“Climatism/Warmism are liberal morons’ new age religion.”.It has unfortunately taken on a fanatically religious zeal. What bothers me personally is the cries of “something has to be done”; simply because things ARE being done. Vehicles are far more fuel efficient, alternative energy is SLOWLY becoming more cost effective and therefore viable. Smog has GREATLY been reduced in my lifetime (at least here in the states)..More needs to be done? Sure I’m with you; but holy sweet mother stop foaming at the mouth.
The demographics are all trending toward the Democrats. New voters register as Democrats twice as often as they do as Republicans ( though more than half register as independents). But, even the independents agree with Democratic positions on the issues they consider most important. There have been previous situations where one party was the subject of “The Party’s Over” books. But they were able to come back by appealing to demographics that the other party didn’t have in their pocket. The only people that aren’t solidly in agreement with Democratic positions are far left wingers and far right wingers. There aren’t enough far right wingers to win a national election. The Republicans can’t make their tent big enough to include the far left wingers without the people already in the tent setting it on fire. It’s pretty hard to imagine a situation where any of the available Republicans can beat any of 5-8 possible Democratic candidate, and most incumbents are reelected. That means we are most likely going to have a Democratic president through 2024, by which time a huge number of those angry old white guys that are now the bulk of the Republican base are going to be dead.The upshot is that there is a darn good chance that we will never again have a Republican president.

Bad News: All the contractors on the Ark are illegal aliens. Good News: It’s guaranteed to float…for 38 days.

Did you actually see where those predictions failed to happen…or did you only HEAR bout them?
