Powerline:
Trump warned us that there’d be so much winning that we’d get tired of all the winning. And while this week has been consumed, as usual, with the sideshow of another one of Trump’s impetuous tweetstorms, the ledger is indeed showing a lot to celebrate.
Some headlines:
Germany ‘Massively Weakened’ Draft G20 Climate Plan to Appease Trump
Germany’s G20 presidency dramatically weakened a climate action plan, gutting it of ambitious language and defining gas, and potentially even some coal power, as “clean technologies”, in an attempt to appeal to US president Donald Trump.
The action plan was intended to be agreed at next week’s Hamburg G20 summit. Climate Home has seen two versions, drafted in March and May of this year. The latter shows the degree to which the German presidency has bent to the will of the Trump White House.
Several elements that have been removed in the May draft are:
A 2025 deadline for the end of fossil fuel subsidies
References to the risk of “stranded assets”
A call for “the alignment of public expenditure and infrastructure planning with the goals of the Paris Agreement”
A push for carbon pricing
A commitment to publish mid-century decarbonisation blueprints by next year
I love winning!

He should still not sign it. That will make them go further ape shit.
Trump should demand irrefutable proof of manmade global warming from these idiots or tell them to STFU.
Screw Merkel…(with YOUR dick)
I will never tire of seeing President Trump win because that means we, AMERICA, are winning. There hasn’t been a skoosh of suggestion that he has done anything for selfish reasons – including defending himself and his family.
Thanks, President Trump for “Making America Great Again” (I hope Sean Pean and Michael Moore just had cardiac infarctions!
Oh for crying out loud…President Trump’s tweets are not “impetuous”. They are planned, deliberate, and effective.
I AIN’T NO WAYS TARRED !!
@organgrinder – beyond that, he should demand convincing proof of cost-effectiveness of any proposed actions or policies.
Keep it up Mr. President, and keep it bloody. I’m loving every minute of it.
