Do we really think Trump is the pushing force for the exit of the Paris Deal?

Last edited Thu Jun 1, 2017, 01:51 PM - Edit history (1)

Nope, Bannon and his rich crony buddies, are the ones pushing this! Trump is just reaping the winning of his base! I don't know everything about the deal, but it is what helps us stay healthy and keeps the air cleaner for the world. I just wonder what the true motive behind them wanting the U.S. out of the deal? They say it is money, so where will that money be going? Not to the public with health care, not help the needy, not for new roads, on and on!

It's been reported to have paid Trump the .05% commission on the part of the deal selling off 19% of Russia's share. And I've read (though I can't cite where I saw it last night) that Trump and Putin have a deal where the U.S. will buy all its outside petroleum needs from Russia and not the Gulf countries which the fake president sucked up to last week. That all goes back to the removal of sanctions so Russia can export to their heart's content.

I'm just throwing this out there because it keeps rolling around in my head.

if that stupid man keeps the US out the deal, we will be with Syria and Nicaragua is that correct?

We need to get this stupid man convicted/ or admitted to a mental health facility.
