Dem Senator: Donald Trump Was 'Childish' To Ignore Climate Change In His Big Speech

Democrats and progressive groups were appalled that President Donald Trump failed to mention climate change in his first major speech to Congress.

“I think it’s at this point just childish not to mention climate change in a world in which we’re seeing so many effects of it and one day it will be a sickening look back at the power of the fossil fuel industry over our democracy,” Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) told HuffPost after Tuesday’s address.
