Changing Climate Changers

 PRESIDENT BIDEN'S climate change tsar, John Kerry, does not deny the reality of human made climate change by carbon, and can therefore be safely relied upon to not support Donald Trump's desire to reinvigorate the dying coal industry with government subsidized socialism, nor to pretend that eighty five degree days in Iowa in October mean nothing. For that the world should be grateful. Noam Chomsky, world renowned intellectual and therefore neither a conservative, an evangelical Christian, nor widely known in America, pointed out several years ago that the fate of the world might hinge on the twenty twenty election. It did, in the sense that either the U.S.A. starts helping reverse climate change in earnest, or dooms her great grandchildren to celebrate the holidays in a steamy, one hundred and twenty degree winter wonderland. The good news is that, by a margin of six million, the American people voted to at least make a token effort to keep the world on its hinges. the bad news is that those who would remove the hinges are still very much among us. Noam Chomsky, who at ninety two likely would not have survived a second Trump term in office, as neither might not anyone else, can now spend his final years with some measure of belief in the future of humanity. In this context it matters little how long the Trump movement's temper tantrum lasts, other than for comic relief. John Kerry's carbon tax will apply to everyone, including those among us sufficiently deluded to attend MAGA rallies during the Biden administration, screeching "lock her up!" and "stop the steal!" at nobody in particular, without having the foggiest notion that it is they and their delusional leader who are in fact trying to pull off the steal. That cow already having long left the barn - and bear in mind that the countless Trump lawsuits contesting the election which are being thrown out of nearly every court in America allege nothing about electoral fraud - but have so far been concerned only with highly technical, picky details of election procedure, such as matching signatures and methods of ballot counting and whether observers were allowed to stand five or six feet from counting tables. One would think, wouldn't one, that if massive fraud did actually occur on a colossal scale, that Trump's lawyers would at least know enough about it to present evidence of it in court. Trump's supporters will instead soon be reduced to resuming their status as deniers of climate change and science in general, and complaining about everything the Biden administration does simply because its being done by a Democrat.. They'll spend the rest of their lives pretending to believe that the election was stolen, as will Trump, and, like the rest of their delusion, their credibility will fade inexorably, and mercifully.
