Trump: ‘We Have to Defeat the Climate Hoaxers Once and for All’
President Donald Trump has revealed that a key goal of his second term is to “decisively defeat” those responsible for pushing the “climate crisis” narratives.
“We have to defeat the climate hoaxsters once and for all,” Trump declared during a campaign speech.
“One of the most urgent tasks… is to decisively defeat the climate hysteria hoax.
“The radical Left’s fearmongering about climate and our future is… destroying America’s economy, weakening our society, and eviscerating our middle class.
“It’s really hurting us.”
“And the conservative movement is making tremendous strides and everyone knows it.
“And every mistake they make is one thing good, they realize that we got it right.
“One of the most urgent tasks, not only for our movement, but for our country is to decisively defeat the climate hysteria hoax.
“The ocean is rising. It’s rising. It’s coming.
“It’s within 300 year years, we’re going to gain one, 100th of an inch in the ocean and have a little more beachfront property.
“It’s going to be a terrible thing. No, it’s a hoax.
“The whole thing is a total… It’s so crazy.”
Donald Trump: (52:06)
“And just in a simple way, China has a very dirty country.
“India is very dirty, air is very dirty, water is very dirty.
“In Japan even, and many others, they dump in the ocean.
“Russia has a very dirty country.
“You look at arctic ice, it’s black.
“They call it black ice. Do you know how it got black? Factories.
“So we’re going to have nice and clean.
“The problem is the air goes up and then it starts to move.
“It moves. The air goes up in China and it moves.
“It takes about a week and a half and it moves across the Pacific and it hits Los Angeles.
“May it be Los Angeles. But it hits our country.
“And they dump their garbage in the ocean and the ocean tides flow and they hit guess what?
“Our west coast. And did you ever see the tons and tons and tons of garbage that we pull out?”
Donald Trump: (52:55)
“It comes from Asia. It comes from India, comes from all over, a lot comes from China, tremendous from China.
“They dump in the ocean. It floats over to the United States.
“And then we clean our air and we clean everything.
“How stupid are we? How stupid are we?
“It goes up and then we say, ‘There’s something wrong with our air. What’s wrong?’
“In the meantime, our factories can’t perform.
“They want us to use wind, wind, intermittent wind.
“I always say when I was running and we ran a great race, we did much better the second time that we did the first time, much, much better by many millions of votes, but we’re running and I tell the little, it’s sad, it’s a joke, but it’s not a joke.
“‘Darling, I’d like to watch the president tonight on television.’ ‘No, you can’t. The wind isn’t blowing. The wind isn’t blowing. There’s no television tonight, darling, the wind isn’t blowing.’”
Donald Trump: (53:45)
“And by the way, our house went down to about 30% of the value because we’re near a windmill that makes a lot of noise, kills all our birds, and ruins a landscape.
“Other than that, it’s a wonderful thing for the environment.
“These people are crazy. But they’re radical climate people and I don’t believe they mean it.
“They can’t mean it because it’s too easy. They can’t mean it.
“The radical Left’s fearmongering about climate and our future is no longer just scaring American youth, it’s destroying America’s economy, weakening our society, and eviscerating our middle class.
“It’s really hurting us. And we don’t have the power with green energy.
“I’m all for it, but we don’t have the power to fire up our plants.
“And I took you out of the Paris hoax Accord and it was costing us trillions, trillions, and trillions of dollars.”
Donald Trump: (54:36)
“It sounded nice. The Paris Climate Accord, that was the good part.
“The rest of it was a disaster.
“And by the way, China doesn’t kick in for another 14 years.
“Russia kicked in at the dirtiest point.
“Russia, they’re having a hard time, but they kicked in at the dirtiest point.
“India hardly kicks in at all.
“But us, we kick in immediately and we have to pay a lot of money to other countries because they’re developing.
“Like China is a developing country.
“India is a developing country. This is the craziest deal.
“Anyway, I ended it and now I understand they’re going right back into it, except it’s going to be even worse than the one I ended.
“The deranged ideology of the Green New Deal is a massive self-inflicted economic wound.
“It was developed by a young woman who doesn’t know a thing about the environment.
“She knows a lot about con jobs, but she doesn’t know about the…
“I wonder if she goes home, AOC plus three.
“You know AOC plus three? It’s AOC plus her three people.
“And they’re getting worse and worse and they’re hurting our country very badly.
“I wonder if they go home and laugh when they’re in a room together.
“What do you think, Sean?
“Do you think they go home and say, ‘What a bunch of stupid fools.’
“They’re believing some… I don’t think she ever took a class on the climate.
“I think she knows nothing about it.
“She wasn’t a good student anyway at the classes she did take.
“It’s helping fuel runaway inflation. It’s causing the cost of food, cars, housing, and raising a family to absolutely skyrocket.
“And perhaps worst of all, it’s putting our country at the mercy of Iran, Russia, Venezuela.”
Donald Trump: (56:17)
“That’s our new source of oil.
“We’re going to get it from Venezuela.
“We’re not going to take it right from there.
“We’re standing on liquid gold.
“We’re going to get it from Venezuela.
“It’s not even believable.
“All the while we’re sitting on this really incredible wealth.
“We have our own wealth.
“We have more than anybody in the world, especially with [inaudible 00:56:37].
“We have much more under our feet than any other country in the world and we’re going to make deals with OPEC.
“We’re back to OPEC again.
“You never heard the word OPEC in four years, right, Steve?”
