This afternoon on MSNBC, hosts and climate change propagandists Ali Velshi and Stephanie Ruhle sat back and stayed silent as their Democrat guest made an absurdly comical declaration about climate change.
While discussing the flooding state of emergency in New York, on MSNBC Live With Velshi and Ruhle, Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) told the hosts the natural disaster was not only due to climate change, but we never had these natural disasters before:
Ali, anyone who questions extreme weather and climate change is just delusional at this point. We have seen in the state of New York what everyone has seen, we have seen these weather patterns we never had before. We didn’t have hurricanes, we didn’t have super storms, we didn’t have tornadoes.
He went on to talk about the rescue missions, before coming back to his climate change activism:
“This is a recurring pattern. And anyone who is still in denial is making a very serious mistake,” Cuomo lectured.
When he was finished, co-host Ali Velshi thanked him and ended the interview. Just think if a Republican had come on the show to talk about a controversial issue, how the hosts would’ve reacted differently.
He or she would’ve been cut off, talked over or at the very least grilled to defend said statements afterward. But an obviously false claim made by a Democrat gets a pass on MSNBC.

This guy has an IQ smaller than instrumentation can measure. He and Democrats have failed their supporters in every state they represent. Please go away and take the likes of Justin Trudeau with you. I’m surprised that you can both walk and talk at the same time. Looser!

Apparently he didn’t grow up in Kansas. Goes to show the geographical bigotry of the left.

Cuomo is a denier, in that he denies the clear history of extreme weather events before CO2 hit 300 ppm.
Wtf is wrong with these people!?
We dig a good bit further back in history and cite the tornado that struck central Washington, D.C. at the height of the Britsh seige of our capital city in 1813 (near the climax of the War of 1812). This extreme weather event, as much as any military force staged by U.S. forces, convinced the attackers to retreat from Washington.
And while the historical conclusion of that tornado may be largely anecdotal, the verbal narratives of the time, make a very convincing case for the event. To think that it was otherwise means to deny that severe weather ever existed prior to the advent of technology to detect such things as tornadoes and hurricanes. In fact, we could extent the illogic and draw the correllation that satellites cause extreme weather since we lack hard evidence of such weather before we were able to see them from overhead or by doppler radar.
It appears this Nit-Wit never heard of the TRI-STATE-TORNADO that happened long before the pinhead was born we have had Tornados for many many years and its quite plain he has not seen The Wizard of Oz what a poltroon
