Trump & GOP Push Misinformation on Hurricanes as Climate Crisis Intensifies Across Globe

We also speak with David Wallace-Wells, a writer for The New York Times opinion section and a columnist for The New York Times Magazine, where he frequently writes about climate. He says the popularity of conspiracy theories during extreme weather events shows that many people are retreating into little cocoons of disinformation and paranoia, and that scares me in some ways even more than the weather itself."
