    Your derangement is truly without borders. Calling anyone who has turned millions into Billions stupid only exposes their own overly emotional state.

    Actually reality did. You should try it sometime.

    I can't wait for any of you liberals to prove the oceans are larger than the atmosphere. Go ahead, we would love to see more junk science in action to go along with so many EPIC failures your micro brain scientists have gotten so laughably wrong in failed long term predictions on the weather. :roflol::roflol::roflol:.

    Because its easier than facing reality. Emotion over fact is a way of life for so many liberals.

    LOL Don't worry I knew you couldn't address the facts about what he actually said. Your emotional state once again overriding reality. :)

    And yet you've said that you don't think Trump knows anything even when he says something that is demonstrably true.

    Take a moment to reflect upon whether you are operating under confirmation bias as well.

    It's a frickin' transcript. A verbatim transcript.

    the context of what Trump said
    the air is incredibly dirty. And when you’re talking about an atmosphere, oceans are very small

    Trump is correct when compared to our atmosphere the oceans are small

    Once again Trump deranged liberals taking his words out of context to push the fake narrative

    Its not the idiotic comparison that is the issue. Its the entire incoherence of the statement. Seems he can only spout half baked thoughts.

    But feel free to try and defend his inarticulate ignorance..

    A person can plead innocent of a messed up post, see who got blamed, say nothing, yet complain over something said by Trump. Not you Guavaball.

    My major concern was what would Democrats do. I knew Trump would stick to his promise and build the wall, and knew he would pin down Mexico, but one does take a risk by promising for other leaders. Trump no doubt wishes he said get the democrats to pay for the wall. But they are not one bit interested in this nations security. so taht too would end up looking bad.

    Nobody that voted for Obama should be calling Trump an imbecile.

    What a Rotten Job.

    People feeling that they have to "Defend" that CLUELESS ORANGE IMBECILE.

    What Thankless Job.

    Especially, when Trump's RAGING IMBECILITY is so Egregious that it is Utterly Indefensible (in any context).

    Well, I'm up for a challenge. Trying to make sense of Trump - well, let's parse it all out then.

    Yeah, that could be phrased better.

    Dunno if it's at a record clean, but I'd say we're doing better than before we had the EPA. Last month I read The Jungle by Upton Sinclair - we've improved since then

    Well, you can't argue with that. They are pretty darn polluted.

    Both statements ARE accurate. The last one is a bit obvious but whatever.

    That's some serious free association speaking right there. It's phrased pretty badly, but I guess we DO get tons of garbage from Asia, although I'm quite sure we deal with much more coming from our own beaches and septic systems.

    Hey AJ, isn't it time you proved him wrong if he's as dumb as you believe?

    He says that compared to the atmosphere, the oceans are small. Do tell us how he is wrong in this regard.

    I cannot wait to read this. :pc:

    What he said was just stupid. Ignorant.
    "And when you’re talking about an atmosphere, oceans are very small."
    That just doesn't make any sense, particularly in the content of a discussion of climate change.
    What is he comparing? Volume? Mass? Ability to absorb heat?

    He just offers up a word salad that has no real meaning and his cultists lap it up and think he is a genius for saying something that is meaningless.

    Reminds me of a story. Trump puts together a bunch of words that don't really mean anything. Every one of Trump's cultists hears exactly what he wants to hear.

    It's already been done in an earlier post. The mass of the oceans is much greater than the mass of the atmosphere. The oceans' ability to absorb heat is much higher than that of the atmosphere. Those are the measures that are important in the context of a discussion of climate change.

    So I think that more to the point, it is the fact that he brought up oceans AT ALL that is stupid.
    Not that he called them "very small" in comparison to the atmosphere, which isn't altogether incorrect is it? At least in terms of area.

    Yes, well Trump is certainly no scientist or even a man with any strong scientific knowledge! What if he had said, And when you’re talking about an atmosphere, area wise, oceans are very small?

    If he had said that it would be equally meaningless. Try any of these and see if they make any sense.

    And when you’re talking about an atmosphere, area wise, China is very small
    And when you’re talking about an atmosphere, area wise, the Great Lakes are very small
    And when you’re talking about an atmosphere, area wise, parachutes are very small
    And when you’re talking about an atmosphere, area wise, Wrigley Field is very small

    Factually correct maybe, but "when you're talking about an atmosphere", what does the physical size of something else have to do with anything?

    So, what are you saying? I don't get the complaint. He wants Asian countries that pollute without or with little regulation to come up to our standards... and somehow, that's bad? I'm confused.

    Only because the petrol and coal industries in the US have paid the Republicans to make it so,the rest of the planet disagrees with them.

    Not the Saudis, Iraqis, Venezuelans, and Iranians? Seems like they would still be living in tents and straw huts without the oil, but you go ahead. It's all the U.S. Sure...
