After all, this arrogant fool didn’t even believe his intelligence agents.
No doubt you recall how President Trump dismissed their findings that Russia launched cyberattacks to influence the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. In fact, during a joint press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin, he shocked the world by insisting that he found Putin’s denial more credible.
Well, now comes this regarding the unfolding dangers of climate change:
President Donald Trump dismissed U.S. government scientists’ predictions that climate change will impose devastating economic costs.
‘I don’t believe it,’ Trump told reporters Monday on the White House lawn, when asked about the grim forecast in the government’s National Climate Assessment. ‘Right now, we’re the cleanest we’ve ever been.’

Even worse, Trump attempted to justify dismissing their predictions with this imbecilic tweet:
Brutal and Extended Cold Blast could shatter ALL RECORDS – Whatever happened to Global Warming?

How stupid is Trump? His brain is like a wooden stump. Which explains this self-proclaimed genius famously claiming that
I have a gut and my gut tells me more sometimes than anybody else’s brain can ever tell me.
