Trump jokes and mocks about Freezing weather that could kill people without heat..........

[riversedge]

Trump really has no soul. And when will enough Actually BE enough??
Seriously--check on your neighbors --if you can in this Freezing weather if electricity goes out.
But care for yourself also. This weather is truly dangerous--here is mid WI, it is 25 degrees Below Zero with a windchill close to 50 below
Stay safe


Trump: "Record Cold Wave expected to hit 40 States. Rarely seen anything like it before. Could the Environmental Insurrectionists please explain — WHATEVER HAPPENED TO GLOBAL WARMING???"

That is all

[PJMcK]

19. Once again Trump shows his stupidity

Global warming is not local weather.

Trump is an idiot.

[eppur_se_muova]

39. But stupidity is a pox, which can ruin the lives of even those immune to infection. nt

[North Shore Chicago]

3. Well.....

What do we expect from this human-like reject? When will he be put out of our misery?

[Lovie777]

4. shithole and comrades don't care....................

p.s. FEMA is basically dismantled.

[Diamond_Dog]

5. I hear the same thing from local MAGAts.

Whatever happened to global warming, *snicker snicker*

[travelingthrulife]

14. They don't understand how anything works.

[SergeStorms]

25. Now wait a minute......

they can strip down an AR-15 and put it back together blindfolded in less than 5 minutes.

"They don't understand how anything works,"

[Diamond_Dog]

31. No, they don't. And they remain too willfully ignorant to want to learn anything scientific or factual.

[Wednesdays]

16. This infamous scene

[Emile]

35. Welcome to du. Enjoy your stay.

[surfered]

36. The next thing you know, a Senator will bring a snowball to the Senate floor, claiming the planet is not warming.

Oh right, that’s been done

[Emile]

37. That sounds like a senator Library Girl would vote for.

[spanone]

6. Yes, he is that fucking stupid.

[riversedge]

7. -dangerously stupid!!

[sop]

8. Trump can throw snowballs from the podium at the SOTU address, like crazy Senator Inhofe...

[milestogo]

9. It is 16 below zero this morning.

Fortunately i don't have to go anywhere except to take the dog out. But those 2 minutes were brutal.

[littlemissmartypants]

13. Oh no! What state?

[snowybirdie]

10. Answer may be

Check back with me in August on the Gulf coast.

[ColoringFool]

11. IT IS PROPERLY TERMED "CLIMATE CHANGE." THAT'S WHAT "HAPPENED."

[niyad]

12. Properly "CATASTROPHIC CLIMATE CHANGE", generally called C3.

[johnnyfins]

15. I see insurrectionist is a new favorite Donald

word. He's just a dick.

[Boomerproud]

38. What to do with insurrectionists? The name calling keeps getting worse.

We used to say that people we disagreed with were wrong-headed. Now it's civil war coming straight from "on high".

[BradBo]

17. Feeding the MAGA base.

He probably knows the difference between weather and climate.
He’s just feeding his ignorant base that dosent.

[catbyte]

18. That jackass doesn't know how tariffs work

how can he be expected to know the difference between climate and weather?

What a goddammed embarrassment.

[BaronChocula]

20. Like the person on layover at Seatac

on a sunny day and says "so all that talk about rain was bullshit."

[Ol Janx Spirit]

21. It's funny how these denialists can look at the stock market going up and not see a one-day plunge...

...as complete and total proof that the stock market isn't really setting records, but they see a cold snap during a string of years in which the record for hot days is consistently broken as complete and total proof that global warming doesn't exist.

Yet, if we said, "Record Drop in the Stock market today. Rarely seen anything like it before. Could the Genius Wall Street Traders please explain — WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE RECORD STOCK MARKET???", we would be roundly mocked.

But that is exactly what is happening here.....

[REDACTED] these [REDACTED] idiots....

[maliaSmith]

22. Cold weather

And here I'm bitching about it being 48 on the Monterey Bay. My heart goes out to my fellow DU readers who live in the cold part of the country. Stay safe, keep warm. For those that live in the area where ICE is doing their evil towards my fellow humans, don't serve them in restaurants, stores or hotel. Turn your car alarm on when you see these evil people.

[flashman13]

23. Meanwhile, most of the west, especially the centeral western states, have had no winter at all.

I've lived here for 50+ years and have never seen anything remotely like this. Last week we had a string of 50 degree sunny days. Two days ago we had a dusting of snow. That is the first precipitation in weeks and even then it was rain rather than snow. Local mountains that should be solid white are bare. Ski resorts are for the most part hurting. You can't make snow when it doesn't get below freezing even at night. Unless there is some sort of major change in precipitation, this year will see a disastrous drought. After taking economic hits farmers and ranchers are going to take a weather hit. It's -1 this morning. That is only the second time this winter that it has been that cold and that only lasted two days. The forecast is we will be back in the 40s by Monday.

In summary - Trump is an idiot.

[czarjak]

24. WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO LOSE?

SoChrist-Like2

[Maru Kitteh]

26. This reads like someone imitating 2018-Trump. Doesn't sound like 2026 Cankles.

Has he (or one of his writers) been using “environmental insurrectionists” before or is this new?

[OLDMDDEM]

27. Trump is so naive.

[keep_left]

28. He's done this before. Anyone remember this one?

Here's a Tweet from 2019, before Trump had his moronic "Truth" web-shite. Trump's de rigueur misspelling ( "Waming" ) is the additional cherry on top.

[W_HAMILTON]

29. And I don't hear them say shit the rest of the time when we're continually breaking records for the hottest years ever.

This shit is as stupid as saying someplace can't be in a drought because it rained one day.

Entirely on brand for these MAGA morons.

[Cirsium]

30. Environmental Insurrectionists???

That is ominous.

[ChicagoTeamster]

32. Most MAGAts are racist, and anti science,

34. "Environmental Insurrectionists" -- so anyone who disagrees with F47 or the GOP generally gets branded a traitor?

This is some exceedingly dangerous territory, but I doubt F47 has the power consolidation needed to successfully navigate the terrain. I've underestimated F47 before though, maybe support from 1/3 of the population + the entire federal government is enough to begin the thought-crime extermination process. They'll want to move quickly when they're ready, but if they move too soon they lose even more support.
