John Kerry: Trump Saying He’ll Renegotiate Paris Accord Like O.J. Saying He’ll Find ‘Real Killer’

On today’s Meet the Press, John Kerry compared President Trump’s explanation of pulling out of the Paris climate accord to O.J. Simpson wanting to find the ‘real killer’ of Nicole Simpson Brown:

“When Donald Trump says to the world, well, we’re going to negotiate a better [climate] deal. I mean, you know, he’s going to go out and find a better deal? That’s like — I mean that’s like O.J. Simpson saying he’s going to go out and find the real killer. Everybody knows he’s not going doing to do that because he doesn’t believe in it. Because if he did believe in it, you wouldn’t pull out of Paris.”

Kerry’s strained analogy compared the president’s statement that he would seek to negotiate a better climate accord with Simpson’s vow to seek the “real killers.”

Perhaps a better comparison for OJ finding the “real killer” would be Kerry’s statement “we got 100 percent of the chemical weapons out” of Syria.
