President Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord has sparked a strong reaction from mainstream media pundits and Hollywood celebrities.
CNN host Fareed Zakaria said today will be remembered as "the day that the United States resigned as the leader of the free world."

Donny Deutsch said on MSNBC that Trump is a "dangerous, little man," while former Secretary of State John Kerry said it was one of the most "self-destructive" moves he's ever seen from any president.
Celebrities also took to social media to bash Trump for exiting the climate deal.
There has never in US history been such a destructive megalomaniac in the WH. Thank you to US press and other numbskulls who put him there.

Whatever you believe about the future of our earth, tell your reps to do their jobs and push for a sit down with POTUS to figure this out
