Trump knows climate change is real.
So does every other billionaire.
If you travel the galaxy you’ll see planet after planet without an atmosphere. Many of these airless wastelands had an atmosphere once. Atmosphere is fragile, thin and can literally disappear overnight. Ours is no different.
How do you survive the coming climate crisis?
- Horde wealth. Not for the future. For now. To build what you need to build to survive.
- Hide the truth. Most people are going to die. Deny facts to buy time.
- Prepare to defend. The coming wars will be brutal.
Trump & company know full well what is coming, what it will take to survive and who will survive. Not many. But the idea is the only way to survive is to buy survival. Putin knows. MBS knows. All the elite knows. They’ve no time left for quaint little notions of democracy & equality. Survival has a price tag only the super-rich can afford.
You don’t think the infamous Wall is about immigration, do you? It’s to keep out the coming horde of climate refugees from the soon to uninhabitable south.
Trump knows what’s coming. He’s got a plan. You’re not in it.
