Euroviews. A Trump win would see Africa (and the world) spiral into climate hell

African policymakers are bracing themselves for the return of Donald Trump. Having swept the Republican primaries, polls consistently put the former US leader neck-and-neck with incumbent Joe Biden in a presidential rematch.

Yet, a Trump victory could end up guaranteeing climate disaster for Africa and the world, and Europe must take note.

Of course, at the forefront of most African leaders’ minds is Trump’s undisguised racism, embodied in his expletive-filled rant denigrating African nations back in 2018.

He had also gutted practically all climate funding for dedicated USAID programmes in Africa — programmes initiated under Barack Obama that were crucial to promoting climate resilience by arming African governments with tech, funds and support to fight climate change.

The programme’s departure — although it has shown signs of a recent revival under Biden — marked years lost and contributed directly to the deepening humanitarian and environmental crisis that today impacts more than 110 million Africans.

But what happens in Africa will not stay in Africa. Climate change will intensify, not weaken, migration.

For US patriots who want to see secure borders, they would do well to recognise that the only way to do so is to support African nations in dealing with climate change.

I thought Africans were a bunch of “homophobes?” Don’t liberals think they deserve “hell?”

Liberals are the only ones who possess the godlike powers to change the weather across the entire world. Voting for Trump will plunge the world into darkness. Are they really that stupid, or do they simply count on the ignorance of the masses?

Are they really that stupid, or do they simply count on the ignorance of the masses?

The latter, that's why education is so dumbed-down these days.

[aomagrat]

Never underestimate the ignorance of the masses.

So, not they say Trump causes climate change... got it.

So if does get elected, but Africa doesn’t spiral into climate hell, will they apologize and shut up about climate change? Yeah, I don’t think so, either.
