Fox News Host: Obama Should Work For Weather Channel If He's So Obsessed With Climate Change

Hosts on Fox News’ “The Five” are not happy that President Barack Obama is spending time addressing climate change while in Alaska this week.

“To me, it’s such a glaring example of priorities askew,” host Kimberly Guilfoyle said, arguing that the president should be focusing on escalating crime rates instead of climate change. “I fail still at this point to understand where he’s coming from because I don’t speak the language he speaks. ... He thinks the biggest threat to national security is climate change. Whoa. Where do you even go from there?”

Host Greg Gutfeld backed Guilfoyle, arguing that Obama is more concerned with the “academic, climate change-obsessed community” than communities where crime rates are up.

“He should work for The Weather Channel,” Guilfoyle suggested, adding later, “He’s like, obsessed with cumulus clouds.”

Obama is spending three days this week discussing climate issues in Alaska, a state both rich in fossil fuels and exceptionally vulnerable to the disasters posed by global warming. In June, Surgeon General Vivek Murthy declared that climate change presents a “serious, immediate and global threat to human health.”
