John Oliver Explains Everything That Is Wrong With Trump’s Paris Decision
[Watch the video below]
Comedian John Oliver, on Sunday, broke down Donald Trump’s decision to pull the United States out of the Paris Climate Accord last week.
The “Last Week Tonight” host noted that the branding of the agreement is all wrong for Trump. Oliver said it is so off brand that for Trump it might as well have been called “Globalist cuck surrender” or a “light jog.”
Oliver fact-checked Trump’s claims about the Paris Accord. He started with Trump’s claim that the world celebrated the signing of the accord because it put the U.S. at an “economic disadvantage.”
“What are you talking about?” Oliver said. “They were happy because they secured a landmark victory for the future of the planet, you fucking egomaniac.”
Oliver also blasted Trump’s “ludicrous misunderstanding” of the climate change agreement. He pointed out that Trump’s claim that other countries can continue to build coal power plants while the United States needs to shut ours down.
“For the record, the agreement doesn’t actually ban America from building coal plants,” Oliver told viewers.
“It doesn’t even contain the word ‘coal,'” he told his audience. “Each country sets its own goals that it can meet however it wants, so that is wrong.”
