Joe Biden claims he 'started this whole thing' on climate change

Joe Biden says he was the guy who “started this whole thing” on climate change, which may come as a surprise to Al Gore.

Former Vice President Biden was asked Saturday by an activist with the US Youth Climate Strike if he would support a presidential climate debate hosted by her group, at which point he jumped in to tout his global-warming bona fides.

“By the way, I want you to know: I’m the guy that did all this stuff—read RealClearPolitics, it will tell you about how I started this whole thing back in ’87 with climate change,” he said at a campaign stop in video posted online.

Asked if he would commit to being a leader, he said, “I guarantee I’ll be a leader.”

His claim to be the one who “started this whole thing back in ’87” met with mockery on social media, but it’s not the first time Mr. Biden has trumpeted his early action on climate change as he comes under fire by the environmental left for being too moderate.

And remember Biden was put IN CHARGE of facilitating the startup of obamacare. Fine job there Joe!

No one seems to remember or mention this failure item. Just a reminder.

Joe 6-Pk will have to explain to voters in the rust belt “that their jobs are not ever coming back, but not to worry, the government will re-train you for a green job.”

Al Gore invented the internet. Al can’t claim both the internet and climate change.

Besides I can’t think of anything that would damage the climate change movement (other than facts) more than Biden taking credit for it.

Best BOL on this thread and maybe the day!:

Joe was working on this when Gore was inventing the internet.

So, BiteMe is a colossal liar, too!

Let him claim ‘climate change,’ or global warming’ = LOL

He’s pandering to AOC and the Lefties! Very funny and proves he’s no different from Bernie!
