Poll: Democrats Overwhelmingly Believe U.S. Has Only 12 Years to Fight Climate Change

Remember when Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claimed that if we don’t do something about climate change the world will end in 12 years, and then she faulted the GOP for taking her literally and not being able to take a joke? "You’d have to have the social intelligence of a sea sponge to think it’s literal," she tweeted earlier this month.

Well, apparently Democrats can’t take a joke either because according to a Rasmussen poll released today, a staggering 67 percent of Democrats believe Ocasio-Cortez’s climate change warning to be completely legit.

According to the poll, 48 percent of all likely voters agree that the United States has only twelve years left to fight climate change before the effects are irreversible. The poll did not identify Ocasio-Cortez or Bernie Sanders (who still believes the doomsday prediction to be true) while conducting the survey. According to the poll, 40 percent disagree with the prediction, and 11 percent are undecided.

SMDH! And gropin' joe is the leading can't-i-date in a growing field of 23. So, what does that tell us about the thought process of the party of tolerance and diversity. They should live on the Island of Moronica.

And every last one of them is “only joking”. Anyone with any social intelligence knows that.

Does this mean that after 12 years they promise not to talk about this crap anymore?

“Democrats Overwhelmingly Believe U.S. Has Only 12 Years to Fight Climate Change”

The rest of the country Overwhelmingly Believes Democrats Are Out of Their Cotton-Picking Minds

Someone must have clued her in that she’d term-limited herself.

This is clearly why the Left is always so depressed. Not only are they going to die in 12 years, Donald Trump will be president for half the time they have left! (I do love it so.)

For the second time in her short career, I agree with AOC....

48% of Americans "have the social intelligence of a sea sponge".

There are some things that the old guard of the Left isn’t going to like about their new electorate: most of them aren’t going to care about the environment, though they will probably go along with it if the gibs keep coming; they don’t care about the victim narratives of others. That second one is a HUGE problem, the first one is going to require a lot of client service to maintain.

Which is why they’re Democrats.

No, they do not believe this, because if the end was really 12 years away, nothing, NOTHING - could be done to stop it.

And, always always look at their solutions. The elite will not suffer.

At all.

Not much of a threat then, izzit?

If they don’t die from climate change after twelve-years, will they kill themselves anyway to fulfill the prophecy?

Didn’t they say that we passed “the point of no return” 2 years ago?

It’s too late to do anything about it so I’m going to burn a pile of tires.
