Saw a clip of John Kerry with his comments on the withdrawal. More bad plastic surgery- he is hideous (and really stupid.)

Elon, you may be smart and rich.

He is only rich because all of us with jobs have been donating to his bank accounts to pay for all his fraud "inventions".

He could drop dead tomorrow so that the country will be a better place.

Out of the Paris Accords?
Sounds good to me!

Who here will claim a President Rubio would have done this?
Who here will claim a President Jeb! would have done this? (hahaha)
Who here will claim a President Kasich would have done this?
Who here will claim a President Fiorina would have done this?
Who here will claim a President Cruz would have done this?

C'mon, step up and take a swing at me!
I'm a-waitin' !


Cruz would have. Edited post to include this from 2015:

Cruz also asked Trump to do so.

What about the agreement Tillerson signed??

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I'm curious about all the articles about big business urging him to stay with it.   Exxon was one of the companies named.
Sure, they're going to fuel the world with pond scum (algae). One more reason not to drain the swamp, but an incentive to keep the climate ball rolling so their expenditures for all that research can produce a ROI through mandates of some kind or funding grants.

I may be wrong, but I would suspect that the outgoing CEO of EOM received a handy sum and stock options or shares as part of his parachute.

Government (your) money flowing into the till seems to have an effect as well.

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

Cruz issued a statement today supporting the move.  He would have done the same or probably better.

A few posts up is link from late 2015 where Cruz says if he's elected he will withdraw for the Paris Agreement. So there's plenty of evidence that Cruz would have done this too.
