A future Democratic president would rejoin the Paris climate accord “without hesitation,” California Governor Gavin Newsom said Tuesday, slamming President Donald Trump for pulling the United States out of the deal.

“It’s a moral commitment, it’s an economic imperative, it’s both — and it’s an abomination that he has twice, not once, pulled away from the accords,” Newsom said in response to a question by AFP in Belem, the Brazilian Amazon city hosting the UN’s COP30 climate summit.

“Donald Trump is doubling down on stupid,” he said.
