G-20 shut Trump out on climate, strike deal on trade (The Munchkins make their own deal)

HAMBURG, Germany — World powers lined up against U.S. President Donald Trump on climate change Saturday, reaffirming their support for international efforts to fight global warming.

The final statement of the Group of 20 summit in Hamburg, Germany, underlined that the other countries and the European Union supported the Paris climate agreement rejected by Trump. They called the deal to reduce greenhouse gases “irreversible” and vowed to implement it quickly and without exception.

The other countries, from European powers such as Germany to emerging ones such as China and energy producers such as Saudi Arabia, dismissively “took note” of the U.S. position, which was boxed off in a separate paragraph that the summit host, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, made clear applied only to the United States.

They can do what they want.

Has no bearing on Trump.
Has no bearing on us.

Quite enough $$ has been wasted on this fraud. There is a Canadian case involving Michael Mann that could upend all the “Global Warming/Climate Change” hysteria.

This is great, I think we should help them and support them.

I propose the US Officially suspend All Sales of Carbon Based Energy to every country of the Paris Climate Accord.

“Unfortunately, and I deplore this, the United States of America left the climate agreement.”

Angela Merkel learns that Donald Trump is not Neville Chamberlain.

IT’s obvious the G20 has been manipulated by US media and Democrats. They are still in a dream world thinking Obama is POTUS. They will learn soon that POTUS doesn’t back down.

A bald-faced lie.
The “climate pact” is going nowhere without American money.

I prefer the original headline of this article:
“Trump leaves leaders fearing the future as G-20 summit closes”.....

PRESIDENT TRUMP WINS !!!

President Trump has stopped the Europeans from screwing Americans and dragging down the American economy with their foolish war on climate.

So they have decided to thumb their noses at President Trump by screwing Europeans and dragging down the European economies with their foolish war on climate.

Of course they would—it was a global redistribution scheme from the US to the rest of the world!

Without the US, all of this is background noise. Notice that the scared rabbits in Europe were hanging on every word of Trump. In Poland, Trump made it clear that he supported Article 5 of the NATO treaty. The NATO members and the rest of Europe breathed a collective sigh of relief. Without the US guaranteeing their survival, they would be lost. South Korea and Japan are in the same boat along with Australia. The US is the indispensable nation and the guarantor of Western Civilization.

It is laughable that the G-20 is so concerned about protectionism. They all run trade surpluses with the US and use protectionist policies to ensure that their domestic markets remain protected from foreign products. Border taxes and tariffs are imposed against the US without any reciprocity from us. Trump promises to change all of that. The US wants fair trade, not "free trade" that works to our disadvantage.

Meanwhile outside on the streets of Hamburg the darling leftists so protective of Mother Earth were lighting fires and adding destruction to the environment for their cause. Flux them all frauds and phony stupids.
