TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): In the hands of Democratic politicians, climate change is like systemic racism in the sky. You can't see it, but rest assured it's everywhere and it's deadly. And, like systemic racism, it is your fault. 

The American middle class did it, they cause climate change. They ate too many hamburgers, they drove too many SUVs, they had too many children. A lot of them wear t-shirts to work and didn't finish college, and that causes climate change too. And worst of all, some of them may vote for Donald Trump in November. 

And if there's anything that absolutely, definitively causes climate change, and literally over a hundred percent of scientists agree with this established fact, it is voting for Donald Trump. You might as well start a tire fire in your yard.
