I stopped watching Scott Adams years ago. Predicting Trump would win the election was no mean feat, as it sure did not look like that at first. Adams correctly identified the methods Trump used, the mechanism at work.
That does not make it right though. What I see is someone doing what suits him best while as the POTUS he should really be focusing on what's best for the USA. There is, for now, more money to be made with oil than science or green technology, so he plays the pipes of Big Oil.
It may radically change when the price of solar and wind not only competes but falls way below fossil fuel. Then the US, like everyone else, will switch over, and Trump will then lead the parade.
It may be too late though, there's a tipping point where the permafrost in Canada and Siberia melts and releases large amounts of methane, the oceans warm up too much and release large mounts of methane from methane hydrate deposits on the ocean floor and it all runs away to several degrees up, melting all the ice and raising the seas by 80 to 100 meters no matter what we do.
