    Trump will realize that climate change is real, but it won’t be something small like this. It will be something big like a huge heat wave. Scientists already believe there will be a super El Nino this year that will that produce drastic weather.

      Why the fuck is everything “Trump” or a USA related? It’s not even talked about in the article.

      China has 4x as many coal plants as the US and opened 50+ last year alone. The last one the US opened was in 2018. I didn’t vote for Trump, I don’t like Trump at all, but everything isn’t Trump or the US fault. Believe me, there’s enough bad shit the US is doing currently on its own.

        Let’s see if scientists are correct about a super El Nino this year. The resulting weather events might be something which has never occurred.

          Even if it does, he’s sufficiently insulated, literally and figuratively, that it won’t personally affect him. The White House kitchen won’t be running out of food, nor the air conditioning fail in his buildings or jets.
