3:09 [...] I don't want anything toget in our way, I am fighting every day for the great people of this country. Therefore, in order to fulfill my solemn duty to protect America and its citizens, the United States will withdraw from the Paris climate Accord. Thank you, thank you. But begin negotiations to re-enter either the Paris Accord, or in really entirely new transaction, when terms that are fair to the United States, its businesses, its workers, its people, its taxpayers. [...]
4:30 [...] As president, I can put no other consideration before the well-being of American citizens. The Paris climate Accord is simply the latest example of Washington entering into an agreement that disadvantages the United States to the exclusive benefit of other countries leaving American workers, who I love, and taxpayers to absorb the cost in terms of lost jobs, lower wages, shuttered factories and vastly diminished economic production. [...]
7:52 [...] Not only does this deal subject our citizens to harsh economic restrictions, it fails to live up to our environmental ideals. As someone who cares deeply about the environment, which I do, I cannot in good conscience support a deal that punishes the United States, which is what it does, the world's leader in environmental protection, while imposing no meaningful obligations on the world's leading polluters. For example: under the agreement, China will be able to increase these emissions by a staggering number of years 13. They can do whatever they want for 13 years. Not us. India makes its participation contingent on receiving billions and billions and billions of dollars in foreign aid from developed countries. There are many other examples but the bottom line is that the Paris Accord is very unfair at the highest level to the United States. [...]
10:35 [...] The rest of the world applauded when we signed the Paris agreement. They went wild, they were so happy for the simple reason that it put our country the United States of America, which we all love, at a very very big economic disadvantage. [...]
12:59 [...] Even if the Paris agreement were implemented in full, with total compliance from all nations, it is estimated it would only produce a two-tenths of one degree. Think of that. This much Celsius reduction in global temperature by the year 2100, tiny, tiny amount in fact, 14 days of carbon emissions from China alone would wipe out the gains from America. And this is incredible statistic would totally wipe out the gains from America's expected reductions in the year 2030 after we have had to spend billions and billions of dollars, lost jobs, closed factories and suffered much higher energy costs for our businesses and for our homes. As The Wall Street Journal wrote this morning, the reality is that, withdrawing is in America's economic interest and won't matter much to the climate. The United States under the Trump administration will continue to be the cleanest and most environmentally friendly country on Earth, will be the cleanest. We have the cleanest air, we're going to have the cleanest water. We will be environmentally friendly but we're not going to put our businesses out of work. We're not going to lose our jobs. We're going to grow, we're going to grow rapidly. [...]
15:15 [...] I'm willing to immediately work with Democratic leaders to either negotiate our way back into Paris under the terms that are fair to the United States and its workers, or, to negotiate a new deal that protects our country and its taxpayers. [...]
16:16 [...] The world will be thrilled but, until we do that, we're out of the agreement. I will work to ensure that America remains the world's leader on environmental issues, but under a firm work that is fair and where the burdens and responsibilities are equally shared among the many nations all around the world. [...]
18:30 [...] The Paris agreement handicaps the United States economy in order to win praise from the very foreign capitals and global activists that have long sought to gain wealth at our country's expense. They don't put America first. I do and I always will. The same Nations asking us to stay in the agreement are the countries that have collectively cost America trillions of dollars through tough trade practices and in many cases lacks contributions to our critical military alliance. [...]
19:57 [...] I was elected to represent the citizens of Pittsburgh, not Paris. [...]
20:41 [...] Beyond the severe energy restrictions inflicted by the Paris Accord, it includes yet another scheme to redistribute wealth out of the United States through the so called "Green Climate Fund". Nice name which calls for developed countries to send 100 billion dollars to developing countries all on top of America's existing and massive foreign aid payments. So we're going to be paying billions and billions and billions of dollars and we're already way ahead of anybody else. Many of the other countries haven't spent anything and many of them will never pay one dime. [...]
27:02 [...] It is time to put Youngstown - Ohio, Detroit - Michigan, and Pittsburgh - Pennsylvania, along with many many other locations within our great country, before Paris - France. It is time to make America great again. Thank you. Thank you.
