A leading US Republican says she fears for the future of her seven grandchildren with Donald Trump in the White House.

Christine Todd Whitman, head of the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under George W Bush, accused Mr Trump of ignoring compelling science.

And she warned that his threat to scrap climate protection policies puts the world's future at risk. Trump supporters say rules on climate and energy are stifling business.

But Ms Todd Whitman says the US must find ways of promoting business without unduly harming the planet.

A “top Republican”? Whitman? She makes McCain look half-sane. She was aRINO before RINOs even existed.

What a pile.

What he's ignoring is compelling "science", not actual science.

The scary thing is, either she's really that stupid, or she's consciously lying.

Trump is going to kill the babies with second-hand smoke. Rosie O’Donnel is right- we’ve got to contact the lizard people in the earth’s core so we can join together telepathically to stop him before he takes office. It was all fortold on the emerald tablets

BBC is really on the ball with this. Whitman’s a left-winger who only used the GOP to sabotage it from within. No different than McQueeg or Willard.

“Top Republican”? Seriously? Who has even heard this clueless moron’s name mentioned in twenty years?

One of the biggest dumbasses to serve as governor in American history.

If she's a "top Republican," Alan Grayson is a "top Democrat."

When the USSR crashed, it was urgent to come up with another “problem” that required global action as part of the push to global government.

The fact that global warming policy also harms America is an added bonus for the traitorous liberals.

Oh . . . and it can stand in as a religion too since liberals usually have abandoned Christianity. Kind of a “Mother Earth is weeping” thing.

People that believe it are either young and brainwashed, or they are complete idiots (or both).

Once a RINO and stoopid, always a RINO and stoopid!
