Like, that's his entire business history and he constantly puts undue focusing on the name of things and takes pride in his naming of stuff from "Lying Ted" to "Make America Great Again." Trump's all about the sizzle on his over cooked steak.

I've been reading this same reaction all over. That tons of people plan to stick with emissions reduction anyway because they simply see Trump as a short term aberration against a long term trend.

so like, how do you depoliticize climate change? In my hometown, its the concept is synonymous with "tree huggers" and immediately sparks the whole "THOSE STUPID LIBERALS" reaction.LionArcher posted:They have drones and the actual psychopath warriors working for them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEHy-vPYKTc

Zophar posted:Perhaps the silver lining here is that Trump negotiates a new deal that's actually way worse for America, in concert with his previous efforts. Who does he even think he is going to negotiate with? 194 other countries already have a deal in place, they don't need another one.

You know, I understand that your president is a irredeemable retard, but who wrote this speech? All he is doing is going in circles saying the same thing over and over again. His occasional ad libbing is like a whiplash that reminds me what a clown he is and then he returns to the speech to say the same thing he just said a minute ago once more. "We will......... leave.......... the paris...... climate accords. It is bad.... for the United.... States. We are going.... to leave... the paris accord... behind. -*Bad deal, tremendeously bad, let me tell ya*- ..............We will do so because... the deal... is not in the United States'.... best interest. Millions of... coal jobs... are lost..... we are spending 100000 trillion.... in this deal.... to pay for.... all other countries.... in the world......................................" Does he read with these constant pauses in his speech because he is trying to be dramatic or does he have this much trouble reading? This is embarrassing to watch.

I'm going to be really pissed when Trump is done and those guys are still getting rear end kissed by beltway media. Anyone that called Ryan some kind of genius wonk should be shot into the sun.

Majorian posted:It would probably be wise for the Dems to get out the vote in those states, take back power, and then implement a new jobs program. Because not doing that means certain defeat. Yes. But they aren't too happy about jobs programs coming from Democrats. It insults their pride. They want their old jobs back, honest coal mining jobs like their fathers had, not this pussy solar panel factory you guys are proposing (which pays like poo poo because that's factory work these days.) Plus, of course, it's hard to teleport jobs into the middle of nowhere. Towns that were set up to mine a seam that no longer exists, or next to a river so that the factory can load easily onto the barges, aren't necessarily anywhere convenient for other purposes. There's only so many gun trigger factories the government can set up in nowheresville.

Was anyone listening to NPR when horsely was saying America was one of a small number of countries not in agreement then someone said Syria wasn't just because it was in a massive civil war and the us doesn't have that excuse then horsely was like "well, not yet"? It seemed really brutal for NPR!

Night10194 posted:I've been reading this same reaction all over. That tons of people plan to stick with emissions reduction anyway because they simply see Trump as a short term aberration against a long term trend. Pretty much everyone agrees that coal is dead, climate change is real, and we gotta do something. Its not only smart policy, its smart business since no one wants to be behind the trend of cleaner energy in 10 or 20 years. Its just rear end in a top hat Republicans who have turned it into a purely political issue and can't ever admit they were wrong because then they'd be giving the Dems and Liberals a win. And a lot of them who genuinely don't know better because they live in the bubble and drink the Kool Aid.

Aha seriously? Three countries didn't sign, one of which because they're in the middle of a civil war, another because it wasn't aggressive enough and now the US because "coal and stuff"?

They want their old jobs back, honest coal mining jobs like their fathers had, not this pussy solar panel factory you guys are proposing (which pays like poo poo because that's factory work these days.) Yeah, the issue with coal mining jobs isn't just the economic impact, but also the perception of coal mining as being a proud, masculine profession, a "real job," a "man's job." It's another example of toxic masculinity.

I think you're projecting a lot onto them. They may look sideways at new industries for a bit, but I'm sure many workers were skeptical of New Deal jobs programs too. Honest, steady work is honest, steady work.

I'm a former bouncer and have been doing martial arts for 20 years. In a home invasion scenario, I'm far more likely to beat them off with a baseball bat, than he is with his AR. I'd take 20 years of weapons training over 20 years of martial arts.

Honest, steady work is honest, steady work. The romanticism of the coal industry is really bizarre, because I'd wager that a large amount, dare I say a majority, of coal miners were working in coal so that their children wouldn't have to. These people aren't really interested in coal mining, they're interested in role playing a coal miner.
