But we still ain't gonna do shit about it.

In an interview with CBS' "60 Minutes" that aired Sunday night, Trump said he doesn't want to put the U.S. at a disadvantage in responding to climate change.

"I think something's happening. Something's changing and it'll change back again," he said. "I don't think it's a hoax. I think there's probably a difference. But I don't know that it's manmade. I will say this: I don't want to give trillions and trillions of dollars. I don't want to lose millions and millions of jobs."

    Hurricanes making landfall is more akin to weather than climate. I quoted the interview. Are you trying to be funny or just make yourself look dumb?

    We’ve discussed this. Unless China and India do something about it as well, what we do is meaningless. The problem, China and India won’t do anything about it. The current economic benefits to them for polluting the air far outway longterm health crisis of climate change.

    How will changing things to reduce pollution cost trillions and trillions of dollars and millions and millions of jobs?

    I agree mostly. I wouldn't say that what we do is meaningless. But China, India, and others need to get their shit together.

    As soon as the rest of the world catches up we'll consider more action.
