Media Loses Mind Over Fringe Alt-Right That Has Nothing to Do with Trump
RUSH: Look, this is the AP: "Trump Begins Backing off Campaign Vows on Clinton, Climate." Folks, do not believe this stuff.
I am imploring you -- and I know how hard it is. It is axiomatic. It's almost automatic to believe what you see on the news, even when you know who they are. It takes a conscious effort, particularly if these stories are designed... If they make you mad, if they make you think, "Well, this Trump guy's lied to me," do not automatically believe these stories. Trump did not "walk back his claims on climate change." He did not do it. He argued with them about it at the New York Times.
They get first dibs. They were live tweeting, so they get to tweet whatever they want to tweet that he says, and then they did the report since the interview was with them. Whatever they say, the other news agencies automatically pick up and run with. I know it's hard. For example, here's a post from the Global Warming Policy Forum. "Reality check: Donald Trump on ClimateGate and the Paris Agreement," and it's a reassuring story. They detail how he did not "cave," he did not "walk back," he did not "back off," as the AP says.
They point out... The people that are really wrong on climate change are people like Thomas Friedman, the columnist at the New York Times, who sits there and salivates over the prospect that we would have a government like China where "the smart people" could just implement everything without having to go through the democratic process, which is exactly what we've had. Most of the reporting on this has come from the tweets that the New York Times tweeted out during the actual interview.
That's where AP, CNN, Reuters all get their "Trump walked back," "Trump backing off." Trump's doing no such thing, yet. I'm begging you. I'm begging you to make a conscious effort to resist believing this stuff and either wait for me to set it straight or try it on your own. Now, I'm gonna have... I'm gonna have Koko up at the website post this link 'cause I've got to get into other things here, but this is the Global Warming Policy Forum. It was posted today. Here's the site: www.TheGWPF.com. We'll find it. We'll post the link at RushLimbaugh.com, and you can read this for yourself.
The bottom line is the transcript of his New York Times interview shows it's far too early to know what Trump's gonna do about climate and energy policy.
