Perhaps we could use a little bit of that good old Global Warming that our Country, but not other countries, was going to pay TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS to protect against. The "logic" at work here is simple: How can climate change, aka global warming, be real if it is so cold outside? What Trump (and Inhofe) don't seem to understand -- or choose to ignore -- is that "weather" and "climate" are not the same thing. If the "weather = climate" logic held, a series of sweltering summer days could reasonably be concluded as incontrovertible evidence that the planet is getting warmer. But to use cold weather as some sort of rebuttal of broader climatological warming is not even close to accurate, factual or funny.
