‘Whatever happened to global warming’: Trump called ‘imbecile’ as he mocks environment activists ahead of massive winter storm

'Whatever happened to global warming': Trump called 'imbecile' as he mocks environment activists ahead of massive winter storm

President Donald Trump was called ‘imbecile’ and ‘lunatic’ after he made a social media post about the impending winter storm, asking what happened to ‘global warming’. “Record Cold Wave expected to hit 40 States. Rarely seen anything like it before. Could the Environmental Insurrectionists please explain — WHATEVER HAPPENED TO GLOBAL WARMING???” Trump posted. At least 14 states have declared states of emergency as massive winter storms are expected to impact more than 170 million people across the US. The National Weather Service said it could bring “catastrophic ice accumulation” and could result in long-duration power outages, extensive tree damage, and extremely dangerous or impassable travel conditions,” including in many states less accustomed to intense winter weather. More than 1,800 weekend flights have already been cancelled, according to the tracker Flightaware, including many in Texas.

5-6 minutes outside could be dangerous

In New York state, Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul warned of extreme cold that could make even short trips outdoors dangerous. “Five or six minutes outside could literally be dangerous for your health,” she said, adding that emergency crews were fully mobilized.NYC mayor Zohran Mamdani said he was not planning to close schools Monday.

Back from Davos, already trolling

While critics questioned the understanding of President Trump about weather and climate, MAGA cheered for how the president is back at trolling the Left as soon as he returned from Davos. “Difficult to describe how dumb our president is. He may be the dumbest man to ever occupy any elected office anywhere in the world,” journalist Mehdi Hasan wrote. “Back from Davos – already trolling the Left this morning. – lol,” Catturd cheered.
