Trump Says His 'Very High Levels of Intelligence' Means He Can't Believe in Climate Change

What a flaming stupid asshole!!!

"Trump Says His 'Very High Levels of Intelligence' Means He Can't Believe in Climate Change, Scientists Despair"

Scientists have reacted with dismay to President Donald Trump’s assertion that he was not among the “believers” in the seriousness of climate change.

His administration released a dense report compiled by 13 federal agencies last week that painted a bleak picture of the severity of the impact of climate change on the lives of Americans, and the U.S. economy.

But Trump dismissed it.

“One of the problems that a lot of people like myself, we have very high levels of intelligence but we’re not necessarily such believers,” Trump told The Washington Post in an interview in the Oval Office.

With his low level of intelligence he hasn't a clue , so he just makes this crap up as he goes along. Think opposite when he says anythig. When he accuses others think he's doing it.
