point out in the forum guidelines where correctly stating that a poster is lying is prohibited.

Trees are expensive. Oaks cost $400-1000 for a 10 year old tree. Smaller saplings will be easily eaten by deer and other grazing animals. Even the maples and other trees costs in the hundreds of dollars.

no one's going to be planting 10 year old trees, that would be silly. sticking an acorn or pine seed in the ground is cheap.

They could be grown in nurseries and planted later. I wonder about the cost, because running a nursery is not free, and trillion trees requires a heck of a lot of nurseries. $100 per tree from seed to 5 feet, and we're still talking $100 Trillion.

The "twilight zone" is back.
"the US will join the initiative" is NOT "POTUS Trump/Donald Trump/US/etc planned to plant all 1T."
It also doesn't mean he claims creating the initiative

Trump DS sufferers that provide answers - as they have multiple times already - which includes their derision for the POTUS, or that he's only interested if he profits, or that he'll forget, etc - yes, they have done this.
