When President Trump announced he was withdrawing the U.S. from the Paris accords he told America he would renegotiate the accord to get a better deal and would put something together to do so with other nations. European leaders responded by saying there would be no renegotiation to the accord after all the work done between the parties over a long period of time
That left Trump alone against the world concerning climate change so now we hear from Trump's national security adviser H.R. McMaster who now says Trump left the door open to re-enter the Paris accords at some later time if there can be a better deal for the U.S. Trump found out he could not bully those members party to the accord and did not have the character to make the announcement himself to the people he serves.
It is typical of Trump's bad decisions by trying to talk tough and then having to reverse course and eat crow. He is also catching flack at home and abroad concerning his withdrawal because climate change is real. Trump, the candidate was willing to say anything during the campaign and now has to leave the mess to his appointees to answer. He finds he can not "tweet" himself out of trouble any more.
