Trump's Paris Pull-Out Is Reality TV Gold

Let's get to the root of Trump's desires.

Trump's Paris Pull-Out Is Reality TV Gold

Having the responsibility for holding the 'greatest country on Earth' title can be a lot of pressure for any country to hold, but while a contender like the United States is in decline, why not just go for the gold! With over a hundred countries on board with the Paris Climate Agreement including NORTH KOREA, that's right, (the country that fabricates reality itself and wants to blow up the world, believes we are in trouble from ourselves) we as America are not a part of the agreement.

The one glorious man who doesn't believe in climate change? Donald Trump. He was like a kid on the playground nobody wanted to play with when he was amongst European leaders, and he's now taking it out on them by pulling out of the Paris Accord. Could there have been a more childish move? Bill Maher said it best, "this is what they got for not kissing his ass like the Saudis".

This political game Trump is playing is very much like a reckless King Joffrey. Why make the smart move when you can just piss everyone who is on your side off. I just think from trying to push leaders to get in front of a photo, to see who would have the firmer handshake, to a staring contest, Trump is playing a more primitive game. Put on reality television, do you see people getting along? The more conflict, the more ratings. People must constantly remind themselves that Trump was a reality T.V. star, and his end goal is always attention. Talking nice things about the Russians gets a reaction, and that seems to be what he wants. Pissing off your allies, well that gets a reaction too so why not.

The new drug we've been given as a society has been social interaction told in numbers by social media. Trump could worry about ratings every night, but to be able to count Twitter retweets per minute, live and instantaneous with his mood. Trump feels his power through his adverse reactions more than his positive ones. The attention can be from anything, and Trump just found a new way to get high. No wonder his staff calls their meetings, "Twitter interventions", "Twitterventions" sounds way better, #twittervention.

I'm getting off topic, but it all comes down to the real problem we all face, our climate. The Inconvenient Truth is starting to become the inconvenient reality as our global temperature is reaching critical levels never seen before in human history. I personally can not get on board with Earth's demise, and we could not have a more unmotivated group of people to defend this planet in the time when it really needs us. There was the hippie generation, then the preppy, then the hipster, but not we're gonna have to evolve back into hippies if we want to get anywhere near revolutionaries. I'm overgeneralizing, but Trump's pushing past seventy and doesn't have more than two decades at least, so he doesn't have to care about the outcome of this planet, his children do. Just goes to show you how selfish he is. He has also undone a bunch of conservation efforts that include bans on hunting animals like the Eagle, yes, he is willing to destroy the face of America in that way.

If he really has nothing to hide, he has shown multiple attempts to stop Comey and now I hear he's trying to get him to not testify at all. This looks so bad, but it could be what he wants us to think. The smoke is visible, but there might just be Trump with a troll face mask on with a smoke machine in his hands while he muffles through the mask, "made you look".

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
