Donald Trump knows how to terrify people. First, the conservatives watched, with anxiety, as the concerned Al Gore waddled up to Trump Tower to talk Climate with Ivanka. Then, Democrats reeled in horror as The Donald nominated regulation fighting Scott Pruitt to the EPA. While the Right breathed the clean air of relief, the Left choked on the choice. (Please forgive me. Even on day two, the rage rollercoaster is getting old.)

A word on the phrase “climate denier.” No one denies “the climate.” As Jon Gabriel so aptly puts it,”Enough with the “denier” smear. The fact is, everyone believes in climate change. But only progressives think it started 100 years ago.”
This high dudgeon is especially fun:
At the risk of being dramatic. Scott Pruitt at EPA is an existential threat to the planet
