Trump Softens Stance on US Involvement In Climate Accord

Reporters at The New York Times tweeted details from a meeting with President-elect Donald Trump as it happened on Tuesday, contrasting it with an off-the-record session Trump held a day earlier with leaders at the top television networks.

Donald Trump has dismissed claims that he might run in to trouble if there are conflicts between his business interests and his job as President.

Still, Spencer argued Trump needs the alt-right movement and should be wary of shunning it because of a few news cycles of bad publicity “that do not define what we’re doing”. “Mitch McConnell loves me”, Trump said. If I thought he was a racist, or alt-right. “I really enjoyed him a lot”, Trump said.

Trump’s children and grandchildren are also receiving official protection, and, with his wife Melania and young son Barron planning on staying in NY at least until the end of the school year, costs will likely remain high.

Asked about a far-right conference in Washington where people were seen making Nazi salutes and celebrating his election win, Trump said he rejected and condemned it.

Trump has remained hard to pin down when it comes how he’ll handle his many business dealings to avoid potential conflicts of interest – and whether he sees the need to at all.

Yet the White House counsel, who serve at the pleasure of the president, may have additional conflicts of interest.

Trump insisted that his company has little importance compared to his new responsibilities, but dismissed the idea of separating himself from it, which would be nearly impossible because it is made up of real estate properties.

And now Trump admits the hotel is “probably a more valuable asset than it was before”, according to a Times reporter’s tweet.

During his presidential campaign, Trump repeatedly said he would withdraw from the Paris climate accord.

New Yorker editor David Remnick, citing sources attending the session, said Trump complained that NBC News used unflattering photos showing his double chin, and asked for “nicer” images. “I think there is some connectivity”, he said. “There’s never been a case like this”.

Soon after it broke up, a leak to the New York Post brought on a story about how thoroughly the president-elect had taken the attendees to task.

Once Trump has taken the oath of office, the insider noted, the decision to launch an investigation rests with the attorney general, who has the power to convene a criminal grand jury or appoint a special prosecutor.

The real estate mogul said he saw no conflict in his business dealings and being president. He said Trump and his children would have to agree not to discuss the business. “It was very cordial, very productive, very congenial”, she said.

Trump even suggested that his son-in-law Jared Kushner, an orthodox Jew who has helped write Trump’s speeches on Israel policy, could be a player in striking the Mideast peace deal. Trump has at least 10 similar licensing deals around the world, each of which might complicate his administration’s worldwide diplomacy, according to ethics specialists.

Trump signaled another shift on the question of how to treat terrorism suspects. Earlier this year, the Trump International Golf Links and Hotel in Ireland cited the threat of sea-level rise in a permit application to build a almost two-mile-long stone wall between it and the Atlantic Ocean.
