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.

When they talked about “man-made” climate change, I didn’t realize the man they were talking about was Joe Biden.

All the more reason not to EVER vote for a Democrat!

A vote for ANY Democrat, whether it be in a local, state or federal election, is a vote against America!

America cannot survive a Democrat victory in 2020!

Maybe this Biden gaffe will be The Thing That Gets AlGore Back Into Running For President.

I mean, who better to lead the charge of the Democrap Party than AlGore? He almost made it last time, and that was only 20 years ago...

Is Joe disputing Al Gore’s claim to invention of the internet, too?

Was Joe Biden piloting the helicopter that Brian Williams got shot down aboard?

I suppose Joe will have to prove this by correcting Algore's statement that: "...the interior of the earth is extremely hot, several million degrees..." by citing the ACTUAL, measured temperature -- several BILLION degrees...

Go get 'em, Joe!
