Climate Scam Officially DEAD! New York Times SHOCK OPED: ‘Forget Climate Change. Democrats Need to Talk About Other Issues’ – ‘Marks the end of an era’ – Admits ‘American voters largely do not see climate as a top priority’

NYT OPED by a progressive socialist, Matthew T. Huber, author of “Climate Change as Class War: Building Socialism on a Warming Planet." 

'There is little reason for politicians like them to focus on the issue anymore' - Go silent on climate 'to regain credibility with working people' - For 'blue-collar voters, energy is an 'end of the month' issue' 

Democrats need to 'stop elevating a litany of single-issue policies' 

'American voters largely do not see it as a top priority' 


'When it comes to climate change, for now, it might be better to say nothing at all.'

'This shift among progressive Democrats on the campaign trail in many ways marks the end of an era' 

#

Climate Depot's Marc Morano responds: "You know the climate scam is officially over in polite society when a socialist academic declares on the pages of the New York Times that progressive Democratic candidates SHOULD GO SILENT on the issue formerly known as the greatest threat to humanity! Thank you, President Trump!"

Excerpt:

For the past several months, Democratic elites have been debating how much to talk about climate change, if at all — in part because these new candidates have narrowed their focus to energy affordability to win back the working class. It is a striking shift from a few years ago, when many Democratic politicians thought the promise of a Green New Deal would build a coalition based on green jobs and fighting inequality.
The voters who already prioritize climate action are firmly in the Democratic camp and highly educated and affluent, or as the economist Thomas Piketty calls them, the “Brahmin Left.” What candidates like Mr. Forstag, Mr. Reichard and Ms. Berg seem to understand is that for blue-collar voters, energy is an “end of the month” issue, and affordability should be the overarching policy goal. …
This shift among progressive Democrats on the campaign trail in many ways marks the end of an era. It was 20 years ago when Al Gore’s film “An Inconvenient Truth” helped to make concern around the climate crisis go mainstream. Then the 2008 financial crisis solidified the Obama administration’s narrative that economic recovery required a New Deal-like investment program centering on green jobs.
The Pew Research Center routinely asks Americans to rank their top concerns, and climate change is consistently near the bottom. The Searchlight Institute found that 59 percent of voters in battleground states are “bothered that climate change has become such a political issue,” while only 42 percent are “motivated to do more and support policies to address climate change.” Rather than building a broad coalition necessary to enact something like a Green New Deal, climate change has become yet another issue fueling polarization.
If Democrats reclaim the House and Senate, their first priority must be to materially improve workers’ lives, rather than propose a grand vision of an energy transition.
The Democratic Party remains deeply unpopular. The way out is to stop elevating a litany of single-issue policies that appeal to the already converted. When it comes to climate change, for now, it might be better to say nothing at all.
