Donald Trump on climate change: "We have much bigger problems"

Pope Francis is touring America to preach the gospel of climate change. So naturally the gotcha left-wing media had to troll the GOP presidential candidates for sound bites.

Donald Trump didn't bite.

"I mean, Obama thinks it's the number one problem of the world today," Trump said. "And I think it's very low on the list. So I am not a believer. ... I believe there's weather. I believe there's change, and I believe it goes up and it goes down, and it goes up again. And it changes depending on years and centuries. But I am not a believer, and we have much bigger problems."

I agree Mr. Trump, we do indeed have much bigger problems.

Climate change isn't beheading Christians, or blowing stuff up.

Climate change isn't bringing millions of illegal aliens across our Southern border.

Climate change isn't giving a nuclear weapon to Iran.

Climate change isn't keeping our economy in the doldrums.

Climate change isn't leaving our veterans to die waiting for health care.

Climate change isn't trampling the Constitution in a quest to gut the First and Second Amendments.

Climate change isn't harvesting and selling baby parts on an industrial scale.

Climate change is merely the latest scheme being used to expand the power of totalitarian statists who want to regulate and control every aspect of our lives.

First they tried "The Population Bomb" — we're all gonna starve to death!

Then it was "Peak Oil" — we're running out of gas!

Next came "Global Cooling" — we're all gonna freeze to death!

Which somehow reversed into "Global Warming" — we're all gonna drown!

And is now the catch-all of "Climate Change" — everybody panic!

Meanwhile, radical Islamists are invading Europe, and the U.S. The Middle East is falling apart. China is rattling her sabers, and hacking our computers. Russian tanks are on the move. Millions of Americans have given up on ever finding a job. Millions more are forced to live on government handouts, causing our national debt to grow more unmanageable by the day. And the current administration spends most of its time spying on ordinary Americans.

In fact, almost 3/4 of Americans now believe our country is no longer as great as it once was.

Here's a pro tip: climate change isn't going to make America great again.
