented scale.

The nations that remain in the Paris Agreement will be the nations that reap the benefits in jobs and industries created. I believe the United States of America should be at the front of the pack. But even in the absence of American leadership; even as this Administration joins a small handful of nations that reject the future; I’m confident that our states, cities, and businesses will step up and do even more to lead the way, and help protect for future generations the one planet we’ve got.

The founders tried to prevent it.
They put the natural born citizen clause in there.
If they had known we would become stupid I’m sure they would have put in a glossary to define all the terms.
Natural born citizen = born here of citizen parents.
Obama was never eligible to be President.

Hahahahahha….. Really? If Obwingnut had of wanted to ‘show leadership on the world stage’, he would have taken it to the Senate to be ratified……but we know how that would have worked out.

Please put the criminal Barack Obama and Hillary in prison for their crimes against America and Americans.

And put the climate scientists who have committed fraud to advance communism in a gulag that they would have designed for me if they had their way.

In his entire eight years, Obama never did one single thing to advance America’s interests.

True. At least Bill Clinton ended the national 55 mph speed limit.

Those self conscious cadences are like fingernails on a chalkboard. Maybe if we ignore him he’ll go away.

From the jackass that destroyed health insurance.

These Leftist idiots repine far-flung, speculative threats while decimating the sovereign economic landscape. Delusional criminals is what they are.
