Ramaswamy confronts MSNBC host on climate change
FoxNews ^ | August 30, 2023 8:00am EDT | Gabriel Hays Fox News

Posted on 08/30/2023 10:08:08 AM PDT by entropy12

During a recent appearance on MSNBC, 2024 Republican presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy pushed back on MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell’s claim that climate change has resulted in the deaths of two million people in the last 50 years.

Ramaswamy argued the evidence shows technology powered by fossil fuels has reduced the amount of climate-related deaths by 98%.

He also criticized Mitchell’s anecdotal evidence that because some Floridians have claimed to have never seen a hurricane as bad as Hurricane Idalia, it meant climate change is a potent threat.

This was hilarious.

I have multiple issues with Ramaswamy, but this was fun.

Floridians have claimed to have never seen a hurricane as bad as Hurricane Idalia?

Really?

Yeah, many just got off the boat from WI, MN, OH, MI, PA and NY.

First of all, earth’s climate has been changing for 5 Billion years. We had ice ages and global warming cycles to end ice ages again and again. This was long before use of fossil fuels by humans.

What is a hoax is MAN MADE CLIMATE CHANGE.
The million times bigger than earth, our Sun is the cause of climate change. Because Sun also has cycles in it’s nuclear fusion process.

He might make good media spokesman in Trump’s administration

He’s pretty good , but I wish he would have shut down UpChuck’s racist riff about white male shooters by just saying, “you’re whiter than I am.”

Maybe it’s the Floridians that just vote there, but not actually live there?

He should have shut off the circuit breakers to the MSNBC building—and shown the clowns what it is like to really fight climate change....

;-)

I am voting Trump all the way, however, Rammy is making this primary season much more exciting. Can you imagine how boring the first debate on Fox News would have been without Ramaswamy present on the debate stage? Those 7 others would just agree with each other on most topics.

You cannot yield an inch to these people or they will swallow a mile. Hosts that I like, including Shapiro , klavan (sp) and Solomon give this wishy washy opinion that maybe there’s a human component to climate change. Even if that is true, which is not proven, the other side will use the slightest acknowledgement of harm to break und rule us. Go Vivek. Yield nothing

He shut down the circuit breakers in that idiot’s head.

The only thing he left off was NASA saying we’re having weird weather from that unprecedented underwater volcano.

There are so FEW so-called conservatives who are willing to voice heterodox ideas against the stupid MSM/Govt narrative, take the slings and arrows - AND respond cogently and convincingly

Trump and Ramaswamy have proven to me the GOP leadership are 99% controlled deep-state cucks.

Yeah, regarding chuktok’s interview w/ Ram, poor Vivek was kept on defense b/c of chuk’s quotes pulled from Vivek’s book, which is only about 9 mo. old, where he likened 2020 election irregularity issues to the whining done by liberals. Quote after quote.

He got his a$$ handed to him on that one. He can’t say “you’re quoting me from a decade ago”.

Florida has been around for a Billion years.
Humans in Florida able to record climate have been around for may be 250 years. That is = 0.000025% of time Florida has been around. How idiotic it is to extrapolate with 0.000025% of data?

Sustained Winds: Andrew 175 MPH, Idalia 125 MPH

Lowest pressure: Andrew 922 mbar, Idalia 940 mbar

But yeah, Idalia is the worst hurricane EVAH!!!
