Today on “Fox & Friends,” Vice President Mike Pence lavished praise on President Trump for withdrawing from the Paris climate change agreement, repeating Trump’s nonsensical line that he “was elected to represent Pittsburgh, not Paris.”
Pence hailed Trump for demonstrating “leadership” by pulling out of the international accords and standing “without apology for the American people.”
He added that he was perplexed as to why people, particularly liberals, even care about climate change: “For some reason or another, this issue of climate change has emerged as a paramount issue for the left in this country and around the world.”
