Fox News ^ | August 27 2019 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn

CNN's reporter Jim Acosta had another clash with President Trump, this time for not answering his question about climate change.

Trump made plenty of headlines from the G7 summit in France, but critics went after the president for skipping a meeting focused on climate change with other world leaders

Acosta attempted to ask the president, who referred to himself as an "environmentalist," on whether or not he believes in climate change but failed to get a response.

Acosta attempted to ask the president, who referred to himself as an "environmentalist," on whether or not he believes in climate change but failed to get a response.

Jim Acosta knows the answer. Jim Acosta had primed himself to attack Trump no matter what the answer.

First we all believe in climate change. The climate has been changing since the beginning of time.

The real question is whether mankind has a significant role in climate change, mainly global warming. Many non scientists, paid "scientists", propagandists, and politicians have decided themselves, that you are the cause of global warming. They can save a lot of money and time by simply declaring that the science is settled.

The "science" is far from settled. The Sun is the dominant player in climate change on Earth, and on the other planets in our solar system. The left is pushing another narrative, and, as they always do, they use selective incidents and information to push that narrative down your throat. With the left there is no allowance for intelligent discourse, just opportunities to take potshots at you based on hate, anger, and dishonest science.

He should ask his god, Obama, if climate change is for real.

The Obamas just spent $15 million on a beachfront estate. Who would spend $15 million buying beachfront property if it is going to be under water in 11 1/2 years?

Does Jim know that even the insipid Dims have abandoned the “Climate Change” cause?

It’s just not about which the people care.

Abilio Acosta thinks he is important but he is just a barker for the circus.

Fredomania is the high watermark in the MSM and Acosta comes in under it.

Acosta: "Do you believe in climate change?"

That's got to be the dumbest question I've ever heard from a journalist. It's akin to "Do you believe in UFOs?" Or maybe aliens from another galaxy, or the Abominable Snowman, or the Loch Ness Monster. Climate Change is a complex scientific field with thousands of diverse nuances, theories, explanations, and controversies. Few deny that the climate of earth has changed continuously for the last 4.5 billion years.

The question simply shows the ignorance of Acosta. He really was asking "Do you believe in Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming which must be addressed with immediate government takeover of the economy?" Only an ignorant fool would answer "yes".

Acosta is one such fool. Unfortunately he has many co-fools in the Democrat presidential pool.
