From The Independent
Donald Trump has again appeared to fundamentally misunderstand climate change by suggesting extreme cold weather in the US is evidence global warming does not exist.
“In the beautiful Midwest, wind chill temperatures are reaching minus 60 degrees, the coldest ever recorded,” Mr Trump tweeted late on Monday evening.
“In coming days, expected to get even colder. People can’t last outside even for minutes. What the hell is going on with Global Waming (sic)? Please come back fast, we need you!” he added sarcastically.
It follows a number of recent tweets by the president expressing gleeful disregard for the scientific consensus that holds human carbon emissions responsible for recent global temperature increases.

You know, there are times when I almost start to believe that Mr. Trump's "ignorance" is a deliberately put on persona. Then I take my meds.
Trump fundamentally confuses climate change link with extreme cold weather: 'Global Warming? Please come back fast, we need you!'
