Bummer: Tonight’s Debate Won’t Include Any Climate Crisis (scam) Questions

If the Washington Post is so darned concerned why haven’t they given up their own use of fossil fuels to gather and disseminate the new, and made their operations carbon neutral?

The Energy 202: Climate change left off debate list even though polls show it’s a growing concern among voters

Polls show many voters say they care about climate change. But they probably won’t be hearing much about it during the first presidential debate, moderated by a Fox News host.

Chris Wallace, who will be questioning President Trump and former vice president Joe Biden, has declined to make the rise in global temperatures a topic of discussion Tuesday evening, despite surveys showing it is a growing concern for those going to the polls on Nov. 3 — at least among Democratic voters.

Instead the Fox News host has indicated he will ask the candidates about the Supreme Court, the coronavirus pandemic, the economy, election integrity, and “race and violence in our cities.”

The decision has agitated left-leaning activists who worry about a repeat of the 2016 election, when no moderator asked either Trump or then-Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton about climate change over three nights of debate.

At the end of the day, people care about ‘climate change’ in theory, but, when stacked up against actual real issues, it drops to the bottom of the pack in Realityland.

“Young people across the board are resoundingly freaked out about the climate crisis,” said Evan Weber, a co-founder of the youth-led Sunrise Movement. “The only question that matters to young people for the president of the United States is: What is your plan to deal with this crisis?”

Those same young people also tend to fail to show up to vote, but, if they really care

    “Young people across the board are resoundingly freaked out about the climate crisis,” because the media and the left (BIRM) keeps stoking that particular fire!

    How much heat is needed to cook a nothingburger, anyway?

    Actually, I suspect the Post, and all of the other newspapers will very soon give up their own use of fossil fuels to disseminate the news. This is probably the last generation of physical newspapers; it can’t be too much longer before the print newspapers become digital only.

    Great news for Covians from the debate! President refused to condemn white supremacy! And he refused to abide by the results of the vote (even implying that his citizen patriot “troops” should be on “stand-by”).

    Your new slogan… Trump2020: “Stand Back! Stand By!”

      Nobody is going to remember that.

      They watched Slow, Sleepy Joe lose the election with lines like, “If I were running, I would know what the plan is” or (when asked, “Have you called the Portland Mayor or Oregon Governor to stop the violence?”), “I don’t hold public office now”.

      It’s over. Go back to Mommy’s basement and start crying now.

        The Proud Boys and other white supremacists heard him loud and clear. But you know that. President Trump did not gain any new voters tonight and VP Biden didn’t lose any of his.

        President Trump embarrassed our nation tonight.

        “Proud Boys, Stand Back and Stand By!”

    President Trump was asked about global warming and he punted, blaming wildfires on Californians not raking millions of US forest acreage.

    And Trump was correct, J. Or did “climate change” somehow stop at the Canadian border? But never fear, the same clowns who say climate change can cause hot, cold, wet and dry will no doubt proclaim it can cause wildfires and no wildfires..https://wattsupwiththat.com/2020/09/29/data-show-canadian-wildfires-at-lowest-level-in-decades/

    Jeff (man/ child),
    I had a guy over at the house today doing some work. He got to talking and proudly showed me his tattoo on his chest. It was the stars and bars. He said that many in his family have been strong advocates for the South and that his community is becoming much more conservative and beginning to understand the true history of our region and how the U.S. lies about slavery, the war, and rights.

    He was black. Seems things are changing.
