A day after an international team of scientists issued a dire warning about the severe and deadly consequences the world will soon face if action is not taken immediately to slow the rate of climate change, Trump finally responded. Well, sort of.

Trump didn’t say whether he accepts the findings from the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which warned that the world has only about 12 years to dramatically cut carbon emissions before the impact of climate change becomes irreversible.

Nor did Trump say whether the U.S. will join the global community in trying to avoid the most catastrophic effects of climate change by implementing stricter controls on pollution-causing emissions and investing in clean energy.

Trump didn’t even say whether he had looked at the report, nor whether he even planned to read it. He did, however, acknowledge that he was aware of the existence of the report. Well, sort of.

“It was given to me,” Trump told reporters on the White House lawn Tuesday. “I want to look at who drew it.”

1. That's because he's used to receiving his reports in crayon cartoon format. nt

[SHRED]

2. He doesn't read very well

I'm willing to bet that he has little comprehension of the written word.

3. and that

is why we are in trouble...

4. It was a graph, not a drawing. So he'll be hoping this is one paper that'll be whisked away.

And as to the graph not drawing I recall Garry Trudeau using that line in a Doonesbury cartoon spoofing Dan Quale 30 years ago.

5. "wrote" it, Little Donny...those groups of funny little shapes are called "words"

6. Dementia Don is losing his words

It's pretty clear that he's slipping into senility.

7. all them squiggly lines! they are called letters, who knew?

each time the orange asshole comments, if feel the average national IQ drop a few points.

8. And what difference would it make?

It's not like Trump knows about anyone in the scientific community, their credentials, their work, or their published papers. Trump's just mad because the report doesn't mention his name every other sentence, and it just goes on and on without any pictures to be colored in.
