Trump's Climate Plans Just Made the Media's Heads Explode

DELINGPOLE: Trump's Climate Plans Just Made the Media's Heads Explode:
"I’ve just watched the London liberal media’s heads exploding like ripe watermelons.
...The occasion was a press conference hosted by the Global Warming Policy Foundation for Myron Ebell, head of the Trump administration’s Environmental Protection Agency transition team. Satan’s Emissary, as liberals prefer to think of him.
Ebell had come to tell them about Trump’s plans for the environment and energy, which I won’t repeat here because you know them already. (It’s going to be beautiful, that’s all you need to remember.)
No, the reason I went wasn’t to hear what Ebell had to say but to watch how his audience reacted.
You know that scene in The Omen when Damien’s parents try to take him into a church? 
It was a bit like that. 
Or maybe the one in The Exorcist, where Regan’s head does a 360 degree spin.
They hated it. (Especially the bit where Ebell told them that Trump would definitely be pulling the U.S. out of the Paris climate treaty
They couldn’t believe what they were hearing. 
They curled their lips. 
They laced their questions with the bitterest scorn. 
But they didn’t really tune into Ebell’s measured, silken, soft-spoken answers because, hell, they knew what he was saying just had to be wrong and they didn’t really understand what he meant anyway..."
