“I think it’s one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen, or perhaps most naïve”, Trump said.
Trump added that part of the problem is Obama’s insistence that climate change presents an active threat against humanity.
The president’s vigorous performance on Monday can be contrasted with the listless performance he gave two weeks ago when talking about the threat of terrorist groups like the Islamic State. As president, he went on, “you now are in fact at the center of what happens around the world”.
GOP front-runner Donald Trump has released a new video mocking President Obama for his addiction to selfies and for posing for amusing Internet photos, even as ISIS terrorism grows across the world.
“You know they want to make it because a lot of these terms as they come I don’t work so well”. “I can guarantee you this, they aren’t worrying about climate change anymore, if they ever were”. “America’s already leading on many issues and climate is no different”.
“All he wants to talk about is climate change”, Trump said of Obama. “The reason is because this one trend, climate change, affects all trends”.
“Obama speech way over time but no one at #cop21 seems to mind”, Richard Black, a Director with the Energy & Climate Intelligence Unit, a British non-profit, tweeted.
OK, so maybe he is the most powerful man in the world after all.

“Accepting this challenge will not reward us with moments of victory that are clear or quick”, Obama said. “But I am convinced that we are going to get big things done here”.
