"There was concern, especially among more progressive Catholics and Vatican officials about the effects of Trump's election on the pressing need to combat climate change. Here we can expect no good news for four years, and many scientists warn us that four years can set back efforts to heal the planet in ways that are difficult to calculate but which are overwhelmingly negative."

Since Trump and his henchmen claim climate change doesn't exist, we can expect only the worst.  His alt-right constituency believes that white Americans are discriminated against by a government led by a Kenyan president.  If Trump voters are that delusional, there is no reason to expect intelligent governance from Herr Trump.
