  • I don't believe in Trump anymore, he's an illusion
When will Greta and the other Gaia worshiping mush brains and greenbots start pontificating about this all China's own fault for their massive pollution causing the climate change which resulted in the flooding and demand that they destroy their economy and people by reverting to the stone age? Oh wait I forgot they aren't evil America so they can pollute and destroy the environment all they want.

I know it's not right because the people are suffering for their governments actions but I couldn't help but notice that in the background of this picture it looks like people are still lined up for the MickeyD's in the high rise.
