Biden blames Kentucky tornado damage on 'climate change' to score political points

Like a broken-down vaudeville performer of old, Joe Biden has just a few acts in his repertoire and he’s sticking to them. One of those acts that he drags out as often as possible is climate change. So it was that, after the terrible damage when a tornado devastated Mayfield, Kentucky, Biden immediately said that the tornado is proof of global warming. (Other Democrats piled on with the same message.) However, the reality is that extreme weather events are getting less frequent.
More than 40 tornadoes touched down in a six-state region on Friday night, with the greatest damage centered on Mayfield, Kentucky. As of this writing, the death toll stands at 70 but it’s expected to rise as collapsed buildings are excavated. The disaster was a reminder that Nature is the most powerful force on earth.
