1. That's not exactly a surprise, IMO.

It was part of Trump's campaign. He told England and France he would withdraw.

And if Trump believes that he can unilaterally dismantle the agreement by making the U.S.'s inclusion contingent upon changing the terms of the agreement, then he's consistently delusional.

3. So he kneecaps his own SoS in the process.

I don't get why anybody would work for that duplicitous asshole.
