Newsflash. There is no cult, and after watching pathetic loser, bat crazy Hillary and her excuse tour, it's clear that only sane, educated people voted for her

The browning of america and changes to american demographics is essential to the democrats future. The Democrats havent won the white vote in a presidential election in 40 years.

They havent even been close except for 1992 or 1996 and that was when the white vote was split with perot and republicans

Sounds like a solid strategy to me. The left will hate him regardless of what he does. The US could enter a golden age of prosperity and greatness and the left would still be hysterically calling him every dirty word in the book. He should pay zero heed to anything that specifically just the left wants. None. Zero. They're a lost cause that will never support him, and their views are largely to the detriment of America anyways. His base is large enough to win re-election as long as he keeps them.

And the Paris Accord does almost nothing to address the environment. Its mainly a massive transfer of wealth from the US to other countries, mostly third world. So glad we're out of it.

He had no real reason to do this and knew little about what he was doing as usual. It was a Bannon thing. This is the way Trump has conducted his life and business--pretty much motivated by his desire to tell everyone to f**k off (which is behind most of his actions), with no real logic behind it.

I don't think he had a clue how many countries are in the accord or would have to agree to a new negotiation, as he doesn't have a clue about many issues.

He has finally united the country though--against him. And also motivated an entire group of people to join the global community--having the opposite effect of his anti-globalism crusade to force us into the last century.

All we heard is we need to pay higher taxes because the government needs more money for roads in bridges and then they want to give the money away to other countries using the Paris accord to do it.

I do not see anything that says he is to protect the environment. Please tell me where you find this?
Where does it say the POTUS should lob millions of $$$ worth of cruise missiles at a country we're not at war with and that's done nothing to us?

If we're to take business acuity as a good measure of a man let's not forget the far more successful Mr. Bloomberg has labeled Trump a con-man.

These people are activists.
The Catholic Church has accepted most scientific theories, it's the protestants that are behind.
