Shitstain Took Time To Display His Ignorance On Renewables; "A Dangerous, Evil Clown" - Michael Mann

EDIT

Scientists responded angrily to President Donald Trump’s anti-renewable energy claim that people would have to turn off their TV sets if there wasn’t enough wind to power turbines. Addressing an audience at an Army tank factory in Lima, Ohio, on Wednesday afternoon, the president appeared to confuse windmills with wind turbines in his speech repeatedly. Taking on the persona of a man watching TV with his partner, Trump said, “When the wind doesn’t blow, just turn off the television darling, please. There’s no wind, please turn off the television quickly.”

The president also joked “solar’s wonderful too, but it’s not strong enough, and it’s very very expensive.” He did not elaborate on what he meant by “strong.” Trump took a second swipe at wind power when he argued that building wind turbines near homes would affect property prices.

EDIT

“Disgust” was the word Michael Mann, a professor of atmospheric science at Pennsylvania State University, used when asked by Newsweek for his initial reaction to Trump’s comments. “Trump is a clown, but a dangerous, evil clown. He would happily mortgage the future of our children and grandchildren for the short-term profit of those,” he told Newsweek.

“There’s no evidence that being in sight of a windmill decreases property values,” Mann said. “But you know what does decrease property values?” asked the professor. “Unprecedented floods, wildfires and inundation by sea level rise and more ferocious tropical storms, all of which are exacerbated by human-caused climate change which, in turn, is caused by our reliance on fossil fuels.”

1. Shitstain only cares about appeasing his ignorant base. His ignorant base

doesn't take climate change seriously because they will likely be dead before the worst effects are felt. They close their eyes and ears to the facts and to the evidence that nature is demonstrating right now. They seem incapable of imagining what life on this planet will be like for the generations who follow us if we don't act now to address climate change.

What is really sad, most of their attitude is just because they want to "stick it to the libbies". Their hate rules their lives.
