US President Donald Trump has rehashed his outsider campaign that overcame long odds to predict a big win in 2020, and slammed Democrats and the Russia probe. 9News
"I think the New Green Deal or whatever the hell they call it – the Green New Deal – I encourage it," Mr Trump said mockingly as he wound up for a round of exaggeration.
He mocked Democrats for their framework to combat climate change and said House lawmakers pushing to expand their investigations of him are "sick". The Democratic plan calls for a drastic drop in greenhouse-gas emissions from fossil fuels such as oil, coal and natural gas, but in no way grounds airplanes or pivots the country to renewable energy only.
"This phoney thing looks like it's dying so they don't have anything with Russia there, no collusion," Mr Trump said of the Russia probe. As he looked back to 2016, the president described himself as "probably more of a conservative than a Republican" but says people just didn't understand that.
