Former President Donald Trump’s reelection threatens to worsen global climate change by altering the trajectory of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, eroding federal climate research and forecasting, and abdicating America’s leadership role in global climate negotiations.
Why it matters: His return to the White House comes at a time when climate scientists have warned that the Paris Agreement’s warming targets are slipping dangerously out of reach, raising the odds of potentially catastrophic consequences.
That’s why. The sections of the billionaire-owned media that don’t deny anthropogenic climate change or pretend that it’s a good thing all have a vested interest in pretending that Dem leadership can do no wrong.
That’s like people really want to still brag about “Biden’s signature climate legislation” despite fossil fuel companies publicly asking for trump to keep it, because it’s making them so much money.
Rather than just doing what Dem voters want and getting the votes, Dem politicians keep doing what Dem voters hate for the donation money, then try to use it to convince all the people they pissed off to still vote for them.
If the goal is electing Dems the DNC is completely incapable.
If their goal is making sure billionaires keep accumulating wealth tho, they’re doing a great job ensuring regardless of who wins an election the wealthy always make more money.
