Sir, the Paris Climate Agreement is not about ... Paris

Senator Ted Cruz
@SenTedCruz
By rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement, President Biden indicates he’s more interested in the views of the citizens of Paris than in the jobs of the citizens of Pittsburgh. This agreement will do little to affect the climate and will harm the livelihoods of Americans.

[First Speaker]

1. You'll always have Paris, Ted...

[demtenjeep]

2. its already starting

they are going to be hard on Mr. President

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. They will be hard on President Biden, but this wasn't it.

Ted Cruz was just being stupid. The President can handle that, no problem.

[brush]

19. That line seems like something out of trump's dumb brain...

which probably still thinks the agreement is about the climate in Paris only. Cruz has to know better, right? Is he trolling?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

21. I have no idea what Cruz is up to. Your guess is possibly right. n/t

[Arne]

8. Good that serious slap back will fast and furious for traitors like this.

[LAS14]

3. Unbelievable! But I believe it. nt

[Irish_Dem]

4. "Lies for power or profit." STFU Traitor Cruz.

[Pantagruel]

5. Can Cruz

really be that stupid?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. Sure looks that way!

[moonscape]

17. No. He's talking to Trump's base. He knows

clearly, but also knows the dumb base doesn’t, and that lying works.

[SMC22307]

28. No. It was for "red" Pennsylvania voters and Texas energy billionaires.

"Red" voters all over the country, actually.

[Wounded Bear]

7. Maybe we should tell Ted that Paris is in Texas and he'll support the agreement...

[Hermit-The-Prog]

10. Coup Cruz is seeking to increase ignorance to gain an advantage for himself.

[matt819]

11. Please tell me that's a joke (nt)

[Silent3]

12. I think Cruz knows it's not about Paris, but doesn't care

Wording this tweet the way he did riles up the base's standard resentments, and that's all that matters to this asshole.

[babylonsister]

13. I was under the mistaken impression he was intelligent.

That's pretty dumb, even for him.

[C_U_L8R]

14. Good grief. The stupid.

[Caliman73]

15. I know it isn't the school, but the student, but DAMN Harvard...WTF?

I mean, it is probably just Cruz being a completely cynical asshole. He can't be that stupid. I mean, he can, but ...

Just like the Kyoto Accords were not about what the residents of Kyoto, Japan thought but about the agreement reached by the multiple nations that met in Kyoto do discuss an agreement; the Paris Climate Agreement is a multinational agreement HELD in Paris.

Cruz has to know this and is just being a dumbass, per usual.

The US is PER CAPITA, the largest polluter. We went through our Industrial Revolution earlier than most other countries and burned the crap out of fossil fuels and dirty energy. Therefore, it is up to us and other post industrial countries to take a larger bite out of the problem than developing countries. They know this.

[lame54]

16. New suggested nickname for Cruz...

Cruzless

Combined of clueless and the Crusier

[Takket]

18. fuck him............ we don't need the MINORITY party vote to execute our agenda

[milestogo]

20. OMG that is funny.

[dalton99a]

22. Fucking moron

[bdamomma]

23. He really said this

What a putz.

[Naio]

24. Ted coup shut the fu@#$& up .traitor.

[kacekwl]

25. He thinks it he continues trump lies and

asshole behavior he'll be the next president. Fool.

[Dyedinthewoolliberal]

26. It's pretty close to the point where Joe and all the rest of us can start responding

to ridiculous statements like that by asking 'are you naturally this uninformed or do you have to work at it?' (that statement could be much more crude of course)

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

27. This is a guy with an Ivy league education

Did he spend all his time chugging and puking?
