President Donald Trump was called ‘imbecile’ and ‘lunatic’ after he made a social media post about the impending winter storm, asking what happened to ‘global warming’. “Record Cold Wave expected to hit 40 States. Rarely seen anything like it before. Could the Environmental Insurrectionists please explain — WHATEVER HAPPENED TO GLOBAL WARMING???” Trump posted. At least 14 states have declared states of emergency as massive winter storms are expected to impact more than 170 million people across the US. The National Weather Service said it could bring “catastrophic ice accumulation” and could result in long-duration power outages, extensive tree damage, and extremely dangerous or impassable travel conditions,” including in many states less accustomed to intense winter weather. More than 1,800 weekend flights have already been cancelled, according to the tracker Flightaware, including many in Texas.

Back from Davos, already trolling
