Psych’s back!
And if we may make an attempt at constructive dialogue, could you please share some of your sources that you have read and listened to that suggest climate change is a hoax?
David Icke has written extensively on the topic. Short form interview here:
Ann McElhinney and Phelim McAleer have also done some interesting work on the subject. Their documentary “Not Evil, Just Wrong” is a good starting point.
Still waiting for that list, by the way.

Most of the stuff I have read and listened to points to “climate change” née “global warming” as a hoax funded and perpetrated by the eugenics movement and their one world government associates. As long as people are the problem, it is easy to justify aborting them, toppling economies by flooding countries with illegals, and working them to death in factories.

then reading and listening to the wrong sources
not all that surprising, unfortunately
Great. Explain why they are the wrong sources and why they are incorrect.
And saying “it’s science” wont suffice. Example: science said that cholesterol caused heart disease in the 1980’s and that replacing fat with Crisco and sugar would be good for our health. Twenty plus years and an obesity epidemic later, science admitted that the sugar industry paid them off to get the “right” results for people who made their living selling Crisco and sugar. The moral: science is only as right as scientists are motivated to be.

David Icke?
I’ve never heard of the guy, but just googled his name and learned he operates under the title of “professional conspiracy theorist.”
He gathers information. Explain to me why his information is incorrect.
Still waiting on that exhaustive list of horrible things done by the Trump administration, by the way. So far, all we have is “The environment, because science”.

The deficit in a strong economy with no mechanisms left to fight off a recession, and not paying off the debt when this is the exact time we should be doing so.
And just the embarassment he causes by having the leader of our country having the temperament and vocabulary of a first-grader.

The deficit worries me, too, but isn’t that more of a Congress issue?
Also agree with you re: his Twitter habit.

He's not entirely wrong about that (assuming he means senate too)

I assume that budgets still originate in Congress and go to the POTUS for his signature, even under the evil Trump.

exercise: google “long term implications of trump policies”
then, google “long term implications of trump environmental policies”
I could do that, but then I’d have to track down the source of funding for the studies that those stories claim to cite. In my experience, if you pull that thread long enough, it’s either another version of the 1980’s sugar producers’ scam, a misrepresentation of the study’s actual findings, or a wild extrapolation of what the study actually found in order to get clicks. That’s why I was asking you - the resident expert.

Lying so much that I seriously question his assessment of attacks on oil tankers in the Persian Gulf. Why would I start to trust him on this? He takes Putin's word on no interference against every intelligence agency we have. Bromance with Kim. But we're supposed to believe him that Iran is behind the attacks on oil tankers when eye witnesses dispute his assessment? Why should we believe anything that comes out of his lying mouth?
