Trump is pressuring some of his fellow leaders to help weaken a G-20 commitment on fighting climate change

OSAKA, Japan — President Donald in a move that could kill chances of agreeing on a final leaders’ declaration.

But this year, Trump is pushing allies to join him in opposition and French President Emmanuel Macron warned he would rather veto a final communiqué rather than allow the climate change section to be weakened further. Officials said negotiations would go on through the night and would likely be left for the leaders themselves to continue on Saturday.

“The President has spoken with many of those leaders that could be part of those that are lowering the ambition of the language on climate,” a senior Elysée official said. “He spoke with Turkish President Erdoğan, with Brazilian President Bolsonaro, to say that it was absolutely imperative to maintain the format 19+1 … and that no backtracking on the Paris agreement was imaginable.”

Wow politico pulls no punches with their coverage *eyeroll*

Europe is having its hottest Summer in history and Trump is pushing the world to produce MORE greenhouse gases. Trump definitely doesn't care about future generations. Even if some praise his last minute decision to NOT bomb Iran. Which was just a ruse anyway.

Please America get rid of him FFS

I see Australia is in good company...

Just try this, ScoMo, if you want to see Trouble... ClimateActionNow for the ClimateEmergency

“Three senior officials” said this, did they? People swallowing this sort of pot-stirring rumour without corroboration are stupid.

The axis of evil

RonBrownstein What a complete embarrassment realDonaldTrump is to all sane Americans.

RonBrownstein Trump is the most ignorant person ever to live.

He wants to get the cooperation of all the dictators who are present!!

I hate Australia being mentioned in that paragraph

Trump seems to want to show the world what pure evil looks like. He's succeeding.

Australia will be in lockstep tugging it's forelock and bowing to the leader.

Not only pulling US out, but actively weakening international progress made.

What the actual fuck?

In the past, this sort of thing was the least of what we had to worry about and feel ashamed of. Now there is so much more.

They will become flunkies for the new axisymmetric configuration in place...greed absorbs the greed of others until we have a one world leader but this trend has a short life because Humanity has greater Understanding of these Leviathans will be cut short in Righteousness.

He may succeed, too. Cancer often metastasizes.

He’s 73 years old. No much life left in him to deal with the consequences ...

Ah, can’t wait for the return of orange streams, two headed frogs, kids with inhalers and particulates from the nearby coal-fired power plant traveling into my lungs. This president is a moron. ClimateChangeIsReal

Embarrassment that he has to round up all the dictators to support his climate changes denying stance turning himself into a lobbyist for the oil and coal corporations which I m sure is getting rewarded handsomely for his troubles

Guess he doesn't care one bit about his own children and grandchildren. Guess he's betting that they don't either.

The ultimate legacy...end all human life on Earth!

'American businessman tries to push self-serving interests of American businessmen on rest of world. Forgets that colonialism was being phased out when he was in elementary school, punching teachers.'

again, siding with 2nd tier allies to weaken US superpower status at the direction of Putin

Lol so what!!!! History is being made right now. Lol. Y’all a mess with all this other worthless stuff your posting.

Trash! The man is human refuse! 😡

Gotta ruin this planet while we still can!

BobbiLeeHunt1 Trump doesn't just want to distroy America... He wants to distroy the WORLD

What benefit do you gain by campaigning for the destruction of our planet?

Trump is a fucking asshole.

What an ass!!!

congressdotgov SpeakerPelosi SenSchumer Your boy is carrying water for Putin. Check this out, he’s trying to get others to change their commitment to climate change. Treason in plain sight — and if y’all don’t stop him, you’re just as guilty.

Is this not illegal FFS!!!!’

For the good of the entire world, Trump needs to be put away somewhere that he can do no harm.

He thought it was amazing that Prince Charles cares about the future. realDonaldTrump is such a LOSER‼️‼️

Becuz it’s junk science. Fix the border and get the govt outta my way.

