    Is he saying the atmosphere is a shared resource that no nation should be filling with pollution?

    It’s fascinating how close he is to getting it, while the world knows he never, never will.

      No, he’s saying that the atmosphere is a resource owned by the US and that other countries should pay for it.

    This assfuck is all-in on AI and data centers. He doesn’t give a fuck about the air.

    He could help Canada, but he won’t. It’s all about bullshit. He needs to feed his fat fucking cow followers with endless bullshit. No gaps in the feedings. Bullshit day and night.

    The ONLY reason he is aware of this is because the air in DC sucks.

    We need to reframe this as “Trump opens dialogue about climate-driven environmental hazards, proposes punitive measures for polluting nations”

    See how fast we can get the whitehouse hyenas to shit themselves

      Oh but you see it’s not climate change, Canada just needs to rake 2.4 million square kilometers of forest.

        We should hire Trump’s pool guy and pay him $5M to say that he took care of it. Problem solved, for cheap.

    I mean, careful what you wish for: legislators could troll Trump by drafting bills that use the same language to go after his agencies that have screwed up air quality, water quality, etc.

    Dear Canada,

    I am really sorry about the senile old fuckwit criminal that some of us decided to let run wild. I tried to tell the other fuckwits that it was a terrible idea. They did not listen.

    Sincerely,

    Your Friend in the Banana Republic to the South

      Canada has routinely sent folks to help fight American forest fires. Because that is who we are.
