Can't imagine it will be that long we will have to deal with him, but even if that is the case, it doesn't take much research to see the harm he is doing long term. I won't run out of material, but boy how many of the same old same old insults and snowflakes can you throw out. You need to come up with either some new material, or maybe actually have a thoughtful debate over a subject that will (not if) impact your kids and their kids. But maybe it's all about you and that certainly wouldn't surprise me.

If you feel it helps then that is all that matters.

According to the uber-liberal Washington Post, the US led the world in reducing carbon emissions. Not good enough? Should we all live in tents and walk to work?

Not debating we are leading the world, but we are now going backwards, when we drop out of the Paris accord and eliminate regulations put in place to achieve those goals for the sake of profits. Unless you are blind or just don't want to see it, the climate is changing and the science community is ramping up its warnings, just because we are leading now, doesn't mean our work is done.

i said it’s changing.

if we are leading the world
in carbon reductions, how are we going backwards? just because we dropped out of the paris deal?

what does it matter if we make sacrifices, and china and russia don’t?

Wow good rational for the US to throw in the towel and stop setting a good example. I’m sure your grandchildren will understand you as you explain we just couldn't change until everyone on the planet agreed it’s time. Don’t worry they will pass that on to their kids, as they explain why they are sh*t out of luck.

Good news for you as you are now free to stop recycling or any of the other BS since others around the world aren’t doing their part, wow what a load off for you.
