“Trump said Monday that he doesn’t ‘think science knows, actually,’ CNN reported, despite the scientific evidence that shows climate change is making the fires worse.”
There it is. The only Trump quote has to be explicitly rejected in the very same sentence, lest we make the mistake of judging for ourselves.
Anti-Trump editorializing - disguised as fact-checking - has completely overwhelmed news reporting at all levels this cycle. Used to be they would report at least some straight answers, to maintain verisimilitude if nothing else. Now policy is: Let no Trump quote go unchallenged.
What scientific evidence? The same science that led viral expert Fauci to state we do NOT need masks, then changed his opinion?
