BONKERS: Krugman Says Charles Koch Wants Barrett to ‘Destroy The Planet’
NewsBusters ^ | 10/14/2020 | Joseph Vazquez

Posted on 10/14/2020 10:14:34 AM PDT by JV3MRC

New York Times economist Paul Krugman is at it again. He’s promoting a conspiracy theory that libertarian billionaire Charles Koch wants U.S. Supreme Court nominee Judge Amy Coney Barrett to — wait for it — destroy the planet.

Sounds like Krugman may have been watching too much Star Wars.

Promoting a Times article headlined, “Charles Koch’s Big Bet on Barrett,” Krugman tweeted: “This analysis got somewhat lost in the shuffle, but Charles Koch is going big for Barrett — not bc he hopes she'll destroy Roe or the ACA, but because he hopes she'll destroy the planet.”

Destroy the planet? No, just scrape the crust off and throw it into the sun to allow us to live on the molten mantle.

You have to be insane to believe CO2 can destroy the planet, Krugman needs a rubber room.

The shrill shill Krugman is merely regurg'ing DNC/AGW talking points.

If that slug has any value at all, it’s as a negative example.

Krugman is a perfect example of people who have paying jobs but are completely moronic and unproductive. A seat warmer.

The one thing he can't do is give The Slimes a bad name, it already had that.

“The power to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force,” Koch’s spokesman said in reply.

Are Freepers going to start defending the Kochs?

Not me. I don’t have a dog in this fight. The Kochs and Krugman are both anti-Trump, from what I interpret

What a Jackwagon! Krugman doesn’t know his Nobel from his Fermi.

All the left can do is hyperbolae about anything and everything. Since they have already got to the end of the planet, I suppose the solar system in now in jeopardy, soon to be followed by destroying our galaxy.

I do not see how ACB will be getting as much power as this really stupid *ss h*les believes she has. but I guess it appeals to the marvel comic books fans

Krugman needs to shut up and put up. He needs to do his part in reducing CO2 emissions. Follow the science Krugman, stop breathing.

The left makes claims that repubs want to destroy the planet. So based on that where would the repubs go after they have destroyed our planet?

Meanwhile, the dims want to destroy our Constitution and our way of life with out thinking that they will have to live in the hell hole they have created.

Just proving more examples of what we have known for a long time - Krugman is nuts.

Is anybody here old enough to remember when Krugman was right about anything?

I don’t plan on defending the Kochs, either, but now I can call Krugman an anti-Semite for attacking them.
