Democrats Get Heated Over Trump's Global Warming Tweet
"Bundle up!"

The Left lost their minds Thursday night after President Donald Trump said the northeastern United States "could use a little global warming" to return the weather to a more livable temperature:
"In the East, it could be the COLDEST New Year’s Eve on record. Perhaps we could use a little bit of that good old Global Warming that our Country, but not other countries, was going to pay TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS to protect against. Bundle up!"
Trump tweeted the notion around 6 p.m. The left-wing reactionaries weren't far behind. Their outrage, as par for the course, was of the "moral" variety, provided in part by Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren:
"I’m going to say something really crazy: I believe in science. Climate change is real and we have a moral obligation to protect this Earth for our children and grandchildren."
Warren's tweet, of course, is based on a fallacy: "science" does not unanimously subscribe to global warming. Furthermore, did she believe in the "science" of the 70's? Or was that science also "really crazy?"
That was the opinion of "experts."
The Left is too distracted to consider such things; they're busy with hysteria, as indicated by their responses to Trump's tweet. Enter California Senator Kamala Harris and Rhode Island Senator Sheldon Whitehouse:
This is just embarrassing. It’s clear facts don’t matter to you, but here’s the new climate report from your administration that affirms climate change is caused by human activity, and has serious health, economic, and environmental consequences. Read it. twitter.com/realdonaldtrum…
Climate change is real and it poses a grave threat to our nation and our planet. It’s abundantly clear this Adminstration won’t tackle climate change head on, so state and local governments must. twitter.com/realDonaldTrum…
New York Representative Kathleen Rice joined the scientists, throwing in the bizarre assertion that no one is allowed to make a comment about the weather unless they disseminate information on how to protect one's homes and pets, and instruct people where to find shelter -- are the homeless on Twitter?
Instead of tweeting like a child who hates science class, if you're so worried about the cold you could always send your 45M+ followers info about how to find shelter, prevent hypothermia & frost bite, prevent pipes from freezing, protect their pets, etc. twitter.com/realDonaldTrum…
Washington Representative Pramila Jayapal took time to womansplain:
In 2017, there were about three record high temperatures in the U.S. for every record low temperature. Weather is not the same as climate. The president should be able to understand that. It isn't hard. nasa.gov/mission_pages/…twitter.com/realDonaldTrum…
And the snowball -- I mean, heat wave -- continued:
Denying Donald doesn’t understand science. His ignorance is our loss. twitter.com/realdonaldtrum…
While Trump struggles to understand the difference between temperature and climate, we must take action in our own communities. We can’t afford to wait. Thank you Broward County #Mayors4CleanEnergy twitter.com/realdonaldtrum…
Either @realDonaldTrump doesn't understand the science behind climate change, or he is intentionally misleading the American people. Also, Merry Christmas (even though today is Dec 28) because the President says we can say that again (even though we have always been saying it). twitter.com/realDonaldTrum…
Perhaps the above congressional scientists should read this article instead of spending so much time on Twitter.
