Obama: Withdrawal from Paris Agreement signifies ‘absence of American leadership’

In the wake of President Trump’s announcement that the United States will withdraw from the Paris Agreement, former President Obama issued a pointed statement lamenting the decision, even as he expressed hopes that individual states, cities and businesses would continue to combat climate change.

“The nations that remain in the Paris Agreement will be the nations that reap the benefits in jobs and industries created,” Obama said. “I believe the United States of America should be at the front of the pack. But even in the absence of American leadership, even as this Administration joins a small handful of nations that reject the future, I’m confident that our states, cities, and businesses will step up and do even more to lead the way, and help protect for future generations the one planet we’ve got.”

If anyone in the world knows something about America's absence of leadership it would be Barack Hussein Obama.

By the progressive definition of "American leadership" he is correct.

These folks truly believe America isn't leading unless we are throwing money hand over fist at a problem.

Whether the gains made are worth the expense never enters the equation for these folks, whether we talking about welfare, or climate change, or whatever.

Trump pulls America out of a non-binding agreement that the real environmental-abusers could've thumbed their noses at, an agreement that would've cost the American taxpayers billions of dollars, and that is a sign of a lack of leadership?



More than anything else, What Trump did yesterday was deliver a punch in the mouth to globalist hacks & mindless bureaucrats everywhere. You can throw mindless SJW's like the Hollywood virtue-signalers into the mix, also.

The proponents of this agreement vastly oversold it. Much like Obamacare, this was just window dressing for those who desperately need to build their resumes and legacies with phony accomplishments.

When Obama, Soros and Hildabeast are all upset over something my President did, I know he made the right call.

Somebody needs to ask him how Solyndra turned out for the American taxpayer. How much more taxpayer money does he want to waste on the Paris agreement?

The entering in to the agreement signified absence of American leadership. It wasn't a deal that was in the best interests of the U.S.

If he believes this, then what difference does it make if the US saves itself a few hundred billion dollars in needless waste on a pointless accord?

Just more false belief that government is the almighty job creator and we are mere beneficiaries to its glory.

That POS has absolutely no class. The unwritten rule of Presidents is you fade into the back ground nor comment on the next administration.....which he isn't doing. I pray all the unmasking crap that went on finally sees the light of day and his legacy is forever tarnished. I mean why the hell is the UN Ambassador (mainly a figure head position) allowed to unmask shite!
