Sometimes understanding political issues can be tough. So I have decided to explain the futility of rejoining the Paris Agreement and the World Health Organization. Let's check in with this sitcom family as they discuss the husband's new promotion:
Husband: Hey honey I'm home and hey I've got great news I've just been elected president!
Wife: That's wonderful dear! President, wow that's a big promotion. I'm so proud of you.
Husband: Hey sweetie I gotta let you know before you check our bank account that I joined a couple of civic clubs. All the other guys at the office are in them.
Wife: Clubs? What kind of clubs?
Husband: Onie is called The Paris Agreement and the other is called The World Health Organization. Like I said all the guys at the office are members.
Wife: Okay how much are those clubs going to cost us?
Husband: Well one is about $3 billion and the other is $400 million.
Wife: But honey, we were saving that money to get the roof fixed and fix Tommy's teeth. What do these clubs of yours do?
Husband: I'm not sure.
Wife: Really?
Husband: Okay they sit around drinking expensive Champagne and thinking of cockamamy ideas that really don't help achieve their perceived objectives.
Wife: You do that here at home all the time and ... it doesn't cost us a dime.
Husband: True, but now that I'm president I have to set a good example for everyone else. You don't want the neighbors to think that we aren't forward thinking go you?
Wife: What will this memberships do for us?
Husband: Well that's under debate. In fact there is some evidence that points to them actually helping our international adversaries more than us.
Wife: So why are we doing this again?
Husband: Like I said before all the guys at the office are members and we don't want to be the only ones who are not members. We don't want to be perceived as non forward thinking.
Wife: Okay, so we were already doing these things on our own without any help. Why don't we just lead by example?
Husband: Ugh! You're just not getting it!
Wife: No I'm Not!
