On top of that, when scientists started going public about Global Warming, many idiots like the one you're answering to were all "nifty, nothing wrong with the weather being less cold" or "nuh huh, can't be true, there are more cold waves than, like, ever", not understanding what it was about (nor how a fridge works).

I only see conservative politicians within Democrat ranks.
