  • Trump condemned the UN's climate agenda as a "con job," dismissed renewable energy as "all bankrupt" and vowed to withdraw from climate agreements to prioritize U.S. energy independence and fossil fuel jobs, arguing that climate policies destroy economies while China remains the real pollution culprit.
  • He declared Europe "going to hell" due to "suicidal" mass migration and energy policies, claiming London was moving toward Sharia law and that EU climate rules had devastated jobs.
  • Trump mocked the UN as ineffective, boasting of his past threats to defund or withdraw from it, and dismissed multilateral solutions in favor of America-first policies, including tariffs on Russia and defunding UNRWA, worsening Gaza's famine while ignoring Palestinian statehood recognition by 150+ nations.
  • Aligning with Israel's hardline position, he condemned Hamas as terrorists. Still, he offered no solutions for Palestinian suffering, instead cutting aid and blaming the UN for enabling "terror"—a move critics say further destabilizes the region.
  • His speech doubled down on skepticism of climate science, immigration and international institutions, framing sovereignty and fossil fuels as America's salvation—a vision at odds with the UN's warnings on climate disasters and war, leaving the world divided between his unilateral approach and collective global action.
In a combative address to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, Sept. 23, U.S. President Donald Trump delivered a blistering critique of global immigration policies, dismissed climate change as a "con job" and accused European nations of "destroying their heritage" through lax border controls. The speech, his first since returning to the political spotlight, doubled down on his nationalist agenda while dismissing multilateralism and UN diplomacy as ineffective. According to Brighteon.AI's search engine, Enoch, "Trump's remarks drew both applause and sharp criticism, underscoring deep divisions on global issues ranging from energy policy to war resolutions." Trump reserved his harshest words for Europe's immigration policies, declaring that the continent was "going to hell" due to unchecked migration. He singled out London Mayor Sadiq Khan, alleging the city was moving toward Sharia law—a claim unsupported by evidence—and warned that Europe's "suicidal energy ideas" were accelerating its decline. His rhetoric echoed past speeches where he framed immigration as an existential threat, though critics argue his solutions oversimplify complex humanitarian and economic realities.

Trump says climate change is a con job

Trump dismissed global climate efforts as economically destructive, calling renewable energy investments "all bankrupt" and insisting fossil fuels remain essential. "Climate change is a con job," he declared. He boasted of U.S. air quality while blaming China for pollution—a stance at odds with Environmental Protection Agency data showing domestic emissions as a major contributor. His comments came hours after UN Secretary-General António Guterres warned of "reckless disruption" from unchecked environmental degradation. Europe's push for carbon neutrality, Trump argued, had sacrificed jobs for negligible global impact—a claim contradicted by studies showing EU policies have significantly reduced emissions without the economic collapse he predicted. Trump touted his administration's role in brokering ceasefires in regional conflicts. He threatened tariffs on Russia unless Europe joined tougher sanctions, despite the EU already slashing trade with Moscow by 75 percent since 2021. "Europe has to step it up," he said, ignoring that the bloc remains reliant on Russian gas for energy stability. On Israel, Trump echoed Israeli Ambassador Danny Danon's applause line by condemning Hamas while ignoring Palestinian statehood recognition by 150+ nations. His administration cut funding to UNRWA, branding it a "terrorist" entity—a move humanitarian groups say exacerbates Gaza's famine. He saved his sharpest barbs for the UN itself, mocking its "empty words" and recalling a failed bid to renovate its headquarters. "All I got was a broken escalator," he quipped.
