Kamala Harris Tours Wildfire-Ravaged California Town Accusing Trump of "Climate Denial"
Daily Mail UK ^ | 09/15/2020 | Joe Davies

Kamala Harris accused Trump of climate denial reigniting the growing feud between the President and Governor of California. On Monday, Trump rejected the scientific consensus that climate change is exacerbating California's wildfires, saying the climate would 'start getting cooler, you just watch it'.

After visiting the site of fires in Sacramento, the President instead blamed Newsom's forest management for causing the devastation. He said: 'There has to be good strong forest management. So hopefully they'll start doing that.'

Yesterday, Harris said America's leadership must 'take seriously these new changes in our climate. Ideology should not kick in when responding to wildfires and the climate crisis.' At a grassroots fundraiser on Monday, Harris said: 'We have a president in Donald Trump who has pretty much denied the science and even today, could not with the full voice, speak to the fact that we have to address this and we have to address it around projection of what's predictable, in terms of not only drought, but electrical fires based on lightning, which is part of what we saw in California.

'The fact is that we are in the midst of an incredible crisis, because our climate is changing in drastic form, which is leading to California burning in many places, which is leading to storms hitting our Gulf Coast repeatedly year after year and getting worse,' reported ABC. Speaking in front of a burned playground Harris told reporters: 'The people who are victimized by these, they could care less and their children could care less who they voted for in the last election. This is not a partisan issue. It is incumbent on us, in terms of the leadership of our nation, to take seriously these new changes in our climate, and to do what we can to mitigate against the damage.'

That’s because they aren’t black felons resisting arrest, or accosting an officer that wound up dead.

Meanwhile Harris and her Dem comrades ignore the violence, mayhem, and chaos in the streets of America. They push the “climate crisis” as the biggest threat to humanity.

Harris said America's leadership must 'take seriously these new changes in our climate.

It really ticks me off that the media lets Democrats get away with such ridiculous statements as if there were no forest fires before 2016.

If there was an elephant in the room, Harris and the Dems would be on their knees hunting for “white supremacist” or “climate change” ants in the crevices in the tiles.

If there is no climate change, these fires occurred due to poor forest management and in some cases arson to go along with it.

If there is climate change, these fires *still* occurred due to poor forest management and in some cases arson to go along with it.

But go on lying, Dems. It’s all you can do.
