That's why we're staying, even with opportunities to work abroad in Europe or Asia.
Nope. America is worth fighting for.
With all the illegals and legal immigrates coming to America seems like a lot of those people don't have the same patriotic duty to country as you seems to do.
Now a question? If we were attacked and a major war broke out how many of those on the liberal side would you guess would join the fight? I think we would find out in a real hurry what the snowflakes would do. I would be more than surprised if the left didn't break and burn things while blaming America.
The recent exit from the Paris Accord by Trump putting the US in a group along with just Syria and Nicaragua was just another sign of where the president has the nation headed. Instead of leading the world, Trump seems intent to have the nation go backwards. He has eliminated many EPA regulations with little regard to the environment just as it is in third world nations. Trump wants to make it open season on the remaining natural resources with little regard for the future. He wants to increase coal demand that’s use has been tied to increased air pollution. DJT wants to bring back low skilled/paying manufacturing jobs (which mechanization/automation have mostly eliminated). At the same time, he is slashing funding for renewable energy and all the jobs it has been creating. He is also slashing funding for science and research which have been shown to be big job creators. Trump wants big cuts to education which will result in even more less skilled workers ill equipped for the future. Trump wants a bill which would remove millions from healthcare coverage putting the nation at the back of the pack when compared to most industrialized nations. It seems many of his actions are backward looking rather than forward. In addition to all of this, he seems intent on consolidating all power within the presidency acting as he alone makes all decisions and is above the law. This is similar to how totalitarians run third world countries.
I am frightened that Trump is setting the course for turning the USA into a third world nation. He is sacrificing the future of America for the short term. His agenda will hurt the country as it will be unprepared for what is to come. What do you think?
No. Obama did that. Trump is bringing us back to our rightful status.
Obama had no business, and no authority to agree to the "Paris Accord" which was not ratified by the Senate, and it is unlawful for him under our Constitution to enter into any such agreement. The so-called Iran deal was also unlawful for him to make.
Making an "agreement" with foreign nations that require us to give up sovereignty over our natural resources is not only against our Constitution, which he swore an oath to protect and defend, it would be an impeachable offense on that basis.
We didn't "exit" from the Paris Accord, because we it was never binding on us in the first place. We rejected it.
Your criticism is misplaced. Trump is moving us forward in the direction of Freedom once again. That's a good thing, and it is hardly "moving backward."

Actually, Obama already did that. If we are lucky, Trump will reverse everything Obama did.
Oh, and BTW, the Paris agreement has zero impact on fighting climate change. Its non binding so every country including the USA can do whatever they choose to do.
I realize everyone thinks Donald Trump is all-powerful, but even he can not turn the US into a 3rd world country in less than 150 days in office. BO tried for 8 years and didn't quite succeed (thank heavens.)
No, illegal immigration has done a lot of that. He will turn it around and make us not be a third world country if the obstructionist will stop causing trouble. Use your brain for a change.
Half of USA is right, entire world is wrong.
And then we say french are the symbol of arrogance
You ignored his argument that other countries are not asked to pay their fair share on this endeavor. Of course someone would approve if someone else foots more of the bill.
