    Are we at war with China? Sooner or later the lefties will figure out that Donald Trump is not a Republican.

    Nicaragua is only a non signatory to the Paris Climate Accord because it does not go far enough, in fact much of Nicaragua hopes to be powered by renewables by 2020 and it, along with Costa Rica, are two of the greenest economies in the world.

    The free market has already taken us there. There are literally fives times as many jobs in the renewable industry (wind and solar power) than there are coal miner jobs in America. I believe there are 260,000 employed in renewables and around 50,000 coal miners still extracting that resource.

    Elon Musk (parasite) and Disney (LGBT propaganda arm). Wow. They really represent "CEO's".

    It's important for Americans to defend their values and not allow trumpery to befoul the nation's reputation.

    Trump's 36% approval/58% disapproval is a statement to decent folks throughout the civilised world.

    The alt-left hated CEO's and Corporate America before they loved them.

    LMFAO!

    Make up your fricking minds!

    I don't know which "fake news idiots" you follow, but the legitimate pollsters had Clinton's lead shrinking precipitously to 3.2% as the cumulative margin in the last polls preceding the election, and she was only 2.1% up on election day. (That was more accurate than their 2012 polling.)

    If the mere 12 point differential by which Rasmussen now has your messiah down upsets you less, you are free to whine about all other polls and cling to just just that one.

    Yet, Trump was elected over your candidate. The fact you guys still don't even understand why or how, should really have you clamming up and doing some soul searching before popping off at the mouth about the victor.

    If anyone was an idiot it was Obama, he should have actually had legislation passed, so all his 'work' couldn't be erased by Trump's pen. That's what this is really about, the utter ease of the destruction of Obama's 'legacy'...

    Seems he saved us billions if we choose not to hand it over to the 3rd world. Signed or not it won't make a lick of difference what we do. Solar will still move forward. Electric cars will still eventually take over and the batteries required to run them will destroy our environment equally as all the oil we pump. Liberals are just too blinded by their green religion to look at the inconvenient truth.

    Oh yeah. I thought Trump was just catering to rich white CEOs and corporate interests. Won't liberals make up their ****ing minds already who Trumps base is?

    Since it was a non-binding agreement regardless, Trump did not save the US anything.......if you want to swallow that spin hook, line and sinker be my guest but green energy is the future growth industry so I am sure he is costing future jobs and industry and American leadership.

    So then he didn't condemn us either. This is a NON STORY!!! If you want to swallow the line that starting today that we're suddenly going to stop all development on renewables, you're as dumb as these so called world leaders. HOW is he costing us jobs. Explain it? Because taxes aren't going to go to CHINA? We're still investing. The difference is, its on OUR terms and not what some 3rd world countries want. Private business can advance and invest how they see fit.

    Is it safe to admit if the agreement means nothing, like you said, signing or not signing also means nothing. Its so very simple. Its funny how CEOs are trashing us, yet ALL of them deal with China who continues to cause more destruction to the environment than we do and have been for decades. Hypocrites! All of them. Every single one of them including Elon Musk, the god of Green, does more damage every time he travels than 99% of Americans, not to mention his homes, ect. HYPOCRITES!!!

    Liberals really hate rich CEOs, until they love them when they say the right things=) Hilarious.

    No, it was Trump playing politics and giving his shrinking base a bone to chew while actually hurting them down the line with the loss of future jobs & innovation, his is simply day trading to get to the next day.........and forget Hillary, she is a has been and that dog whistle only works for low information voters & Trump supporters. Making this right vs left serves the far right & left and Putin. Trump is under water, better get your bailer.

    Two things here,

    1. Solar would not survive without massive subsidies from the tax payers. Making it a drag on society that gets to ignore the free market that plays in the real world.

    2. Your claim of 5 times as many people employed in renewable energy makes the case against it whether you realize it or not since they don't provide anywhere near the energy that coal does for the country. With so many more employees, why aren't they producing 5 times as much product??

    Again, its all going right over your head. There is NO LOSS in jobs or innovation. Don't you get that? That's the big LIE!!! We're going to do what we're going to do regardless of Obama's signature on a agreement that doesn't require us to do anything if we decide to say no. Thats what China is going to do. Thats what they're all going to do. This is the same scare tactics being used again and again.

    That sounds a lot like Trump's blameless victim whining. Of course jobs will be lost, that pure common sense as green energy is the future.

    That's what they get for supporting him in the first place. He's not one of them. He's never answered to anyone in his life. He's never been a corporate CEO.

    You heard the saying money talk BS walks
    have you seen what the stock market has been doing in the last few months

    Yah that is right been setting all sorts of records never been higher

    Yah so I'm sure these CEO's hate Trump at their little elitist cocktail parties with their little elitist limousine liberals inside their liberal bubbles and statements to the liberal media for PR
    but back at the bean counting rooms they are having wet dreams about Trump and the money they are making thanks to him

    How can jobs be lost when we're still developing solar and EVs? Because we didn't sign a non binding, useless agreement? Oh...you think it's a law or something we have to abide by? Oh silly me....I thought you read it=)
