It's Been Nearly A Year Since Shitstain Tweeted Something Stupid About Climate, Global Warming
Must be his new "policy".
EDIT
The last time Trump mocked climate science was on March 12, 2019, when he quoted Patrick Moore, who rejected mainstream research while appearing on "Fox and Friends." "The whole climate crisis is not only Fake News, it's Fake Science," Moore said, according to the president's tweet.
A few weeks earlier, Trump used his Twitter account to raise personal objections about climate science. The tweet, on Feb. 10, 2019, marked the last time Trump used Twitter to malign climate change in his own words. He was commenting on Sen. Amy Klobuchar's (D-Minn.) entrance into the presidential race. She made the announcement during a snowstorm. "Well, it happened again. Amy Klobuchar announced that she is running for President, talking proudly of fighting global warming while standing in a virtual blizzard of snow, ice and freezing temperatures. Bad timing. By the end of her speech she looked like a Snowman(woman)!" Trump tweeted.
His attacks on science aside, Trump has used Twitter to object to climate-related policies in the past year. He defended his decision to pull out of the Paris Agreement, which he said "protects the polluters," and he retweeted a campaign staffer who said that Democrats' "plan for climate change is to eliminate more than 1 million jobs."
The nearly yearlong gap without climate science criticism is notable, considering that Trump has ridiculed and misrepresented climate science since he opened his Twitter account in 2009. And yet, the silence is not without precedent. In 2015, Trump abruptly stopped mocking climate science on Twitter after he announced his presidential campaign. The Twitter silence lasted through the election. His criticism started again after he won the presidency, though at a far reduced pace compared with the dozens of times each year that Trump mocked climate science on his Twitter account in the years leading up to his candidacy.
Trump's current Twitter lull might be a messaging strategy, said Riley Dunlap, a sociologist at Oklahoma State University who studies public opinions about environmental policy. Or maybe he's just preoccupied. "I think most likely his attention has been on other things, like impeachment. I would not put it past him to continue making some very silly, misleading comments on climate change," he said. "I would be surprised if he can hold himself back."
