No offense, but withdrawing from the Paris Agreement is symbolic.  Both sides may be right that it won't be as big or will be a bigger deal than anyone can imagine; but the truth is that it says a few things about our current leadership.  It shows that our current leadership will not necessarily honor any agreements made in the past 240 years.  It shows that our leadership cannot understand basic science nor economics.  It shows that our leadership does not comprehend the value of being a leader.  Oh well.  Clearly, the people who voted for Donald Trump and continue to support him despite all of this, perhaps, proves something else, maybe we deserve what we get.  What I find the most startling, however, is never before in the history of the USA has have so many egomaniacs been willing to gamble with the fate of the rest of us.  Maybe Trump is right, but when all indicators say he's not, how can the Trump supporters and the President be willing to risk the future of the entire planet?
