In the long view, it may help repudiate their empty ideology.

Did Hannity ever come back from "vacation"?

He did but he's going whole hog with Kim Doc Tom so I expect he'll be run out of Fox pretty soon.

I'm nowhere near as concerned or freaked out about the Paris agreement as a lot of people will be. It was incredibly weak and almost worthless in the first place.

There is no enforcement mechanism or penalty, all you agree to do is set a target, measure CO2 levels, and if you fail, explain why. We could literally say "our unemployment is too high and we need more jobs, so we just didn't feel like it was worth meeting our targets. Sorry, maybe next time."

Unfortunately it reinforces the idea that Americans think they're the only real people on the planet.

Covfefe is an expert distraction, I don't think Trump wants anyone thinking about the word 'coverage' at the moment.

Simple answer, then: covfefe (the V is silent, obviously, so coe-FAY-fay) is now a synonym for coverage.

So is the Paris Agreement binding in any way? Can the US be sanctioned or receive any other economic punishments for withdrawing or failing to meet targets? Or can they just agree to sanction us for having someone this stupid at the helm anyways?

Who cares anyway? "Does Trump's kid feel bad?" is probably the lamest thing to possibly care about short of "Does Trump feel bad?" when neo-nazis are killing people in the streets.
