In the 2018 book "The Fifth Risk," which details efforts to shrink the federal government under Donald Trump's first presidential administration, the author Michael Lewis described what it would mean to lose NOAA information. "Without that data and the Weather Service to make sense of it," Lewis wrote, "no plane would fly, no bridge would be built and no war would be fought — at least not well."The Utterly Unhinged© will keep his Superwide Sharpie ready for action.
Stupid is as stupid does
Trump has called climate change a hoax and said he would rollback climate regulations, and, according to Lewis's book, officials in the Trump White House did not know that NOAA existed or what it did when Trump took office in 2017.Nominating Gaetz, although may be only a semi-pardon, is clearly a shot across the bow of the populace
"So, you say I'm a total whack job? Try this for size. And there'll be more where that came from."What's odd is that the Republicans should be able to do simple arithmetic: he can't last much longer. Did you see the video of him being stuffed into that garbage truck? He starts out as a lame duck paper tiger. Now, it is true that Alzheimer's Ronnie was handled by Nancy for most of his second term. Same sort of thing for Wilson. FDR was physical, not mental, in case you're asking. Can there be a worthy successor? Not usually, outside real monarchies or dictatorships. We're not yet in the latter. Knock on wood.
