Questions Arise Concerning Whether GOP Candidates Remain Climate Skeptics
Marc Morano, publisher of Climate Depot, says he does not believe MSNBC’s claim many of the Republican candidates are changing their views on climate change is accurate.
“Let’s start with Trump,” Morano said. “He has not backed away from anything. He made some really silly comments about climate, about how China started it and mocking AGW when it snows, and now [he] sounds perfectly nuanced and sound on the issue.”
“I don’t see a shift in Trump,” Morano said.
“Rubio has been a deer in the headlights when it comes to climate change … He makes a reasonable skeptical statement and then seems to back away,” Morano said.
Morano says Cruz has always been the strongest critic of climate alarmism.
“Cruz is the most well-versed and the strongest candidate who understands global warming issues,” Morano said.
“So the Republican presidential candidates have not really softened their skepticism on global warming,” Morano said. “This is a warmist-mainstream media created narrative [that is] not backed up by facts.”
