Need I say more? I'm literally boiling ever since yesterday. And how did that guy, Dobbs, manage to work at CNN for that long considering some of the crap his show on Fox airs?

Isn't Lou Dobbs the guy who doxxed one of Trump's sexual assault accusers? Also its hilarious how the GOP think climate change is some left wing conspiracy when literally every other right leaning party in the world believe in it too.

Anyway....

Sentence structure and word choice dip from a 5th grade level to a kindergarten level, only to lurch back up when he starts reading again. It is disorienting.
It's more than disorienting. It's extremely disturbing, especially with everything we know today about a combination of old age and unhealthy life habits.

In the topic of clean energy, I saw a statistic yesterday about how many people work in various energy sectors. I was astonished to see there were already 370,000+ people working in solar energy and 101,000+ in wind energy compared to roughly 86,000+ in the coal industry. With those numbers coming from the US Department of Energy in mind, I'm just baffled at how that idiot still believes that coal industry needs help when it's clearly on its own dying path.

Safe for the part than the whale oil industry didn't buy their politicians enough to protect their industry from newer one.

Why wouldn't they vote for him?

He has convinced them that only he cares for them and everyone else is exploiting them or "wasting" money or less important things

Why do people like you believe in this unsubstantiated garbage? Practically all of her claims are conspiratorial theories with no evidence and many contradictions propped by shit like Clinton Cash. Do some research and learn.

Trumps collusion with Russia is an investigation. While on the surface there seems to be many concerning details regarding his associates this doesn't mean at the moment that we should assume he did anything impeachable yet. Let the investigation process and we will see.

How about we focus on the very real failings of this Presidency? He just abdicated the US as the leader of the free world in many ways yesterday. Good fucking job.

well, yeah, America first, right? ESPECIALLY THE RICH AMERICANS AND THE LOBBIES!

This decision to leave the Paris Accord, under the untrue premise that we fucking bullied Americans into adopting green energy, is yet another breaking point to me. In my eyes, Trump is not just the mouthpiece of /pol/ and the puppet of Steve Bannon, he is a fucking Captain Planet Villain of the Week and those Corrupts Corporates from the Simpsons who have come into our reality. I have not forgiven Dubya the invasion of Iraq. You can be certain I will NEVER forgive Trump the leaving of Paris Accord. But, fuck the planet and save those coal plants and mines, as well as those SUV eating up dozens of gallons a miles and those jobs that involves them from the car factory worker to the gas station attendant, RIGHT?

Trump could have just signed the accord, and not do anything about it
it's a non binding agreement and I am sure many nations will have varying levels of commitment or even non-commitment

This rejection was for show and to further pronounce the "Americans is being exploited by everyone else" rhetoric
I've checked with someone who watches Fox News, and that seems to be the case.

or maybe Trump's just really upset about Macron trolling him earlier

The US already signed it. Withdrawing from the Accords was a purely gratuitous act on Trump's part, part of his overall strategy to overturn anything accomplished by the Obama Administration. I guess he's still smarting from that White House Correspondent's Dinner six full years ago.

yeah i feel which trump main plan is just "erease" obama from american president history, by undoning everything obama did what he is doing instead of "actually save the americans" and also make his "awesome wall" of shame, because he want proof to china which he can make his own "big wall to be spoted in the space and turn usa in a full closed xenophobic country.

Well because it takes a specific procedure to impeach a president. It has been done before, but no one has been removed from office because of it. Nixon resigned before he could be impeached. Clinton was impeached but not removed. Johnson was threatened with impeachment so he'd tow the line for Congress.

It is up to Congress to decide on impeachment. There is no other legal way that I am aware of for removing the President of the United States.

but i means it's rare to see peoples in usa making protests and things like that, while i saw a few ones on the news it's fel like almost the american don't care at all, like trump can say whatever bs he want and the only really agry peoples are the outside american, i'm not saying which don't have peoples around streets asking for him to be throwed away but compared with others places it's looks almost like the americans just or don't care of are to "pridefull" to accept which elect him was a mistake and prefer just do nothing, it's just the feelings i get oveal by how minimum and low are the "news about peoples being anger with him inside american", or the govern is really good at hidden everything or really most of the americans overal just don't care at last that is the feelings i get.

if the peoples in americans where more "loud" things could be a little more fast and the republicans could be really scared to be at his side.

I would think most Americans don't actually listen to him, nor international news really. What happens outside their general city can mean very little to many people, and after the last decade and half, people don't care about the news anymore.
