Is 50 Inches Of Rain Enough To Make People Listen?

[TheMastersNemesis]

Major storms don't just drop 2 o3 or 4 inches of rain anymore. They are dropping rain in feet. So what will it take to run these deniers off the public stage.

I suppose Trump & company will claim that what happened is just normal.

1. They won't admit there is a connection to climate change

Denying reality seems to be a constant in American society today.

For every 1 degree increase in ocean temperature, a hurricane increases one category.

2. Trump and Co. will say it's a hundred year exception and shrug it off.

5. Yeah, it's just coincidence that Houston has had 100 years in 2009, '15, '16, & '17.

Four in eight years? Just a weird streak of probability.

3. Some will see it as a punishment from God

Religious grifters will say it is heavily retribution for the existence of some group they never liked to begin with. Then they will request money to keep fighting the good fight on God's behalf.

4. On Thursday, I overheard a coworker...

telling another worker that plants are the biggest sort of CO2 emissions, followed by volcanoes. Humans barely have any impact at all, he asserted.

The bottom line is this: regardless of the nigh-unanimous scientific consensus, Republican idiots will find any number of scapegoats, even as their own homes are flooding. They would rather face catastrophic loss "by God's will" than admit that evil liberal science is right.