No, they are not stupidly backwards like Trump

What a horrendous villain. Rape women, rape the planet. It all fits.

Loony Toons didn't like 'the climate change club' because he was the only one who didn't belong to it. Now this juvenile wants to start his own club, just like any 12 year old would do when he can't boss in the original club. It's a constant 'Lord Of The Flies.'

He’s a monster

HA, I can hear them laughing all the way here in the 48... they think he’s a MORON

Of course. CriminallyInsane.

Well guess we know what putin told trump to do

That’s our president! Spreading ignorance across the globe one meeting at a time.

Nobody is taking him seriously. As he gets closer to being removed, even more so.

It's the world against the ignorant Trump. He's the only hold out. They should walk away in disgust.

Earth: I’m dying. Trump: I’ll make it quick.

Im so tired of being disgusted all the time

Very sad and disappointingly for the United States.

lisawborden he doesn't care he will be dead by the time our kids are choking from poison air and water

😡😡😡😡😡

What kind of being is this guy?

trump don't care, he'll be dead

How can they deal with this despot? We hate him and his policies. Despot

because he is too stupid to understand climate change

What kind of person would do that? And what kind of American voter would see that as leadership ?

This is so irresponsible. What are you doing to combat these attempts?TeamPelosi SenSchumer

He'll not succeed or other leaders will ignore him. He is responsible world climate mess, which he alone created it.

No NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Having divided the United States he is now trying to divide nations from eachother? Please, G-d, leaders say no to Trump! It will be a deal with the devil and cause more discord in your countries and with your allies!

He’s an evil pig.

Trump leads the FTF movement. F*** The Future.

Trump weakens. Trump destroys. Trump tears up. Trump undoes. Trump doesn’t defend. Trump deregulates. Trump removes. Trump criticizes. Trump complains. Get it? Get the negativity and anti progress?

Trump has very limited (or none) knowledge on subjects that really matter... either it is on science, wars, human rights, fair elections, immigration, security, etc. He's basically illiterate.

Why? Bc he doesn’t want to lose the fossil fuel lobbyists

France tried to cut back on C02 and the yellow jackets came out.

😫

Clueless. Base shrinking.

More dishonest leftist media complex propaganda attacks against the President. Politico the propaganda machine for the socialist democrat party

Climate change is a hoax. If you're young enough and don't get killed, you will be here in 20 years. The planet will be too. Same old fear tactics to make a few rich.

ryleelisa01

Trump = A greedy, self centered, old man not caring about climate or future of planet or generations beyond him.

Nice NYCJT2

If Donald gets a 2nd term I think G19 is a good idea.

The destroyer of worlds...

What a complete and utter failure of a human being. GOP

All of them will receive a souvenir from MBS. A bottle of acid with dissolved body parts.

He does as he's told, and doesn't care who it hurts. Imagine being so cruel, stupid and weak all in one ugly orange sack of skin? UsefulIdiot

Making money all it matters

Dear Americans: Your president sucks!!

Trump is irreparably damaging earth. He’s the most ignorant unintelligent destructive person on earth. World can’t survive with trump in office.

Trump’s selling out to the lobbyists. The G-20 should tell him...NO!

Trump is a political dinosaur.

Someone really needs to take this US Administration down. In the long term it's no good for anyone - least of all the US citizens it has conned into thinking it is representing.

What a heel.

Aww man is their proof of that conversation, meeting or hearing or is this statement inaccurate political has a long history of inaccuracies

It's official. Trump is to climate what Hitler was to the Jews.

He would be happy to blow up the World. A goal of our Dear Leader is to destroy every living thing.

This is outrageous, I can't believe that rhe leader of the free world is working to destrpy the Planet!

America’s idiot in chief just listen to the nitwit explain wind and solar,he needs a spokesperson badly

A selfish little man that is ok leaving only burned earth after his death. No care for future generations - and the sad thing is ... so many selfish little people defend him and vote for him.
