In seven hours on CNN, the leading Democratic candidates showed the first signs of weaponizing climate change in the primary campaign

"We have seen, I think, an arms race now, in a good way, of candidates competing to have the most effective plans," Washington Gov. Jay Inslee told CNN.

But he added if Goldman was in fact connected to the company, Western LNG, "I will not in any way accept his help." Warren said she “proudly adopted” many of Inslee’s proposals. Castro, who this week released his own plan to achieve net-zero emissions by 2045, offered a “shout out” to Inslee for the work he did in his campaign, while Harris quoted him directly.

“From my standpoint, what I’m saying is an order of magnitude different from what everybody else is saying,” Steyer told POLITICO of his approach to climate change. “What I’m saying is this is job one, and no one else is saying that … There’s no one else [in the primary field] who has a history of actual action on this of any kind.”

Brown, who ran unsuccessfully for president three times, said it would remain difficult for a Democratic presidential candidate to try to win an election solely on climate, an issue he said is “not like losing your job, or being denied treatment at a hospital, or being unable to find shelter.”

Do you know anybody that watch the first one? Who would sponsor this boring propaganda?

Are they just trying to get trump elected?

That's GREAT - Just let them Keep talking - the more they Talk the more they expose their low IQ's to the public

All CNN did was prove none of the 10 understand how the power industry works. msbc is a joke. They don’t understand either. Ignorance plays into Trumps hands.

Terrible idea. The costs associated with these plans, and the sacrifices asked of Americans and not third world countries, will alienate independents and Trump voters who hate being told to take 2 minute showers and go vegan from private plane owning elites.

And many of the others still in could get the respect they deserved if they picked up the role of advisor or surrogate. Even Williamson could have a role (because nice IS nice after all)

Yes, she is pretty good at stealing other people's ideas

So JoeBiden what did you decide? This is on Western LNG's website this morning.

Biden is gonna hit critical mass with voters soon.

And the hit jobs keep on comin'! And still he leads the field! Next?!!!!

Creepy Joe is so out of touch. Great candidate for the re-election campaign of Donald Trump. Thank you👏👏🇺🇸🇺🇸 Trump to destroy these 🥜🥜’s in 2020.

Hmmm, FAKE NEWS Joe?

A very good reason to JustSayNoToJoe

TRUMPS going after fucking LIGHT BULBS gang.. lets be clear how low this dude is going.. reality check.

The hurricane came in handy. These political scientists. Give me a break.

Because it is relevant and important to the survival of several coastal communities in the U.S. Extreme weather caused by human-induced climate change is costing American taxpayers billions/year and this has become a new norm.

Who knows, it might work...

By abortions population extinction, and changing all of US diet what we eat, these 2 pretty clever way's to stop it....not

The Democrats are going to Nuke a Hurricane? Do tell. Which one(s)?

She reminds me of Marcy Darcy from Married With Children, hen pecking every conceivable thing that people do. She’s a very annoying person who has served Massachusetts poorly.

I’m watching - It’s showing how little they really know.....

Our mission at is to build the social media platform that ends fake news

Did they ever think, what if they are wrong and mankind cannot fix the problems that mother nature has in store for us? That climate changes are normal changes of the earth. That we can be better stewards of the land ie cleaner water etc but, inevitably it is not our control

Weaponizing? What kind of mediabias bs is that

You did not hear Warren say, she wants government regulation on Lightbulbs ,Straws & Cheeseburgers she's in the Trump 2020 re-election train

lmao 😂 weaponizing is talking about topics people are demanding you talk about

Ha!

Don't say weaponizing climate change It's only going to encourage president trump to nuke a hurricane to prove us wrong

Talking about controlling what we eat will get trump reelected

Weaponizing? In what way? That's pretty inflammatory, Politico.

Warren! Warren! Warren! Warren!

Inside the next 5 months of 2020 Democratic campaign, before voters have their sayThe Democratic primary campaign, which remained remarkably stable throughout the summer, is suddenly entering a new period of uncertainty. Democrats and ‘remarkably stable’ do not belong in the headline together, ever. Democrats don't let the facts get in the way of the truth. CNN doesn't either. The Fake News network. We want Bernie. If not Bernie then RepMaxineWaters is the next smartest leader and should run.
