Dan Rather Asks tRump Whether It Is More Maginal to Believe in Santa or Deny Climate Change




The president reiterated that he didn't believe in climate science last month after his administration released a report noting the intensification of climate change across the U.S.

"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 said. "As to whether or not it’s man-made and whether or not the effects that you’re talking about are there, I don’t see it."

The month before, while alleging that climate scientists are motivated by politics, the president said, "I have a natural instinct for science, and I will say that you have scientists on both sides of the picture."

and who hearing that thinks, yes, this is someone who is very smart? It flabbergasts me that some people seem incapable of recognizing what dangerously stupid blowhard this asshole is.

On the upside, I love Dan Rather.
