He Kept His Promise?

       Well, it's done. We've finally shown ourselves to be unfit to be considered leaders of the free world. Actually most of us didn't show any such thing. We just allowed our president to show he's no longer the leader of the free world. Yep, we've joined Nicaragua and Syria as one of the gang of three who seem to know better than the rest of the world and most Americans, not to mention the vast majority of scientists who believe global warming is a huge threat to our planet.
       But after all, Trump did promise to pull out of the Paris accord. So he kept his word. We may well fall behind in the energy industry. We may become a second rate country as a result, but hey, he kept his word. Grover Norquest is proud of his president. You remember Grover. He's the guy who won't allow any Republican Congressman to vote in favor of any kind of tax. Apparently even a carbon tax, even to save our environment.
       Now, after a few years, we'll al be able to cough louder then we can now. We'll have to in order to semi-clear our lungs. The funny thing is, even the two other biggest polluters in the world, China and India see and realize the need to stop polluting our only environment. When it's shot, we're shot. But Trump kept his promise and that's what really counts. His base loves him. I wonder if they understand the problems they're handing their grandchildren.
       They think they're saving coal mining jobs. What they're really doing is hurting far more clean energy jobs. Coal is a dying industry. It's never coming back and that's a good thing. The short sighted decision made by President Trump has taken away our leadership in the world and we may never be able to get it back. But he kept his promise.
