I was just going to write - but I’m in Florida where our governor struck the phrase “climate change” from the state vocabulary. The state that will surely be the first to be overtaken by the ocean.

Did you see Samantha Bee and Al Franken mentioning each other’s descriptions of Trump yesterday? You’ll definitely enjoy it.
I am calling our Massachusetts governor every day asking him to honor the US Climate Alliance. Many governors have promised to state-by-state honor the Paris Agreement. Call your governors every day until they sign on. EDT: if you want the absolute best President for the environment, go to Hillary Clinton’s website…
I’m remembering last fall when Trump was questioned about saving the environment by a journalist. He replied;”Well you have to leave a little (environment), but you can’t interfere with businesses!”
I agree; we should give him some time. 25 to life to be exact.
Y’all won’t even change what you eat for breakfast, but Trump’s ego is murdering the planet. Okay then.
“Y’all won’t even change what you eat for breakfast”
“and, oh, it’s not terribly feminist to abuse female animals by forcibly controlling their reproductive systems (they are impregnated against their will on what the industry calls “rape racks”, for crying out loud) and stealing their babies.”
I had dinner with someone who ran a nonprofit in NYC. Trump came to their annual fundraising event with about 700 people. He grabbed the mic and proclaimed he was going to give $1 million to fund one of their programs.
I feel like the dead horse has been turned into powedered glue at this point, and I realize I’m preaching to the choir but... as a Canadian who does not have blinders on about her country (and is not a fan of JT and his government’s environmental shenanigans*), and as a sympathetic observer who fully realizes that…
I still think we should give him some time. Do we know what he’s really like yet? I’m on the fence.
Martin Schulz, current head of the EU Parliament and candidate for the Chancellorship of Germany, has just said that there is now no point having trade talks with the US to widen access to the European market. He argues that since the US is leaving Paris, American companies will not be following the same environmental…
If they allow individual states to become signatories to the agreement, that might be enough to mitigate the damage. California and NY combined have the GDP of Germany. As other states realize the economic boon of the agreement and join, they might even back us into the agreement again.
I read a strange news story the other day that claims Trump and a non-profit charity basically used victimized families of immigration related crime to raise money it never used to help them. The charity founder even told them to ‘start a GoFundMe’ if they wanted help while using their presence at Trump-related…
Trump isn’t a melting ice sheet. Melting ice sheets are at least somewhat cool.
The worst thing for me is the number of people on my facebook page commenting on the Breitbart article and cheering for this. Rational, intelligent and sane people who believe its a big lie.
I’m in the ‘Sanction the US’ camp at the moment because unless it hits Trump and friends wallet, he won’t care.
Sadly, this never gets old.
