Background
The title of the documentary refers to the phrase used by President Trump on June 1, 2017 in his withdrawal speech delivered in the White House Rose Garden in which he announced that he was pulling the United States out of the Paris Agreement. Trump said, "I was elected to represent the citizens of Pittsburgh, not Paris." In response, Bill Peduto, Mayor of Pittsburgh, wrote: "As the Mayor of Pittsburgh, I can assure you that we will follow the guidelines of the Paris Agreement for our people, our economy and future."According to the PennLive June 1, 2017 article, while Trump carried enough voters in some parts of Pennsylvania, especially the southwest corner, Trump actually lost the vote in the city of Pittsburgh itself.
