The Washington Post has published some silly editorials over the years, but perhaps none reach the pinnacle of silliness like the editorial they published today that accuses Donald Trump in being "complicit" in a hurricane. President Trump issued several warnings on his Twitter feed Monday, counseling those in Florence’s projected path to prepare and listen to local officials. That was good advice. Yet when it comes to extreme weather, Mr. Trump is complicit. He plays down humans’ role in increasing the risks, and he continues to dismantle efforts to address those risks. It is hard to attribute any single weather event to climate change. But there is no reasonable doubt that humans are priming the Earth’s systems to produce disasters. Even if you believe the theory of global warming, stating that there is "no reasonable doubt" that humans are responsible for any increase in hurricane intensity is either a statement of ignorance or an outright lie. Data for the years 1999-2009 are analysed and tested against long term data for the North Atlantic, Eastern Pacific, Western Pacific, Northern and Southern Indian oceans. It is concluded that Hurricane intensity and frequency is significantly higher in this period in the North Atlantic. However in the Eastern Pacific, Western Pacific, Northern and Southern Indian oceans, there is no evidence of signifi- cant change.Taken together, there appears to be no significant difference in either frequency or intensity of hurricanes globally. Repeating the analysis for 1999-2007 gives the same result and this conflicts with statements made in the IPCC 2007 report.

If we have a really bad winter in the North, can Toro thank President Trump for increased snow blower sales?
If there is global warming, it is caused by all the hot air belched from pundits like this.
The underlying theme from climate change fanatics and enviro facists is that man is the scourge of evolution. They seem to think that a world without humans would be a paradise, so the only humans worthy to exist in such a place would be those who could live without disturbing nature. Kind of like the Hollywood version of the Native American living in perfect harmony with nature, but with high tech.
Why stop with blaming him for Hurrican Florence? I think Trump gave Lee Harvey Oswald the rifle. He’s responsible for the JFK assassination!!
Insanity rules the media! But those who feed on it are brainless fools today. So little actual news and lots of propaganda and control of the masses.

It’s right next to the lever that controls gas prices.
