Wild Claim: President Trump Quoted Hitler When Withdrawing from the Paris Agreement

The funny thing, or normal since we are talking about a political solution, is that the Paris accord will do exactly the opposite of what it is supposed to do. It will not lower the amount of carbon going into the atmosphere at all. The simple fact is that as the developed world cuts, China India and the developing world will expand. This is simple as they will gladly manufacture all the high CO2 intensive goods for us. This would allow us to live up to our commitments and they will peak their production sometime in the future when we have no manufacturing left. But what happens to CO2 as this is taking place. It goes up more than if the manufacturing was left in the developed world in numerous ways.
The first is that the US has stringent environmental laws and high efficient co-cycle natural gas fired power plants. China still has old coal plants with much lower efficiency so for a pound of goods produced more carbon will go into the environment.
The second is that the goods need to be shipped out to the world from China and the raw materials need to be shipped to China. This increases th carbon footprint of each pound of goods produced.
Third, the goods coming from China tend to be cheaper. Thus, we buy more of them and treat the products as disposable. Why keep and repair it when you can buy another for less money. Once again this increases the carbon footprint.
Fourth, the developing world will develop faster and this will increase the calls for a better lifestyle. Once again increasing the amount of carbon going into the atmosphere.
So, it is clear that the Paris accord will actually promote more carbon in the atmosphere by its very design. A better approach would be to assign the carbon to the end consuming nation of the products not to the country where the products are made.
Regardless of where you are on the climate debate the Paris accord is not a viable solution to a the so called problem of increased CO2 in the atmosphere..

Quoted Hitler (sort of)?
I’d say closer to this.

George Washington’s Farewell Address
Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence (I conjure you to believe me, fellow-citizens,) the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake; since history and experience prove, that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of Republican Government. But that jealousy, to be useful, must be impartial; else it becomes the instrument of the very influence to be avoided, instead of a defence against it. Excessive partiality for one foreign nation, and excessive dislike of another, cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side, and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots, who may resist the intrigues of the favorite, are liable to become suspected and odious; while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people, to surrender their interests.
The great rule of conduct for us, in regard to foreign nations, is, in extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connexion as possible. So far as we have already formed engagements, let them be fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here let us stop.

Trump on quitting Paris

Staying in the agreement could also pose serious obstacles for the United States as we begin the process of unlocking the restrictions on America’s abundant energy reserves, which we have started very strongly. It would once have been unthinkable that an international agreement could prevent the United States from conducting its own domestic economic affairs, but this is the new reality we face if we do not leave the agreement or if we do not negotiate a far better deal.
The risks grow as historically these agreements only tend to become more and more ambitious over time. In other words, the Paris framework is a starting point — as bad as it is — not an end point. And exiting the agreement protects the United States from future intrusions on the United States’ sovereignty and massive future legal liability. Believe me, we have massive legal liability if we stay in.
As President, I have one obligation, and that obligation is to the American people. The Paris Accord would undermine our economy, hamstring our workers, weaken our sovereignty, impose unacceptable legal risks, and put us at a permanent disadvantage to the other countries of the world. It is time to exit the Paris Accord — (applause) — and time to pursue a new deal that protects the environment, our companies, our citizens, and our country.
