    You certainly shouldn't expect Trump, not being a scientist, to understand such nuance. As you can see on his tweets.

    When he talks about Climate Change in video linked above he isn't denying it though, so, clearly to him those concepts are somewhat different.

    Again. Literally the same concept just a different name. You can't believe in one and not the other. So your point is moot.
    They are not exactly same concept though.

    In the modern context the terms global warming and climate change are commonly used interchangeably, but climate change includes both global warming and its effects, such as changes to precipitation and impacts that differ by region.

    Shift happened exactly because "global warming" was taken a bit too literally as it gotten higher prominence.

    Same thing. "Global warming" was updated to "climate change" to more accurately reflect the phenomenon and to counter climate change deniers who were confused as to why it still snows during the winter despite "global warming". You know, like Republican legislators.

    Exactly my point.

    They are not the same though. "Climate Change" includes "Global Warming" and several others; "Global Warming" is just the temperature part.

    Well he denied both in those series of tweets, so arguing they are different is irrelevant.

    I literally just said they were the same. It's a different name for the same thing because some people don't understand the difference between "climate" and "weather".

    You realize that's just taking a shot at the perceived concept that people's taxes would be lower, right?

    Even if it were true, the majority doesn't mean all. Where do you think that extra money came from?

    Same thing. The name was changed because morons(IE Republicans) kept being all, "But snow is cold, not warm!"

    Honestly, I'm not quite sure what the alternating lower case/upper case letters thing is supposed to mean so maybe I did misinterpret what he was trying to say?

    From the same article: "According to analysis from the Tax Policy Center....roughly 6% paid more."

    A lot of the extra money came from there being 1.5% more returns filed than the previous year, not because of increased taxes.

    No, again, one is more broad then the other. They are part of same "movement", but slightly different concepts.
    Not sure why you cannot understand this nuance.

    Noone would name it "global weather change" because weather is always changing.

    Not really.

    The name was changed because "climate change" is a more inclusive term to label the effects of human industry on Earth's environment. Global warming is a part of and a driver of climate change, but it's not the whole thing.

    So in your attempt to say Trump thinks climate change is real you quote the part where he thinks it will just fix itself, therefore denying the danger of it. Congrats on crapping on your own argument.

    So because he doesn't say Chinese hoax that suddenly makes the tweet disappear?

    I said banana's are good potassium, that means that one time I said murderers are great people suddenly doesn't exist! It's how it works!

    Yeah this is news breaking. Trump kids are scum.

    Among the internal conflicts that have emerged in the White House around his children and official events was tickets to the State of the Union, when a half-dozen guests were moved out of the first lady's box last-minute to accommodate the president's kids


    The mother of a young girl who had struggled with cancer was unable to sit with her daughter, watching from a room down the hall with staff and others

    Just more reason to hate this family and how they are like his father in every way.

    This story is a sorta oh btw, they basically took over and barged themselves into the Royal visit and state dinner they had in which at least the two moron sons had no part being in. Of course Ivanka barely has an excuse herself. Oh, I believe Tiffanee was there (I have no idea)?

    No one ever said that the Trump kids were kind individuals, but this is definitely prime evidence of just how much "we're rich and you're not" attitude they fucking have. A shame that Mueller never got Jr.

    Good article on how dangerously stupid, unqualified, and incompetent Kushner is, which was highlighted by his Axios interview.

    I still can't believe a kid whose qualifications largely extend to, "Banging the boss's daughter and running his families real estate empire that's up to their eyeballs in debt." is being tasked with everything from brokering peace between Israel and Palestine to reforming the VA. Usually tasks with dedicated specialists focused singularly on that rather than splitting their time between a half dozen+ major initiatives, all of which they know little to nothing about.

    Yeah what else is new. I couldn't watch the full interview and had to take it in bits and pieces cause I cant stand that asshole. Yeah, I'm mad that our wannabe banana dictator had his kids doing shit that they are unqualified for.

    I don't care if that worm was born first, he's defiling my name. Only reason he is where he is because of who his father in law is.

    “Their families have to understand what traitors they are to their conference, to their party, and to their country,” he bellowed. “And this president! I think it couldn’t be clearer.”
    We must listen to dear leader. Dear leader will guide us and protect us. We put our trust in dear leader and he will deliver us great wealth and success. Dear leader loves us, and we love him. All those who oppose dear leader must be removed, we cannot allow disharmony to exist within our great utopia.

    Good lord, how the fuck does Lou Dobbs still have a fucking job. This man is a dangerous, unhinged lunatic with a fucking national TV show. Which I guess is par for the course for Fox, what with Glenn Beck and Hannity and Carlson and Pierro and...I won't continue going on.
