    Default China and the EU were willing to let us lead the world.

    China and the EU were cowed into allowing the Untied States to lead the world into the next 100 years on Global issues like Climate Change.


    Now they will get to do it. At least until or unless we elect new leadership.

    What exactly does that mean? They were going to let us "lead them"? Does it mean they were going to let us take the lead in tanking our economy? Well, yeah, I could see why they would want us to take the lead on that.

    Why do we want to be the world leader?

    How has your life materially changed by Trump backing out of this non binding agreement that Obama never got ratified by the US Senate according to the US Constitution?

    My life will not likely be materially changed, its my grandchildren who will have to deal with it.

    Climaphobes relax. Your grandchildren will evolve into more weather-resistant humans than your crying flabby asses turned out to be.

    I predict that in 100 years we will be in a "nuclear winter". There's plenty of evidence to support that future.

    And there are plenty of other environmental issues that you can support, ... that you don't because of the Goracle.
    "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that's a storybook, man."
    — Joe Biden on Obama.

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    This is the game lefties always play.

    Pick any legislation/bill/treaty and they claim that it is going to transform our lives like

    Campaign Finance Reform - when that was pushed by McShamnesty way back when we were told that it would take all of the money out of politics. What happened? There is more money in politics
    Obamacare - we were told premiums would come down etc.

    But, then when these scams are pushed through and don't meet their stated objectives the left ALWAYS says "Well, this was never intended to solve the whole problem. It was just a first step"

    Rinse. Wash. Repeat.

    Maybe it's time we stop the cycle.
