    The Trumpster Wants to Build a Seawall in Ireland

    Here's a good one:  Donald Trump has spoken out quite emphatically against climate change calling it a hoax and fabrication.  Ok, fine.  However, we now find out that he wants permission to build a seawall in Ireland to protect his golf course from rising waters do to climate change.

    The inconsistencies just keep piling up!

    We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

    So Trump denies that climate is occurring, so there won't be any government policies to protect the interests of the little guy. But, he will use his wealth to protect his own interests.

    And, he's a populist?

    This is a result of Scottish lawmakers rejecting Drumpf's demand that they disallow a wind farm that was being built offshore because it ruined the view from his classy golf resort. He was basically laughed out of the room by those elected officials. So, he bought this Irish golf course. I guess a seawall is more useful and attractive than windmills that generate clean energy.
