Here is the factcheck.org about the Parris Agreement: Imagine that, CHINA is considered a developing nation. India as well. The US gave 1B dollars before Trump pulled it.

Trump said that the U.S. “pays billions of dollars” for the Paris Agreement, but China, Russia and India have paid “nothing.” The U.S. has pledged $3 billion, but so far has paid $1 billion. The agreement requires developed countries, such as the U.S., to help developing countries, including China and India, with mitigating climate change. Russia has not ratified the agreement.Trump did lie about the Parris Accord though. He knowingly and falsly claimed that it would cost the US $2.5T in lost GDP over 10 years when factcheck estimates that would take at least 20 years. Just imagine how that could have helped to let other countries get more edge on US companies. Obama signed us into it, Biden tried to get us into it.

Here is another one for you. The Carbon Tax:

A federal carbon tax does not exist in the United States. If implemented, a tax of \(\$40\) per ton would add about 36 to 44 cents to the price of a gallon of gasoline, while a \(\$100\) per ton tax would add around 89 cents

We know that money would have gone to BS. This argument the government was promising tax breaks, yeah I'm sure. Every time the government gets another dime they spend a dollar. If anything they would have given some type of assistance to some broke person or beurocrat.
Wasn’t loling at the Paris accord act, hence why I cut it out of the quote. Thought that was obvious

It's apart of it though. If Harris got in, she would have signed us into so many things. The first two years of Biden's presidency between covid and dealing with the "mess" Trump made for him by wrecking so many things that Obama and liberals had set in place, by the time he got to things like climate change the GOP was there to block him.

Why is the US a declining nation? It's because we are volentarily signing ourselves into BS that either has no benefit for us, or harms us, but also help countries like China and other chitholes. Free trade, give corporations a way to get things produced while bypassing the American worker. Companies that can't outsource the work that needs to be done, and they don't want to pay, let them search the world for people who will work for lower pay. Not a GOP or Democrat thing, they both do it.

I’m not saying I think it would have been better with Kamala..

I lold at you saying Trump would have been criticized if he didn’t do anything about Iran… Trump ran on no wars, he ran not being world police… his popularity is drastically down because he didn’t hold his promises, he got us involved in the things he said we shouldn’t be in, the exact reasons people voted for him

As far as preventing Iran from having a nuke, Trump hasn’t accomplished that either (yet). No signs he will accomplish that goal atm

I agree with you for the most part, You know they would have criticised Trump if he did nothing about Iran, but critic is going ot critic. When the other countries stood down we should have been like "don't call us when chit hits the fan".
