Cruz is 100% correct.

...Michael Bloomberg...trashed two top-tier Republican presidential candidates in a CNN interview airing Friday.
After dismissing "right-wing crazies" who reject mainstream climate science, Bloomberg was asked by CNN's Christiane Amanpour what he made of the GOP field.
...
"There's one of them who was a surgeon, unfortunately at Johns Hopkins, who doesn't believe in science," Bloomberg said. "Somebody said that's like a business executive that doesn't believe in profits."
Bloomberg then said that Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas had said some of the "stupidest" things about climate change despite his intellect. He noted that Cruz's intelligence had been praised by Alan Dershowitz, a prominent US attorney who was once Cruz's Harvard professor.
"You've got a guy like Ted Cruz - who I think Dershowitz said was the smartest law student he ever had - and he says some of the stupidest things I've ever heard," Bloomberg said. "The only explanation - the only explanation - is he doesn't believe it; he's just saying it."
He added: "Ted Cruz is a smart guy, and you can't say what he says in an intelligent way."
Cruz, who has surged in recent primary polls, has not shied away from criticizing mainstream climate science.
"If you look at satellite data for the last 18 years, there's been zero recorded warming," Cruz said in August, according to Time magazine. "The satellite says it ain't happening ... I'm saying that data and facts don't support it."
Reached for comment on Bloomberg's criticism, Cruz campaign spokesman Rick Tyler dismissed the former mayor as a "myopic" elitist.
"The myopic Mr. Bloomberg should look past his armed guards and beyond his cloistered circumstances and take in a big gulp of reality," Tyler told Business Insider. "Most of what Ted Cruz says is simple common sense. Most of what Mr. Bloomberg says defies logic."

Not likely. Bloomberg has a net worth 4x that of the Paris Hilton of politics.
And, so it begins...with Cruz moving up in the polls, the Lefty vermin have started coming out of the woodwork. Hopefully, Ted is prepared for the onslaught!
“Would that be the same Bloomberg who Trump labeled as “Brilliant”? Yes, I believe it is.”
Billionaires/millionaires stick together - they live in a different world than we do.
At a Cruz gathering a couple of days ago, he said about Obama and climate change global warming(paraphrasing), “Obama thinks the SUV in your driveway is more of a danger than ISIS.” I think that statement is what Bloomberg was referring to.
Kehoe: Bloomberg says some of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard.

Dang. I had NO IDEA Bloomy Boy was worth that much. Thanks for the correction/info.
/stunned — or is that stuned? LOL
Well there has been a little insignificant warming, probably within the margin of instrumentation error. But Cruz is mostly correct here, 95%. Those claiming accelerating warming are 100% incorrect.
Actually, he wasn't. He was referring to Bloomberg's dedication to using his wealth to disarm law-abiding American citizens.
Donald Trump Praises 'Brilliant' Mayor Bloomberg For 'Putting His Money Where His Mouth Is' On Guns
You’re beeber is twitching.
I remember that bit of info back from when Bloomberg used $100 million of his fortune to buy his reelection as mayor. Now that, to him, was pocket change.
22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools,
23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.
24 Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. 26 For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.
28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.
29 They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips,
30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents,
31 foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless.
32 Though they know God's righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.
We are witnessing a worldwide sweep of events that can only be described as a mass delusion. Oh, wait... 2 Thessalonians 2 describes the Great Apostasy in its final phase:
11 And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie,
12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
LOL. I knew at least one FRiend would catch the reference!
This thread is about Bloomberg and climate change, not guns. Bloomberg was talking about Cruz's comments on climate change.
lol! Right.
Trend = -0.00 degrees C.
The satelitte data show absolutely no warming.
Cruz is 100% correct.
He should run for president as a Republican too. Nobody can buy him, either.
Indeed. Bloomberg is absolute proof that the ability to get wealthy - and general over all intelligence - are quite often NOT RELATED at all.......
yeah,and he’d give up half of it if he could just be three inches taller. That would put him at about five foot two.
Future history: Michael Bloomberg’s estate has been converted into a maximum security mental institution to be called Arkham Asylum.
