Trump to Comey: "You're fired!"
Comey to Trump: "Let's see who's still in a job this time next week, sucker!"

This could get interesting

It's pure and simple Trump bull****. Of course the Paris agreement targets America, they're one of the single largest polluters in the world.

This women is utterly toxic - poses with a picture of Trumps blood soaks severed head (imagine if the same had been done for Obama, she'd be in prison right now), then after the backlash she tries to play the victim card and blames Trump!

As if that wasn't enough she also engages in racism and agism in her 'apology' by blaming "old white men"

Just unreal the mentality of these people. I think if you look up 'liberal progressive' in the dictionary it'll say "see Kathy Griffin". Absolute scum.

Indignant at a comedienne when Trump has just sold out our kids' futures.

I suppose if you were a small minded right winger youd be believing he was safe guarding the same kids future

Too late, Obama already did that - $9tn increase in national debt under his term, along with vastly more in terms of future debt liabilities - debt which future generations ('our kids') will be saddled with.

The only good thing about the 'future' for the US is that 'generation Z' (2000-) are significanly more conversative leaning compared to previous generations, and liberal areas of the US have by far the lowest birthrates.

I was referring to Trump pulling out of Paris. Obama was a class act.

I've yet to fully read up on it, but I can understand why Trump has pulled out (although I'm not necessarily saying I agree with that).

Climate change is no doubt real and a major concern, but what tends to happen with these things is Western countries will 'take the lead' and agree on something which then impacts their economies through job losses and shifts the problem to other countries.

For example you introduce tough laws on workers rights, and higher minimum wages - what happens? Production is moved to somewhere where the workers have much lower rights, conditions are poor, wages are very low but production costs are also very low. People seem to really buy into this 'out of sight out of mind' thing.

What really annoys me is people running big corporations like Tim Cook from Apple chipping in. Look at the conditions of workers at Foxxcon and other suppliers. I don't think they're going for the most ethical and environmentally friendly suppliers - they're simply going of the lowest cost and enjoying staggering profits. Then Tim Cook will chirp on about how 'more should be done' etc etc.

The real question is how do you get the big polluters like China to make meaningful changes.

Trump is a businessman first and foremost and he wants the playing field to be as level as possible with his competitors, so I can understand why he's pulled out.
