This is both the funniest and scariest thing Donald Trump told Piers Morgan
Donald Trump had lots to tell Piers Morgan in his interview for ITV, and here he is on climate change, simultaneously both the funniest and scariest thing he had to say.
The President of the United States @realDonaldTrump is asked if he believes in climate change. This is his answer: #TrumpMorgan pic.twitter.com/sKeVM9FL4l

We know he believes in clean water because – look – he asked for a little hat to be put on his glass during his Morgan interview.
Just in case the cue card guy tries to poison him, presumably.
Anyway, back to what he said about climate change.
Did he really actually say that or are you just paraphrasing ….?) it's weird that I even have to ask… like when I can't tell the difference between his real twitter and the parody account …

Word for word transcription of his answer.

I hope it's parody, but fear it's not.

It’s not surprise that what he says makes no sense and reflects an ignorance that wouldn’t be expected from an 11 year old. #TrumpMorgan

Indeed. I have a son who is 11 and I would be mortified if he produced an answer like this.

Ice cap levels are at record LOWS, and the president of the US is spreading anti-science bullshit. This is one of the very worst consequences of electing this blinkered moron. He's putting the whole world in danger.

Truly astonishing this Trump interview with @piersmorgan. He actually just said globe's ice caps are at 'record level', and implied record cold. Can't grasp diff between average temps and weather. Ignores NASA's own stats showing 10 warmest years on record hv occurred since 1997

The Guardian’s done a list of soundbites from the pair’s ITV chat, including this one where he talks about how popular he is in the UK.
“I think I’m very popular in your country. I know but I believe that, I really do. I get so much fan mail from people in your country. They love my sense of security, they love what I’m saying about many different things. We get tremendous support from people in the UK.”
