Trump rails against Paris climate accord in virtual G20 event
President Donald Trump railed against the Paris climate accord and touted American oil and natural gas production during a virtual session focused on safeguarding the environment on the final day of the Group of 20 summit.
Trump was making what is likely to be his final appearance at an international summit after losing the US presidential election to Joe Biden. His views on the climate crisis -- along with a host of other issues, from trade to security -- have caused deep fissures in traditional US alliances that President-elect Biden has promised to repair.
Trump's speech on the environment, which was pre-taped from the White House, provided an apt end to his four years of disagreements on the issue with fellow world leaders. In it, Trump called the 2015 Paris agreement "one-sided" and claimed it was designed to inflict ruin on the US economy.
"The Paris accord was not designed to save the environment, it was designed to kill the American economy," he said, speaking from the Diplomatic Room. "I refuse to surrender millions of American jobs and send trillions of American dollars to the world's worst polluters and environmental offenders, and that's what would have happened."

More rantings from a lunatic.

but I kinda miss W. 
It really is all about the degree of vileness. I hated the policies of the Bush/Cheney tenure but never believed GW was evil to the bone. With Cheney? That's another matter.
