So, if Trump promised a carbon tax, government so everyone could buy a Tesla, and said he would fight for a tougher Paris Climate agreement and fully instituted AOC’s Green New Deal, would they vote for him over Biden?
How important is climate change to voters in the 2020 election?
As Election Day nears, a majority of registered voters in the United States say climate change will be a very (42%) or somewhat (26%) important issue in making their decision about whom to vote for in the presidential election, according to a Pew Research Center survey conducted July 27-Aug. 2.
Nothing says “I care” like a poll in the middle of the summer
Registered voters supporting Democratic candidate Joe Biden and Republican President Donald Trump have very different perspectives on the issue. Nearly seven-in-ten Biden voters (68%) say climate change is very important to their vote. By contrast, only 11% of Trump supporters say the same. In fact, climate change ranks last in importance (out of 12 issues tested in a recent survey) for Trump supporters.
The issue of climate change has been growing in importance for Americans over time. Six-in-ten adults now view climate change as a major threat to the well-being of the U.S. – up from 44% who said this in 2009. And a January survey – fielded before the coronavirus outbreak – found a rising share citing climate change as a top priority for the president and Congress. In both instances, rising concern has been concentrated among Democrats, but not Republicans.
Yet, most refuse to give up their own use of fossil fuels, etc and so on, you know what I write.
Still, the share of all voters who say climate change will be very important to their vote (42%) trails behind other leading issues such as the economy (79%), health care (68%) and the coronavirus outbreak (62%).
So, basically, it’s a big nothingburger when moving from theory to practice. This article is basically a rehash at the Pew Institute of the previous article on the poll. Perhaps they should ask the climate (scam) voters questions like
- How much of your own money are you willing to give up, through taxes, higher energy, goods and food costs, to stop climate change?
- Are you willing to give up your own use of fossil fuels?
- Do you keep your AC above 80F and heat below 65F?
- Would you be willing to live in a tiny house to solve the climate crisis?
- Would you be willing to live in a world similar to the COVID lockdowns?
- Are you OK with government telling you where you can live, where you can travel and when, and how many kids you can have?
Warmists never think the bad things from their policies will hit them in their own lives.
So, if Trump promised a carbon tax, government so everyone could buy a Tesla, and said he would fight for a tougher Paris Climate agreement and fully instituted AOC’s Green New Deal, would they vote for him over Biden?
No.
You’re right. They won’t vote for Trump if he did that.
Because Trump wont promise them the 2 things that liberals hold near and dear.
1- Mandatory Gun buybacks, (aka confiscation) of all “semi-automatic” weapons, which leaves only revolvers and pump action rifles available for public use. Meanwhile, police and criminals who don’t follow the laws are free to have semi-automatic and fully automatic guns.
They need the guns to be confiscated before they implement their next big thing, (it’s so great, people will be in armed revolt when they figure it out):
2- “Free” healthcare for all, aka Medicare for all. Doctors are already protesting Medicare payment cuts as they cannot train new doctors or purchase the proper equipment. The Dems solution is to rollout Medicare for all, adding 300,000,000 people into the system. (Politicians and Superwealthy exempt, of course). This care will become so expensive the only solution will be to, (here it comes), give everyone’s 401K a “haircut”. I’m guessing 10-20% of everyone’s hard earned and sacrificed for savings as a “One Time Payment” which, unfortunately, will have to be made again and again every 10 years or so. People tell me everyone will be out in the street with guns at this idea, but I have to remind them that they voted for the people who took everyone’s guns away, remember?
If you like freedom, Vote Red.
If you wan to be controlled by the Nanny State because you’re to stupid to be trusted to make your own decisions, vote Blue.
7- Are you willing to live with fickle availability of electricity and rolling blackouts because solar and wind are not always reliable??
