Joe Biden’s climate Czar, John Kerry, made a somewhat bizarre comment to attendees at the COP28 climate meeting in Dubai.
Kerry said the United States could be trusted to act on “climate change” because the democratic process “is like sex.”
What?
The US’s word “is 100 percent percent good,” said Kerry, assuring attendees that any Trump presidency “won’t stop global green transition.”

During Trump’s presidency, he challenged various political and environmental orthodoxies and ultimately pulled the US out of the 2015 Paris Agreement.
Trump’s move was part of his promise to voters during the preceding election campaign.
Trump said the withdrawal aligned with his “America First” directive, which put American workers and jobs first.
The commander-in-chief faced attacks from Democrats and Republicans for the move.
“Could he, or someone else who doesn’t want to listen to the science, or doesn’t read about it or care about the facts, have an impact? Yes,” John Kerry said.
But they are “not going to stop what is happening” — a global movement toward “a low-carbon or no-carbon economy.”
Earlier this week, Kerry s said coal plants should not be permitted “anywhere in the world” during a speech at the COP28 climate conference in Dubai.
Regarding climate policies, Kerry said he is becoming “more and more” militant because he claims people are avoiding responsibility and not doing what they are told.
“We don’t need that necessarily to tell us we ought to be transitioning out of coal,” Kerry said.
“There shouldn’t be any more coal power plants permitted anywhere in the world.”
