Does Donald Trump understand how the ocean works? Once again Monday night, he claimed that rising sea levels would create “more oceanfront property.” (wapo.st)

this seems on brand for Trump.

  • he doesn’t care that a lot of people will lose everything
  • there’s money to be made selling new beachfront property (who cares if it’s uninsurable or short lived)

He likely hasn’t thought much about it, but heard some talking head on Fox say something stupid and repeating it.
