Democrats Want Climate Crisis (scam) To Be Centerpiece Of Presidential Debates Or Something

By all means, let’s put an issue that tends to rank very low on polls of what people really care about on the forefront of the debates, an issue that is popular in theory but not practice

House Democrats Demand Climate Be ‘Centerpiece’ Of 2020 Presidential Debates

Dozens of House Democrats are calling for the climate crisis to be a central focus of the upcoming presidential and vice presidential debates.

In a letter Wednesday to the Commission on Presidential Debates, 70 lawmakers stressed that their constituents must hear from the candidates about how they plan to tackle “one of the most pressing and all-consuming issues currently facing our country.” (snip)

Even a single question on climate change at the upcoming debates would be an improvement over 2016, when presidential debate moderators did not once bring up the rapidly worsening global crisis.

“This cannot happen again,” reads the letter, spearheaded by Rep. Mike Levin of California. “Given the dire nature of the crisis, we ask that you break precedent and publicly call on the moderators to include climate in the topics that will be addressed during the debates.”

I actually agree with this: I think moderator Chris Wallace should ask multiple questions, such as “If you believe that climate change is mostly caused by Mankind,”

• what measures have you taken in your own life to reduce your carbon footprint?”
• what will your climate policies do to the cost of living for Americans?”
• will you give up your own use of fossil fuels?”
• will you turn the power off at the White House in empathy when areas like California are experiencing blackouts because solar and wind can’t provide enough power?”
• do you think that the current iteration of carbon taxes, which includes refunding 4/5ths of American’s cost of living increase, makes people dependent on government?”
• what do you think of the polling that people do not want to even pay $10 more a month for energy?”
• why is your climate plan, as pushed further left by your extreme base, more about government controlling everything than about dealing with a minor issue?”

Obviously, Wallace won’t ask those questions, but, it would be fun letting Biden and Trump debate the issue, first, because Biden would be a stumbling mess (who thinks Excuses will be made to get Biden out of debating?), second, because this is Trump, and he will ask inconvenient questions like “why did you do virtually nothing during your 40 years in government?” Will you pledge to stop using fossil fuels in your own life?” “Why do Democratic Party plans smack of hardcore Modern Socialism?” “Do you support the Green New Deal, which has less to do with ‘climate change’ and most to do with Democratic Socialism and Big Centralized Government, since you have a hardcore Socialist by the name of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez serving on your climate change advisory board?”

And just imagine all the facial expressions from Trump. He would wipe the floor with Biden, and it would be great to have it highlighted in a massively watched forum that ‘climate change’ policy has little to do with actual science and mostly is about Progressive (nice fascism) control of citizens.
