OFFICIAL: Donald Trump thread.

Btw, the US is the biggest polluter in history

That's how it got rich

Yup, we sold pollution and got rich.

Hyperbole is not the best way to state your case.

I noticed you left out the fact we aren't the world's biggest polluter any longer, yet the one who is got a sweet deal in that stupid Paris agreement. They didn't have to meet goals until 2030. We had to by 2025.

But we're the problem.

You know, maybe instead of hating on us your nation too could be rich if you followed our examples.

Or keep on hating and whining about what we do.

You obviously don't understand the basics of it

NOBODY is regulating anybody else

Each country voluntarily set its own targets and there are no penalties if you miss

Btw, the US is the biggest polluter in history

Pollution isn't how America got rich.. that's absurd..

And we are the biggest polluters historically only because we are light years ahead of third worlds in terms of development and have over a 100 year head start..

And that is the reason why we cannot join the agreement where china is not a part of or not commiting into helping as well

Theyre going to go ahead of us if we do

Our factories are moving to china for a reason ffs

The foundation of America's wealth is industry

By today's standards, those industries (e.g. Pittsburgh steel) were filthy

China is part of the agreement and is making big strides in cutting its emissions.

The problem is that you cannot simply shut down hundreds of dirty power stations overnight (as that would leave a billion people without power) so they need time to build new ones

BTW, your factories are moving to China because it is cheaper to make stuff there

[1bad65]

Correct.

All these ridiculous regulations we put on our factories make it alot cheaper to manufacture in places like China.

Trump is trying to remedy that problem.

You're catching on!

Business tax, regulations u know nothing about the reason why they moved

And nope China as being a part of it has not done sheet

China reinveted slavery.

You can have 0% tax on businesses and you couldnt come close to matching the costs and salaries that third world countries can offer.

Thats why they move.

the basis of it is that US taxpayers have to pay a tribute each year to third worlders so they can maybe control their pollution, while the loony left try to pass more regulations in the US. of course you think this is a good deal since you aren't American.

Lmao!!! That talking point has been refuted long ago.

If China is only paying slave wages, can you explain the skyrocketing demand in China for expensive consumer items like luxury American cars?

Their streets went from being clogged with bicycles to being clogged with nice, new cars. And that didnt happen on slave wages. So I'm dying to hear your reply.

The US is losing manufacturing jobs to China.

The people buying those luxury cars arent the ones working in factories.

Obviously, manufacturing jobs arent the only jobs that exist in China.
