Where do I start with this moronic, low IQ diatribe from Trump?
1/7🧵
Trump is back to lying and inventing that Finland clean the forest floors. The last time he came out with this outrageous invented lie, in 2018, the Finnish president said he never had this conversation with Trump, and no such thing takes place.

2/7bbc.com/news/world-eur…
In other words, this ridiculous fabrication of Donald Trump was comprehensively dealt with 7 years ago, and yet here he is, spouting the same lies again.
3/7
Trump says, about the LA wildfires "it was up to 100mph winds, unheard of".

Winds are part of the climate system, and if we experience winds never heard of before, this strongly indicates climate change. In other words, Trump is contradicting his own climate change denial.
4/7
How the hell did this low IQ, pathological liar, who is the walking embodiment, of the Dunning-Kruger effect, ever become US president again (it's a rhetorical question as it happened because the media never held this conman and liar to account).
Trump won the US presidential election for the simple reason, that he and the Republicans told a torrent of lies, and no one challenged him or contradicted him. The people who voted for Trump, were duped.

Yes, the Democrats are also liars, but just not to this degree.
6/7
In just a few words, I have just demolished Trump's ridiculous explanations for the LA Wildfires, and how he is contradicting his own climate change denial. Trump is not an intelligent person, and is rather stupid.
7/7

@DoctorVive This is an excellent article, but I go much further. I say these actuaries are totally underestimating the likelihood of total system collapse, and the economy collapsing to nothing, in the near future. No one is studying the stability of our system.

1/pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
@DoctorVive I am not trying to be alarmist, but I noted a complete gap in expert thinking, many decades ago. The robustness, and stability of our whole system, is taken for granted. As if at best, it would only slowly decline. There is little understanding it is a process.
2/
@DoctorVive At the moment, the only glue that holds our societies together, is the common pursuit of economic growth. Even a slight slow down, let alone collapse of it, introduces massive financial, economic, political and societal instability.

THE HUGE problem of our modern society today, is rich and powerful people, can say and do the most deranged and dangerous things, and it'll be ignored, simply because of who they are.

If ordinary people did what the rich and powerful did, they'd be detained for public safety.
1/
People make excuses for them. The richest man in the world, does a blatant Nazi salute, twice, and people make excuses for him.

They say it wasn't really a Nazi salute, but a Roman salute, which is not an actual thing.

2/
Donald Trump, becomes a fully deranged megalomaniac, and suggests invading Greenland, Canada, Mexico, and Panama, and no one blinks an eye.

No one says, I think there's an insane man in the White House, he needs to be detained for public safety.

The attitude of @Keir_Starmer and @RachelReevesMP seems to me, to be outright climate crisis denial. They seem to be in total denial of the scientific evidence.

I have repeatedly pleaded for the term climate crisis denier to be used, instead climate change denier.
1/🧵
By climate crisis denier, I mean anyone who denies there is a climate crisis, an existential threat to our civilization, unless we take urgent and rapid action to start rapidly reducing our carbon emissions, in line with the @IPCC_CH's SR15.

2/ipcc.ch/sr15/
Please note, I am fully aware that the SR15 alone is inadequate, and there is virtually no chance of holding warming below 1.5C. But we must aim to get as close to it as possible.

"Economic growth is more important to the UK government than net zero, Rachel Reeves has said ..."

This is not only what is wrong, with the UK Labour government, but how neoliberalism, rots your brain.

1/🧵theguardian.com/business/2025/…
The primary thinking error of @Keir_Starmer @RachelReevesMP and all the neoliberals, is that by ignoring the climate crisis, that they will somehow create economic growth in the future. Actually, climate change they're ignoring, will kill future economic growth.
2/
Don't take my word for it.

"Global economy could face 50% loss in GDP between 2070 and 2090 from climate shocks, say actuaries"

However, these actuaries have totally underestimated the timeframe, and fall in economic growth.

I think most people gather what I am trying to say here, but I will clarify it.

The reelection of the grossly unfit for public office, Trump, has been facilitated, by the behaviour of our other leadership through time, by their own crimes, and their neoliberalism.
1/9
Neoliberalism, treats people in a horrible dehumanized way, as if they are only consuming units, in an economy, not real people. Remember, Trump is also an extreme neoliberal, he just pretends to be different. He is primarily a liar and a conman.

2/9theguardian.com/news/2017/aug/…
The only difference between Trump and other neoliberals, is his threatening tariffs, protectionism etc. But this might just be bluster, because if Trump tries to protect the US economy with tariffs, it might be the US economy, which suffers most.

The president of the United States is a convicted felon, and adjudicated rapist, who'd numerous other pending cases against for serious offences, which he had no credible defence/defense. He's only not in prison, because he's president.

This is a mockery of the rule of law.
1/🧵
Clearly some people, are above the law, and it questions the moral authority of the US Government to prosecute anyone, when the executive in charge of the government is a repeat criminal offender, using his office to avoid appropriate punishments and further prosecution.
2/
Trump and his supporters, use the false argument, that these cases were politically motivated. This is clearly a lie, as they were clear contraventions of the criminal code. The tacit assumptions of these arguments, are some people are above the law.
