Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has determined that this summer is excessively hot — and rather than the earth’s tilt coupled with the time of year, it’s “MAGA Republicans” who are at fault.
Clinton shared a graphic from the Center for American Progress, which showed a series of headlines about heatwaves and record high temperatures across the country along with the caption, “MAGA Republicans are pouring fuel on the climate crisis fire.” Clinton added her own thoughts as well, tweeting, “Hot enough for you? Thank a MAGA Republican. Or better yet, vote them out of office.”
Hot enough for you?
Thank a MAGA Republican.
Or better yet, vote them out of office. https://t.co/0MFC6rPq6o

The implication, of course, was that “MAGA Republicans” were directly causing the earth’s temperature to rise by standing in the way of the Left’s increasingly intrusive demands in the name of reducing global temperatures.
Critics quickly began to mock Clinton, some noting that unless it was particularly convenient for Democrats, most insisted that climate and weather were not the same.
“MAGA Republicans are powerful enough to control the seasons apparently, and without them we’d have no summer,” syndicated radio host Dana Loesch commented.

The Daily Wire host Matt Walsh weighed in as well, saying, “They are now directly blaming ‘MAGA Republicans’ for the temperature outside. The Democrat Party has fallen fully into a state of primitive superstition. They have all the scientific credibility of an Aztec priest in the year 1450.”

“If you elect Democrats the weather will improve,” Seth Dillon added.
“China permits two new coal plants each week. If you’re angry about climate change, thank a Communist. Or politicians like the Clintons who take their cash,” former CIA agent Bryan Dean Wright observed.

“Politicizing summer is the dumbest, most desperate and embarrassing of all the dumb, desperate and embarrassing things,” Doug Powers said.
“The almost (too bad!) democrat president encouraging her emotionally unstable followers to blame their political opponents for the weather,” radio host Buck Sexton replied.

A number pointed out the fact that comparatively speaking, the United States accounted for less than 15% of global emissions while China accounted for nearly twice that, at 27%.
