Key Trump quotes to UN:
“The greatest con job ever perpetuated on the world.”
“If you don’t get away from the green energy scam, your country is going to fail.”
“The carbon footprint is a hoax made up by people with evil intentions and they are heading down a path of total destruction.”
“In the US we still have radicalized environmentalists … they want to kill all the cows.”
“All of these predictions made by the United Nations and many others, often for bad reasons, were wrong. They were made by stupid people that have cost their country’s fortunes and given those same countries no chance for success. If you don’t get away from this green scam, your country is going to fail, and I’m really good at predicting things, you know.
“They actually said during the campaign they had a hat, the best selling hat. ‘Trump was right about everything.’ And I don’t say that in a braggadocious way, but it’s true. I’ve been right about everything. And I’m telling you that if you don’t get away from the green energy scam. Your country is going to fail.”
“The primary effect of these brutal green energy policies has not been to help the environment. But to redistribute manufacturing and industrial activity from developed countries that follow the insane rules that are put down to polluting countries that break the rules and are making a fortune.
European electricity bills are now four to five times more expensive than those in China.
And two to three times higher than the U.S.
All in the name of pretending to stop the global warming hoax.”

E&E News: ‘Con,’ ‘scam,’ ‘hoax’: Trump’s UN speech on climate –
President Donald Trump rebuked world leaders for being overly concerned about climate change during a speech to the United Nations in which he called global warming a “con job.”
Trump, who spoke for nearly an hour at the U.N. General Assembly in New York, argued that renewable energy such as wind and solar are a “scam” that should be eliminated. He urged nations instead to buy more American oil and gas, while also increasing nuclear energy.
“I’m really good at predicting things,” Trump said. “I don’t say that in a braggadocios way, but it’s true. I’ve been right about everything.” …
The president’s remarks appear to mark his most extended and unfiltered riff on climate science and policy in front of global leaders during his second term. His comments came as Trump has waged a broad campaign to slash funding from climate research, cancel clean energy tax credits and roll back regulations to limit climate pollution, while expanding efforts to produce fossil fuels. …
Trump described the Paris climate agreement as “unfair” and urged other countries to withdraw from the pact, which includes nearly 200 nations. His comments come as the his administration is weighing whether to withdraw from the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change, which could dramatically reshape international efforts to mitigate global warming for years to come.

Climate Depot’s Marc Morano comments: “President Trump delivered to the UN a speech that will go down in history as the most powerful, honest, and accurate climate speech ever given by a world leader. Trump’s speech –delivered face-to-face to a stunned UN General Assembly — was awesome — historically awesome! Trump eloquently mocked UN climate tipping points and the climate catastrophes that never happened.
Trump hit every central tenet of the climate movement, from failed doomsday predictions, to the ‘green scam’ to the ‘hoax’ of ‘carbon footprints,’ to past warnings about global cooling, to how ‘the radicalized environmentalists’ want to ‘kill all the cows,’ to how Net Zero ‘redistributes manufacturing’ to China.
Trump reached the pinnacle of his speech by summing up climate change as ‘the greatest con job ever perpetuated on the world.’ Historians will look back at Trump’s climate masterstroke as heralding the long-overdue end of the UN/Gore climate narrative. It was not long ago that most GOP politicians were terrified to challenge ‘climate change’, but now we finally have a U.S. president who is leading the world in beating back the unscientific climate nonsense.”
