I counted 12 separate lies in 3 minutes, so one lie every 15 seconds. Seems to be a lower rate of lying than usual. I guess as his rotting brain deteriorates further, a lot more time is being wasted on rambling word salad.

The cat pictures in place of nasty GOPers are now starting to trigger me. When I see a cat I expect a shitshow. Can we switch to hamsters for a while?

Ta, Dok. We're supposed to believe, based on a shameless liar's word, that he's won numerous environmental awards? This from the creep whose Trump Tower tenant died in a fire because he didn't like the aesthetics of sprinklers (and probably thought his hair would get wet if someone lit the stove, because he doesn't know how anything works). Please.

Didn't you hear the bit about the sand, and the water, and the sand? What more do you need?

Well I read the full ramble, and, numero uno, anything he built to environmental standards was NO DOUBT done grudgingly, with maximum bitching, moaning, and obstructing.

Numero two-o, why do these idiots (and this idiot in particular) go from complaining about China doing such huge environmental abuses AND ALSO dominating in green energy? It's like the bumbling incompetent evil genius thing.

Oh, and all the obvious shit also too.

The very people that are his base of support are the ones that are having their homes swept away. At some point FEMA will refuse to rebuild for a third or fourth time.

Oh no...their own insurance companies will stop them long before FEMA!

"Focused ramble" is exactly how I, an OLD, do my best to tell my stories to the YOUNG.

"The Green New Deal was never turned into legislation; the “$93 trillion” figure is a bogus number made up based on a rightwing think tank study, and the high price relied on the assumption that it would also include universal single-payer healthcare and universal employment programs. (Don’t get us wrong, that would be terrific!)"

There they go threatening us with a good time again...

"(Heck, by wiping out much of humanity and civilization, nuclear war would end most greenhouse emissions, to say nothing of “nuclear winter.” Not that it’s a good idea.)"

I suppose his statement about "building Doral" is half true, he renovated the facilities after buying it in 2012. He also stiffed a lot of the contractors. Naturally.

Did he mention windmills killing whales?

There are both "windmill" and "whale" features in many putt-putt golf establishments. Think that might be the connection?

Expand full comment

What, no mention of off-shore wind farms killing whales, either?

If Trump ever got an environmental award it was like this beloved and much desired award.

Mr. Aguilera makes a great point about “saltwater intrusion in our drinking water supply” that I don’t see discussed enough. That’s a huge issue in Florida where the geology is more hydrology than rock. As the seas rise - we’re guaranteed another meter by the end of the century just from thermal expansion, and I suspect that is an underestimate - saltwater will intrude into the fresh water supplies of small towns like, say Miami. That will make southern Florida uninhabitable long before it is swallowed up by the sea outright. People there will become climate refugees and debtors whose homes retain zero value; how are we gonna handle that as a society?

You're complaining about having more ocean-front property?/trumpth

Same applies to here in New Orleans. Most summers now low water on the Mississippi is accompanied by a salt water wedge creeping up the riverbed from the Gulf, threatening the fresh water supply for New Orleans and adjacent (upriver side) Jefferson Parish, and actually causing alternative sources to need to be found for communities between the city and the river's mouth.
