Support the idea to...?
Classic political speak. Paralysis by analysis.
Isn't the USA outperforming Paris Accord members in reducing greenhouse gas emissions?
Carbon tax in France, $7 per gal right now. Rioting in the streets. France one of only five members to achieve over 50% of its target.

Paris accord is the most important global attempt to slow impact of manmade climate change. Trump's stupid decision to withdraw in 2020 is among the most destructive things he has done. It makes US a threat to humanity and increases difficulty of avoiding risks of global warming. This costs US economy billions and thousands of americans die prematurely according to recent report by 13 government agencies and 300 scientists.
US is still one of the worst polluters in the world despite efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. According to polls, most americans support Paris accord as well as many states, cities and businesses. Future historians probably see Trump as among the worst presidents in decades.

Candidate Trump made a campaign pledge to withdraw from the Paris Agreement.... the withdrawal would be in accordance with his America First policy. Another example of President Trump keeping a promise made to the American people...

Trump claims NAFTA is the worst deal and new USMCA is great. But USMCA is 99% NAFTA with minor changes. Trump likes to take credit for the work of others. However USMCA is criticized by both republicans and democrats so its passage is uncertain.
Especially after democrats gain control of house of representatives. Trump needs consent of congress which has specific power to regulate international deals under US constitution.
Now Trump threatens to terminate NAFTA to pressure congress to approve USMCA. Risky since ending NAFTA without a new deal would be a economic diaster devastating industries and thousands of jobs. But Trump likes to manufacture a crisis and claims that only he can fix it.

8 Years. Never had to hire a lawyer.
President Obama
Could somebody please explain to the Democrats (we need their votes) that our Country losses 250 Billion Dollars a year on illegal immigration, not including the terrible drug flow. Top Border Security, including a Wall, is $25 Billion. Pays for itself in two months. Get it done!

So this is good stuff.....
I moved to South Florida in 76 & worked for a company that had Tripp, Scott, Conklin & Smith as their law firm. These guys were government connected in Tallahassee & also had billionaire Wayne Huizenga as a client. Everything Huizenga touched made money..Waste Management. Blockbuster Video, the Dolphins, AutoNation, Extended Stay Hotels. Going down the intracoastal waterway out to the ocean to go fishing, we would go past his yacht that was the biggest in South Florida at the time.
Anyway I noticed yesterday when reading the Dershowitz deposition regarding pedophile Jeffrey Epstein one of his lawyers was Dennis Scott who is a partner in the law firm I noted above.
Just a little while ago I read a letter sent to Congress by Roger Stone's lawyer who's name is Dennis Smith. Again, a partner in the law firm mentioned.
Stone lives in Ft. Lauderdale & Epstein in West Palm Beach. It's a heck of a coincidence this law firm defends these two scumbags IMO.

Trump exaggerates cost of illegal immigration according to associated press and other fact checkers. That $250 billion might be from National academy of sciences but BOTH legal and illegal immigration are included. Perhaps, Trump refers to flawed study from Federation of american immigration reform? It is criticized for inexact estimates and broad assumptions by Cato institute. According to Migration policy institute, studies underestimate migrants contribution as workers, taxpayers and consumers.
A wall isn't necessary because illegal immigration is now among the lowest levels in decades. A wall won't magically remove illegal immigrants already in the US. Only deportations do according to Berkeley population center. There are other ways to improve border security such as surveillance technology and more border patrol agents.
