Pandemic had no effect on emissions

Absolute nonsense and lies. There are sooo many photos of cities without pollution for the first time. Some of them showing Mt Everest or the Himalayan Mountains from like 20 miles away which is a first since the industrial revolution. It absolutely DID impact emmissions.

The coronavirus pandemic made the accelerating impacts of global heating even worse for millions of people

lulwut? Someone contradictory much?

This "article" complete nonsense and lies.

The pandemic shut so many things down it was almost horrifying, no driving, nothing much of anything.... and the problems increased.

This says one of two things, maybe both since they're not mutually exclusive:

  1. The climate change issue is not driven by humanity
  2. The changes are already in a feedback loop and we can't do anything about it.

In either case, Trump was doing the right thing by eliminating restrictions caused by reducing pollution in order to fortify the US's position globally and increase our reserves, strengthen military positions, and industries.

You're misrepresenting the data

Pandemic had no effect on emissions (you)

vs

The temporary dip in carbon emissions due to lockdowns had no discernible impact on atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases (article)

It's worth reading the article.
