During the winter, the primary driver of climate is sea surface temperatures. Every mainstream seasonal weather forecaster will tell you the same thing. During the summer, soil moisture also becomes important.
Until someone establishes a link between sea surface temperature and CO2, claims that CO2 is driving the climate are complete nonsense. Until GCMs can forecast sea surface temperatures, their output is also complete nonsense.
These facts should be obvious, even to the most clueless climate scientist at the US space agency.

that one of greatest flaws in cagw. no one has ever suggested a mechanism, and i suspect they all hope no one ever asks about a mechanism.
As I understand from a comment by Bob Tisdale on WUWT, the GCMs take no account of ocean cycles nor SSTs.
Amazing.
If they can’t forecast them, they can’t use them.
which all still moot in the absence of a mechanism showing that co2 drives sst
They had to use CO2 because they do not understand climate!
Sorry to introduce some science to ‘Real Science’ but the primary driver of climate – both Winter and Summer is the Sun and the tilt of the Earth’s axis relative to the plane of revolution.
No Lazarus. It is the thermonuclear reactions going on in the interior of the Sun.
I’d go along with that but that still contradicts the nonsense you stated above.
