One thing for sure, he would take his army of Hummers out on the road and terminate global warming once and for all.

In the 1970’s we were told that cold winters were associated with the rapid increase in Arctic sea ice. In recent years we were told that cold winters were due to declining Arctic sea ice.

This prompted the Washington Post to ask the obvious question :
