You said in 2017, I think it was, um, that you were the president of Paris, uh, I mean of Pittsburgh, not Paris. When you were talking about that, um, the, the, the, um, uh, Iran deal. Um, I wonder if you could just talk about how that has come full circle here today.

Donald Trump

00:00:20-00:00:42 (22 sec)
Well, they had a thing called the Paris Accords. I said, "No, I want the Pittsburgh Accords. I'm not interested in that." And that was an environmental deal that they were putting out in Europe. And, you know, they, I'm sure they meant well, but it was very unfair to America, and I terminated it. I got out paying a trillion dollars or some ridiculous number to be involved, and other countries are paying nothing, like always.

So, uh, yeah, it was the Paris Accords. And I said, "No, I want the Pittsburgh Accords." It's so interesting, and here we are in Pittsburgh.

I thought today was so amazing. You see such a diverse crowd. People of different, you know, um, different trades, different things that they're involved, but, and all coming together. And I think it changes things for a generation or two, right? Like this is a game changer.
