President Donald Trump appeared to the United Nation’s Climate Action Top Monday– for about 15 minutes. The president wasn’t anticipated to appear at the international meetings at all, so his appearance was a surprise. Even if it was for 15 minutes, max.
At least one reporter on Twitter < a data-ga="[["Embedded Url","External link","https://twitter.com/mirandacgreen/status/1176155115574702080",{"metric25":1}]] href=" https://twitter.com/mirandacgreen/status/1176155115574702080" > stated the president remained just10 minutes. In either case,15minutes isn’t that far better. He had to go to make the United Nations session on spiritual flexibility he is leading Monday.

This is the same guy, after all, who pulled the United States out of the Paris Agreement, so his habits is to be anticipated. Still, it’s odd for him to reveal face at the UN Environment Action Top at all given his indifference to environment modification. Then again, Trump loves attention.

” All countries should get together and do that,” Trump stated, per Knoller. “And they need to do it on their own.”
