I’m rooting for Trump to be removed from office because he’s a criminal sociopath who’s clearly ruining this nation. In addition, I want to see him held accountable for his crimes.
I’m most certainly not rooting against my country.
Anyone with an IQ of a turnip can understand this.
Perhaps the take-away here is: Don’t expect anything coming out of the Trump administration to make sense.
There’s no way to know for certain, but I believe most Republican politicians understand and accept the theory of AGW, Anthropogenic Global Warming, but so many of their constituents are ignorant, and so they figure that they must play along.
I would bet that applies to Trump as well, but again, there’s no way to know for sure.
One thing’s certain: he has a viciously corrupt relationship with Big Oil, and couldn’t care less about this planet’s future as long as his actions here and now make him richer and more powerful.
CO2 is not a poison, but it is a greenhouse gas.
It would be interesting to know which oil company is behind the “CO2 Coalition.”
The people making the claim at left say: This isn’t greenwashing. It’s patented, for-profit, and scalable tire recycling tech.
There is nothing scientifically impossible about what they’re saying here. In fact, I promoted the gasification/pyrolysis of waste tires to potential investors all over the planet for about 10 years, until I finally gave up.
Candidly, I’m not sure why this entire enterprise has gone precisely nowhere, but I have three main ideas:
1) There’s a huge cost associated with collecting old tires that, in and of itself, probably makes the cost of the biofuel and other derived byproducts prohibitively high.
2) Our society provides essentially zero incentive for businesses that take waste out of landfills and reform it into fuels that compete with Big Oil. The fossil fuel industry has made completely sure of that.
3) The creation of biofuels from rubber and other organic compounds is not an exact science. Claims that people have developed “omnivorous” biomass eaters are largely bunk.
What establishes Mike Lindell’s credibility in most of our minds is the claim he made in 2021 that he had “absolute, irrefutable proof” that the 2020 election was rigged. But unfortunately, he couldn’t release it! Bummer.
The 63 state and federal courts who reviewed this case found zero evidence of election fraud, but darn it, they would have benefitted handsomely from his findings. Hmmm. All this made sense to the common American moron.
Unfortunately, it didn’t play out so well in civil litigation. He’s fighting desperately to appeal the courts’ findings and fend off the $1.3 billion defamation suit brought by Dominion Voting Systems, paralleling the case in which Fox News has already forked over $787 million when they lost their defamation case brought against the “news” agency by Dominion.
If Lindell raises a ton of money, his message to the highly educated voters of Minnesota might get him 8% or so of the turnout.
As we all know, there are greedy and selfish people in this world of ours, and these are certainly not virtuous traits.
Yet, trying to be fair, people have the right to live by their own wits. If you’re Ebeneezer Scrooge, you’re eventually going to come to some epiphany and turn yourself around morally or pay a considerable price in terms of your mental/physical health.
But what we all must object to is corruption–the use of money to buy preferable treatment, e.g., favorable lawmaking from congress.
And now, for the first time in U.S. history, we have the grand master of all sorts of corruption, the purchase of presidential pardons.
Nobody could have possibly seen this coming.
Far more likely than Trump’s being remembered as a great president are the following scenarios:
He’s impeached, convicted, and dies in prison for his attempt to overthrow the United States government following his loss in the 2020 election.
He’s accredited with starting the Second U.S. Civil War.
The planet’s environment collapses, and he, as the leader of Earth’s super-power, is remembered for his corrupt relationship with the fossil fuel industry.
A massive epidemic wipes out a significant portion of the Earth’s population, and he’s remembered for his brazen rejection of science.
He remains known for his attempt to fashion the U.S. into an authoritarian state.
He causes the world order (NATO vs. totalitarian states) to disintegrate, and fascism becomes the planetary norm.
Here’s are a few comments on social media about the meme at left:
Yes, insane.
Imagine the stupidity of the people who actually fell for it.
CO₂ is not a bad thing. CO₂ is the gas of life. Without it, plants wouldn’t grow. We would all be dead. We should argue for more CO₂, not less.
Yes the brain washing has been going on for the past 30 years.
Here are people who believe that:
The world’s approximately 10,000 climate scientists have conspired to fool the other 8+ billion people on the planet, and that
People who have no scientific training are cock-sure that they have a better understanding of the subject than those who have spent their entire careers focusing on it.
If you’re wondering how we wound up with Trump, look no further.
Based on the polls, we can see that most of the American people have a seething hatred of Trump, but at least God thinks he’s done a good job.
