Jerry Brown predicts ‘negative, and very powerful’ reaction if Donald Trump halts climate action

In his global evangelism about the threat of climate change, Gov. Jerry Brown has dismissed skeptics as “troglodytes” and “deniers of the obvious science.”

But Brown, who in recent years has emerged as a premier climate warrior, has refused to ascribe those characteristics to Donald Trump since his election as president, despite the Republican businessman’s support for fossil fuels and repeated dismissals of climate change as a hoax perpetrated by the Chinese.

In brief remarks about the subject, Brown said Monday that it would be difficult for the U.S. to “go rogue” on climate change. He went further Tuesday in a broadcast discussion with former Vice President Al Gore, predicting a “negative and very powerful” backlash throughout the world should Trump continue to voice his denials and impede the environmental progress of the last eight years.

“I don’t think given the science and given the rising concern that that is a sustainable political trajectory – even for the president of the United States,” he said.

Every single employee of the EPA serves at the President's pleasure.

Every single climate deal has never been ratified by the US Senate and has no binding effect on any President, including the one that signed it.

You do the math.

I predict that Trump will be wildly popular when he ends the farce of the global warming industry.

A “powerful reaction” by people who don’t believe in powerful anything.

Has any climate prediction of a global warmer ever come true?

I thought not. False prophets.

Jerry Brown has made some terrible predictions over the years.

One, if you commute 2300 murder’s sentences, it will work out for the best.

Need I list more?

Well Jerry, you can still unplug your mansion and jets and cars.

Doesn’t mean all you SJWs can’t do your part and go without.
