“Donald Trump now has the unflattering distinction of being the only head of state in the entire world to reject the scientific consensus that mankind is driving climate change. ””

Much like Galileo rejecting the political and religious consensus that the earth was the center of the universe.

Yes. And he did it even though earth-as-center-of-the-universe was SETTLED SCIENCE.

And by the way, it was SCIENTISTS of the day, more than the church that pushed the earth-centric view.

Both Galileo and Copernicus were hated much more by the CONSENSUS SCIENTISTS of their day than by the church.
