The editorial board of the Washington Post has declared that President Trump is “complicit” for Hurricane Florence because of his views on climate change.
The massive storm has not made landfall yet, but the Post published a column on Wednesday headlined, “Another hurricane is about to batter our coast. Trump is complicit.”
The piece also notes that Trump has given “good advice” when issuing hurricane warnings via his Twitter feed before it launched an attack on the president.
“When it comes to extreme weather, Mr. Trump is complicit. He plays down humans’ role in increasing the risks, and he continues to dismantle efforts to address those risks. It is hard to attribute any single weather event to climate change. But there is no reasonable doubt that humans are priming the Earth’s systems to produce disasters,” the editorial board wrote.
Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos’ paper then quotes a climate researcher who said that previous hurricanes would not have produced so much rain without “human-induced climate change” and Florence is another indication of global warming.

Yeah, we never had hurricanes when I was a kid in Illinois. They just invented them to get Al Gore elected.
Of course President Trump is complicit and there was a major earthquake in California and the whole state fell in the ocean and that was Trump's fault also.
If human-induced climate change is real then the main problem is because there are too many humans. May I suggest to Jeff Bezos and the staff of the WAPO that they do their part and do the honorable thing by committing hari kari immediately to help alleviate excess CO2.
The REAL problem is that there are too many elected liberal Democrats and they need to be purged.
The editorial board at WP are imbeciles.
