Calif. Gov. Brown Sez U.S. Should Emulate Communist China
Speaking to MSNBC's Chuck Todd, Brown discussed his June meeting with Xi. The two men met in China for a discussion of climate policy, shortly after President Donald Trump officially decided to withdraw the United States from the Paris Climate Accord. Brown said that California and others states are forming a climate alliance, but that they need leadership from Washington more like Xi's in China. "I met with president Xi for almost an hour. This is a very determined man," he said. "He's building roads and high-speed rail and not just in China, but all over the world." "Washington can't even build roads and bridges in our own country, much less spreading the American dream all around the world," he said. "If we're going to be the great power we all want to be, we're going to have to start rolling up our sleeves, raising some revenue and getting the job done." Brown centered his argument on climate change, and he made thinly veiled references to President Donald Trump's comments on the matter. Posted by: Besoeker 2017-08-08 |
