The editorial board of the Washington Post has declared that President Trump is “complicit” for Hurricane Florence because of his views on climate change.
The massive storm has not made landfall yet, but the Post published a column on Wednesday headlined, “Another hurricane is about to batter our coast. Trump is complicit.” The piece also notes that Trump has given “good advice” when issuing hurricane warnings via his Twitter feed before it launched an attack on the president. “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,” the editorial board wrote.
Billionaire Jeff Bezos’ paper then quotes a climate researcher who said that previous hurricanes would not have produced so much rain without “human-induced climate change” and Florence is another indication of global warming. “With depressingly ironic timing, the Trump administration announced Tuesday a plan to roll back federal rules on methane, a potent greenhouse gas that is the main component in natural gas. Drillers and transporters of the fuel were supposed to be more careful about letting it waft into the atmosphere, which is nothing more than rank resource waste that also harms the environment,” the Post’s editorial board wrote. “The Trump administration has now attacked all three pillars of President Barack Obama’s climate-change plan.” The piece concluded: “The president has cemented the GOP’s legacy as one of reaction and reality denial.

The storm has now weakened. Thank you Trump!
What about Super Storm Sandy?
These people are certifiable.
Except for one minor detail... Hurricane activity has been less than the historical average during recent years.
Amazing. Trump now has the power to start hurricanes. What a guy!
Steer clear of kryptonite, Donald....
Trump is responsible for the storm. IMPEACH HIM!
Hurricane Florence weakens to Cat 2 storm but storm surge expected to hit ‘catastrophic levels’ http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/09/13/hurricane-florence-weakens-to-cat-2-storm-but-storm-surge-expected-to-hit-catastrophic-levels.html
We knew he’d be blamed but this “before landfall” hit is TDS on steroids.
And I read an article on Weather Underground that said id climate change/warming actually happens, hurricanes will be fighting more shear winds and hitting weaker than they have been - just in time for latest predictions that Florence is expected to be a Cat 2 when it hits.....won’t downplay what a slow moving, rain generating, significant wind event can do though...some folks will be devastated.
Hurricane Florence: Washington Post declares Trump is ‘complicit’ for dangerous storm
Wonder if these Post folks have brain damage or were born just plain stupid?
‘This is exactly that horrifyingly stupid. Millenials believe it!’
many people for many millenia have believed the stupidest stuff without the slightest qualm about its inanity...there were/are people who believe the earth is flat, no more than 6,000 years old and that dinosaur fossils were placed by Satan in an attempt to sway right believing folk...
It is rumored that the bresident out on the east balcony and raised his hands above his head and waved them. Soon after that the high pressure intensified and the hurricane was rebuffed and diminished.
The Trump complicity saved North Carolina
And with these propaganda-spewing assholes literally blaming Trump for hurricanes, the powers-that-be want to simultaneously shut down any alternative news channels on the internet.
We are heading for either very dark times, or a revolution.
Both.
Sunspots are cold holes in the thermonuclear furnace that I blame on the Democratic party existing. Just as stupid.
Florence. The short form of that is Flo. Flo is the spokesperson for Progressive Insurance. Therefore, progressives are complicit in the hurricane.
