It's not what they say but how they say it is what I find most disturbing.
I didn't rent or subscribe so all I have to go on is the abstract. It's a good one but you're disturbed?

The effects of education on people’s climate change beliefs vary as a function of political ideology: for those on the political left, education is related to pro-climate change beliefs, whereas for those on the political right, these effects are weak or negative.
I parse it as Left-leaning peoples' belief system is more easily propagandized.

Trump will do what he did in Ukraine. Sell precision man portable heavy weapons on credit to the apple of Russias eye and all of a sudden russia will stop and want to negotiate.
So he's not their lapdog? What's this apple-of-the-eye stuff? Ukraine after their color revolution? They saved Crimea from that fate, but lost the Eastern provinces.

You're right though, he is the negotiator. Somebody launched that missile at Hawaii (defining moment of the 2010s) and it brought Kim Yong Un to the border with his hand out.
