It sounds so nice, the Paris climate accord. Such a nice name. Oh, isn't that beautiful? We want the Wisconsin accord. We want the people of Wisconsin, not the people of Paris. That Paris accord was going to cost us $1 trillion. And other countries like China, it was considered third world China. It's a developing nation. They didn't have to pay anything. India didn't have to pay anything. (1:16:28–1:16:33)
