Donald Trump doesn't know the difference between climate and weather
Clinton News Network ^ | Updated 9:23 PM ET, Thu December 28, 2017 | Analysis by Chris Cillizza, CNN Editor-at-large

Posted on 12/28/2017 8:41:55 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

(CNN)At 8 p.m. Thursday, after a third straight day of golf at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, and the temperature was 72 degrees, President Donald Trump tweeted this:

"In the East, it could be the COLDEST New Year's Eve on record. Perhaps we could use a little bit of that good old Global Warming that our Country, but not other countries, was going to pay TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS to protect against. Bundle up!"

The "logic" at work here is simple: How can climate change, aka global warming, be real if it is so cold outside?

Trump tweets that 'cold' East Coast 'could use a little bit of' global warming It's the same sort of "logic" that led Oklahoma Sen. Jim Inhofe (R) to bring a snowball onto the Senate floor in late February 2015 as a supposed counterweight to claims of global warming. Toting his snowball in one hand, Inhofe, who was the chairman of the Environment and Public Works Committee at the time, said:

"In case we have forgotten, because we keep hearing that 2014 has been the warmest year on record, I asked the chair, do you know what this is? It's a snowball just from outside here. So it's very, very cold out. Very unseasonable."

According to Mr. Cillizza, hot weather is climate but cold weather is just weather.

Physicist Howard Hayden's one-letter disproof of global warming claims [pre-Climategate]

Dear Administrator Jackson:

I write in regard to the Proposed Endangerment and Cause or Contribute Findings for Greenhouse Gases Under Section 202(a) of the Clean Air Act, Proposed Rule, 74 Fed. Reg. 18,886 (Apr. 24, 2009), the so-called "Endangerment Finding."

It has been often said that the "science is settled" on the issue of CO2 and climate. Let me put this claim to rest with a simple one-letter proof that it is false.

The letter is s, the one that changes model into models. If the science were settled, there would be precisely one model, and it would be in agreement with measurements.

Alternatively, one may ask which one of the twenty-some models settled the science so that all the rest could be discarded along with the research funds that have kept those models alive.

We can take this further. Not a single climate model predicted the current cooling phase. If the science were settled, the model (singular) would have predicted it.

(excerpted from Professor Hayden's letter to Lisa P. Jackson, Administrator Environmental Protection Agency. More at link.)

Still trying to figure out why cnn thinks weather has nothing to do with climate.

Exactly.

The cultists use any hot day or hurricane etc... to “prove” global warming.

They know that global warming is a hoax, so they renamed it to climate change. And the sheeple didn’t even notice.

There’s a reason the Climate Change zealots changed the name of their religion from Global Warming to Climate Change. It was after the computer models they were using to prove GW were debunked and other dishonesty was exposed.

He was right in 2014 and he is right today:

I wish I had a nickel for every time the liberals have used unusual weather to support their claim of climate change. This is the pot calling the kettle black.

And Chris Cillizza doesn’t know the difference between his a$$ and a hole in the ground.

CNN does not know the difference between orchestrated crisis designed to give government control over the use of energy and real science like the satellite global temperature data.

NOAA Temperature Adjustments Correlate Exactly with the Rise in CO2 - Big Surprise

Thermometers show the US cooling since about 1920, but NOAA massively cools the past to create the appearance of a warming trend. These adjustments make a spectacular hockey stick of data tampering. When plotted against atmospheric CO2, the correlation is almost perfect. NOAA is tampering with the data exactly to match their theory.

NOAA Radiosonde Data Shows No Warming For 58 Years March 7, 2016

NOAA Fiddles With Climate Data To Erase The 15-Year Global Warming ‘Hiatus’ 6/4/2015

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration scientists have found a solution to the 15-year “pause” in global warming: They “adjusted” the hiatus in warming out of the temperature record. New climate data by NOAA scientists doubles the warming trend since the late 1990s by adjusting pre-hiatus temperatures downward and inflating temperatures in more recent years.

NOAA = Fake Science!

Dear President Trump,

I live in Minnesota. It’s really cold.

Please help.

Oh, never mind.

I live in Minnesota.

Yes. Of course, one season doesn’t make a “climate”, but we have had ten years or so of mild winters here in Chitown, and all of these have been taken as evidence of “climate change”. Now the cold returns with a vengeance ... so, I guess we’ll see!

... We’ve hit subzero for the first time in a while, and even double digit sub zero! Well, it didn’t set a record, in my recollection, but it’s been cold! Lasted a while, too.

During the 2016 campaign, someone said that Trumps supporters took him seriously but not literally while his enemies took him literally but not seriously. This is a perfect example. The libturd media are frantic, trying to refute what they think President Trump said. One could just as easily take his comment to mean he believes in global warming.

CNN does not know the difference between the Truth and all those Lies.

CNN doesn’t know the difference between a joke and a policy paper.

Nevertheless, they continue to reference “warming” in one way or another. After all, that is the central scientific premise, based on “green house gasses”, i.e. CO2 emissions.

Dear Chris: If Donald Trump knows or doesn’t know the difference between climate and weather, it would not change the theory of climate change from BS into truth.

Now go back to the playground before Ms. Brown calls you back from recess.
