Democrat plans to focus on threat of climate change

Jay Inslee, the governor of Washington state, is running for president with a single-issue focus on climate change. The governor’s intention to compete for the Democratic nomination was announced in an article published Wednesday in The Atlantic. Inslee has served as governor of the state since 2012. One of focuses has been environmental concerns in the state, including reducing the use of fossil fuels while pushing alternative energy development and boosting green jobs, according to his bio. As governor, he also has pushed for investments in education, creating jobs, supporting workers and boosting the state’s transparency, his official bio said.

He is co-chair and co-founder of the U.S. Climate Alliance, a bipartisan group of 17 governors who seek to implement the policy goals of the Paris Agreement.

I live in liberal Washington State. Thankfully I’m somewhat protected from the madness because I live in a rural area. Trust me, Inslee is as dumb as a brick. It will be fun watching him sputter and spit as he gets destroyed by his competitors.

Inslee is a two bit loser.

The Washington State politician we all have to worry about is Inslee’s all but certain successor as governor, the current Attorney General Bobby Ferguson. He reminds me of Clinton, as he is willing to blow with the political winds, and do and say whatever it takes to get elected. Ferguson has spent his whole life focused on his great ambition to be elected President. I predict he is a major factor in Presidential politics in 2024 and beyond.

A presidential contender should have an IQ greater than his shoe size. Unfortunately, this would disqualify Dimslee

I believe Ned LaMont (the new governor of Connecticut) is not running...he needs to raise taxes and put tolls in before he runs...

The white men planning to run as dimocrats are too dumb to realize the dim party is anti-white man and only wants minorities.

So how much of a carbon footprint will he make by flying all over the country campaigning? Or is he planning on just hoofing it?

Inslee was a loser when he was in the State legislature and hasn’t changed since - not for the better anyway.
