No one was surprised that Trump pulled out of the Paris Agreement. He was promising to do that throughout his campaign and given how environmentally unfriendly Trump is, both in political aspirations and how toxic he is to humanity in general, no one is allowed to say that they were surprised.
What is a little interesting however is that there are people in his office who did oppose the exit and the fact that his two favorite relatives (quietly) oppose the exit as well. At the very least, it does give some hope that there will be some resistance to any environmental issues that Trump will inevitably propose.
Because the problem with people like Trump is simple. He's old and he's not going to be living in this world for long. They don't care about the future; they only care about the present. Why should I care about my grandkids, people like him says. I do the shit and they can clean it up for all I care.
So...yes, it's somewhat okay that there will be some restraining efforts but at the same time, don't count too much about those things. Trump will get his way and a lot of Republicans are assholes when it comes the environment. If only because they get to make more money that way.
