Rick Scott: Hurricane Storm Surges Getting Worse, ‘Climate Is Clearly Changing’
Breitbart ^ | 09/27/2024 | Pam Key

Posted on 09/27/2024 4:55:40 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) said Friday on CNN’s “Inside Politics” that the changing climate is causing hurricanes to become more severe when discussing the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.

Host Dana Bash said, “This storm was 420 miles wide at one point, which appears to be part of a trend where storms are simply bigger than they once were, perhaps because of the changing climate. What are your thoughts on that?”

Scott said, “Who knows but you’re right. Irma was bigger than our state. This was gigantic. And do you know, the other thing that it seems like what’s happening, is the storm surge is getting worse. We had over ten foot of storm surge.”

First $100 million reward for the arrest of Maduro, and now climate change. The dim bulb idiot goes off the rails right before every national election. Last time we won Roe versus Wade in June of 22, and right about this time of the year in 2022 he decides we need a national abortion ban and inflamed three baby killers.

Could somebody please shut him up until election Day?

Rick might want to spend a few minutes and read up on the storms that wiped out Indianola TX in the late 1800’s. One put a storm surge something like 15 miles inland and scoured the city off of the map.

Indianola and Galveston were vying for who was to be the big port city. Today about all that remains of Indianola is a historical landmark.

Or Rick can just keep running his mouth and sounding like an idiot.

Not a Lincoln quote.

Ultimately a derivative of Proverbs 17:28.

You know all he has to say is “Sure the climate is changing, but I don’t know if that’s the cause or if there’s been bigger hurricanes before we started recording hurricanes.”

It’s been a very disappointing hurricane season for the climate hysterics, they are trying to get the most out of this storm.

Not to forget that Florida used to alot bigger during the Ice Age, then it got WARMER and what we know as Florida got a lot smaller.

Just look at a under water map of the continents.

The process is just continuing.

I’ve seen a number of posts on Instagram where the sea
surge is blamed on global warming, and not just another
hurricane.

It’s disconcerting to see so many ignorant people out there.

They go to a super market. They see bread with weeks old
mold on it, and they buy it because... “Well, it isn’t
Trump.”

Climate has always changed, but that’s not what this is.

Florida has had 119 hurricanes since 1850 but the last one was due to climate change. Yeah, right.
