Republicans in House and Senate..will have a hard time defending this.

[Stuart G]

With the entire world against what Trump did today, the Republicans will have to defend him. And no one else will........
what a horrific show...

1. I think they're hiding

Hoping it will all blow over.
Meanwhile the toxic planet they're making
will give their own children cancer.
Are you Republicans really this dumb and self-absorbed???

[Hayduke Bomgarte]

5. "Are you Republicans really this dumb and self-absorbed???"

Seriously? The ones that aren't naturally, are paid to be. So yes they ALL are that dumb and self absorbed.

[hatrack]

2. Their voters won't give a damn . . .

The six-toothed, cousin-fucking, small-engine repair-shop owners;

The smug, neo-Babbitts of the Wakeeney, KS Rotary Club;

The drunk uncles with the "Hillary For Prison" tees, the "I Don't Believe The Liberal Media" bumperstickers and the email forwards entitled "Proof Of The Cilatem Change HOXA!!"

The AG preachers who rail against uppity women and disobedient children, citing Old Testament death penalties as part of the "Good News" - the ones who endorse GOP candidates from the pulpit while keeping a watchful eye on their kiddie porn stash;

The coal-rolling rednecks, mid-five figures in debt for their testosterone shitwagons, the guys who like to spend their spare time keying any stray Prius that might pause in town;

Those voters?

[Different Drummer]

3. Good post!

[Stuart G]

4. I respectfully disagree...

Some Republican voters will give a damn... Hard to know who or how many..but polls will show they do give a damn. Sure, some won't.,,but many will. I do believe some in Congress will show the same disgust with Trump. That will come in the next few days.

[hatrack]

6. Congress? No, a few might say how "concerned" and "troubled" they are . . .

They might even cite the time-honored classic "I'm not a scientist" or that other big hit "The climate is always changing."

And that will be the end of it.

[central scrutinizer]

7. "The jury is still out"

"Not all scientists agree on this issue"

[hatrack]

8. True!! I'm forgetting my greatest hits . . .

"We don't really know if humans are causing it."

"What do these scientists really know."

"Scientific records only go back (number of years)."

[hatrack]

10. Here are the GOP members of the "Climate Solutions Caucus" - Twitter Comments?

So, 20 GOP House members who very publicly "care" about the environment.

Of that total, 3 said Trump screwed up, three said Trump screwed up but it was really Obama's fault, one said it was all Obama's fault, one whined about the agreement, and 12 said nothing. Nothing at all. They couldn't even find 140 characters within themselves.

Oh, and these are the "green" Republicans, remember that.

9. Of course they can defend it. Climate change is a hoax as far as they are concerned.

Why shouldn't we pull out of the Paris agreement? It is based on a supposed lie.

We can't blame Donald Trump for the ignorance of all Republicans.
