Philanthropist Tom Steyer flipped his views on the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA) Tuesday during the Democratic debate after originally calling it “a win” in December.
Steyer was the first Democratic candidate to support the deal, Politico previously reported. He called it “a win for our great partners in labor and the American workers who fuel our economy.”
On the debate stage Tuesday, Steyer appeared to change his view and that he could never vote for USMCA because it doesn’t address climate change.
“So let me say this. I’m the only person on this stage who says climate is my number one priority,” Steyer said Tuesday. “I would not sign this deal, because if climate is your number one priority, you can’t sign a deal – even if it’s marginally better for working people – until climate is also taken into consideration.”
Moderators did not push back on his flip or note that he previously called the deal “a win.”
“I cannot allow this country to go down the path of climate destruction. Everybody in their generation knows it,” Steyer continued.

Wait…you mean to say that Tom Steyer’s a disingenuous phony? Gee, I didn’t see that coming.
Tom Steyer makes me agree with Crazy Bernie to tax those idiots, billionaires, to the death.
He reminds me of what you would see at a Carnival or Fair you shoot water into its mouth and cause a balloon to inflates and pop
The impeachment architect is going to look like a fool when the Senate
finally finishes this coup attempt off .
If the Democrats actually had a good candidate that wasn’t a left wing Marxist
or eco anarchist fraud they wouldn’t be relying on their Hail Mary impeachment stupidity .
We already knew that Tom Steyer is a climate change radical. This is further shown by his stand that everything must address climate change.
Trump’s economy is making Steyer and Bloomberg richer, day by day. Their mattresses are stuffed so full of hypocrisy, they sleep against the ceiling. They are not going to win office.
Right you are.
These hedge fund managers could have thrown darts at the stock lists as the markets went to new highs.
BUT. they think that it because they are so smart.
They fail to realize that most boats rise with the tide.
