You religious fanatics never leave me without laughter.
Coastal erosion is natural, with or without a sea level change.
To be so ing stupid and believe everything bad is caused by AGW...
Just how ing stupid are you?
He's a sophist of an order that should make our local GOP sycophants proud.

But he is also trying to build a sea wall designed to protect one of his golf courses from “global warming and its effects.”
The New York billionaire is applying for permission to erect a coastal protection works to prevent erosion at his seaside golf resort, Trump International Golf Links & Hotel Ireland, in County Clare.
A permit application for the wall, filed by Trump International Golf Links Ireland and reviewed by POLITICO, explicitly cites global warming and its consequences — increased erosion due to rising sea levels and extreme weather this century — as a chief justification for building the structure.
The zoning application raises further questions about how the billionaire developer would confront a risk he has publicly minimized but that has been identified as a defining challenge of this era by world leaders, global industry and the American military. His public disavowal of climate science at the same time he moves to secure his own holdings against the effects of climate change also illustrates the conflict between his political rhetoric and the realities of running a business with seaside assets in the 21st century.

Trump said that AGW was cause in his pending application. My point was that he fits in right with our local nihilist dimwits such as yourself.
You shouldn't call people stupid when your reading comprehension is demonstrably poor in your own post.
Blogger lover Fuzzy...
What has he really said? I'll bet you only know that the opposing pundits want you to believe.
There is certainly a change in weather that goes – if you look, they had global cooling in the 1920s and now they have global warming, although now they don’t know if they have global warming. They call it all sorts of different things; now they’re using “extreme weather” I guess more than any other phrase. I am not – I know it hurts me with this room, and I know it’s probably a killer with this room – but I am not a believer. Perhaps there’s a minor effect, but I’m not a big believer in man-made climate change.He acknowledges it with the sensibility of facts, not what the IPCC pundits say.Well I just think we have much bigger risks. I mean I think we have militarily tremendous risks. I think we’re in tremendous peril. I think our biggest form of climate change we should worry about is nuclear weapons.

He's a politician. He will say what is necessary to get what he wants. I suggest you acknowledge he does believe in AGW, but just not a catastrophic scenario. Besides, very much of the sea level change is natural. We simply don't know how much of the rise is due to AGW. We can only guess.
now your just moving the goalposts.
He's a big enough believer to ask for infrastructure he will pay for himself to counter it to protect his investments. Money talks, dimwit, you go fellate to rhetoric like the fool you are.

Again, dimwit, he cites climate change as cause for an expensive sea wall to protect his investment.
The entire point of your 'catastrophic' rhetoric is to mitigate that type of thing as if true it doesn't matter. I don't think you even if I understand it so I don't have to acknowledge . I think like actuaries do in terms of hazards to property and the like. Nonetheless, his actions belie your narrative.
When in Rome. Gotta give the bureaucrats a reason they can love. He (or any businessman) would tell them it would keep zombies out if that's what it took to get a seawall to keep his property from eroding.
Idiot.
Your linked material says he asked for a permit to build it. That would suggest he is using his own money. Not "public infrastructure."
Fuzzy doesn't comprehend business.
I wonder if he ever had to apply for a building permit? Does he even know what they are, and how expensive they can be?
Him putting up his own money doesn't lead to the conclusion that you want, dimwit.
But hey you won a point of fact!![]()
Another completely failed Fuzzy thread!
I went ahead and took out the word public and correctly pointed out he was going to use some of his own money. It reads now as
My overall point still stands. You guys desperately trying to win points of fact oblivious to the big picture is hilarious.
Maybe his interest in stopping erosion is real rather than political?
I am not making such a judgement because I'm not that stupid.
But... we all know you will judge without facts.
Idiot...
You bear the "forum jester" badge real well... Always good for some stupid comedy!
And now we have the wishful thinking. Your claim that maybe he just cited AGW for political expediency is amusing. I will again point out your lack of consideration to the big picture. MY OP states he is a sophist to make you guys proud. I called it.
The I know you are but what am I response at the last is cute.
Just wait until all the wealthy Repugs with multi-$M beach front houses get flooded by AGW rising sea levels.
Then they'll be whining, begging the HATED Feds and taxpayers to bail out their greedy, corrupt asses.
Just like taxpayers bail them out of extremely high flood/storm insurance by subsidizing Fed flood insurance, which is in a multi-$B deficit.
Y'all are wasting your time arguing about what Trump really believes. I don't think Trump himself has spent time thinking about the issues and arriving at an opinion. He probably reads internet forums and bumper stickers to decide what he wants to say on any given day.
There are only 3 Trump statements where I think was being totally honest:
1. "I am totally flexible on very, very many issues"
2. "Everything is negotiable"
3. "I love the poorly educated"
