Yeah, he is a pretty smart guy but the others were all sciencey types. An MD, PhD geneticist and an IP lawyer. They are fun.
Although the history major is a litigator, my guess he could make Climate Sanity cry on the witness stand.

It was almost the lowest watched Emmys ever, barely missed.
Hurricane Jose is off the east coast and Hurricane Maria has been upgraded to a category 5.
I'm sure the residents of Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Florida and Puerto Rico will all ignore the warnings of those leftist, perverted, fascist meteorologists and "think for themselves!"

It's been a real sight to watch the increasing willingness of right-wing politicians to indulge and encourage their base's fantisism.
This from a guy who told us confidently that climate change is a Chinese hoax. And he's never heard of a category 5 hurricane? As a septuagenarian? It's amazing. It's a good thing we're listening to the real experts.
It confuses me he would not know such basic information. :idunno:
Yeah, but what is it on the Richter Scale?

You can't make this stuff up...
There's a part of me that wonders if it's a put-on. His base didn't want an elitist who knows things and tells the truth. They wanted someone who would tell them the lies they want to hear. It could well be tactical ignorance, as much a part of his messaging strategy as hating on Mexicans.
Or maybe he's just really that dumb.

I think he really is.
I have no trouble believing either. His messaging strategy is a kind of genius, at times. There's simply no regard for truth. There's a lot of sly, malignant manipulation, of the press, of who he sees as his political enemies, and of the general public.

I understand that. I do think he's adept at pitting people against each other.
But the genius part... in my opinion anything he did that could be labeled genius - he backed into it.
No, he is not dumb, he is just not as bright as some assumed. All that 'common man' and cap wearing. It is very silly to those who know. When he said he did not know who David Duke was, i was taken back. How could he not know someone as much in the media? It was too much to take seriously.
0.5 degrees C could result in as much as a meter of sea level rise.
According to current models, if we do not address the rate of emissions of carbon dioxide, sea level rise will accelerate to 6cm per year. This would actually be quite destructive, and there is actually a lot we can do right now. But once it's in the pipeline, you can't stop it.
Well, when he claimed not to have known David Duke, it was actually shown that he did. Or at least he'd mentioned him before. So, some of the stupidity is deliberate and tactical. He doesn't feel that he owes anyone the truth, unless he's under a legal obligation where lying could land him in jail.
It's not proven, it's theoretical speculation costing trillions of dollars.
Wrong.
