"Trump 2.0 will probably do so again [pull out of the Paris agreement], perhaps on Trump’s first day in power."

"Based on his first term, we can expect him to withdraw the United States from the Paris Agreement."

"The first expectation after Trump's inauguration on January 20 is a U.S. withdrawal from the Paris Agreement on climate."

"Trump will no doubt pull out [of the Paris climate agreement] again."

"I'm immediately withdrawing from the unfair, one-sided Paris climate accord rip-off."

"If the U.S. withdraws from the WHO, it would severely weaken global health initiatives, disrupt pandemic preparedness efforts, and diminish U.S. influence over international health policy."

"If the United States is no longer a member of WHO, Americans around the world would be more susceptible to disease, but they could also carry it back to the United States and infect multitudes."

"It means we are going to see a lot more disease outbreaks become regional and global, and we will see more disease outbreaks from other countries coming into the U.S."

"The bottom line is that withdrawing from the WHO makes Americans and the world less safe."

"Public health disasters that don't have to happen will happen, because those capacities aren't there anymore [because of the US withdrawal from the WHO]."

"President Trump's decision to withdraw from the WHO could have life-threatening consequences for people in the humanitarian contexts where we work as well as in the US."
