2020 candidate says Trump's climate change skepticism is 'treasonous'

2020 Democratic presidential candidate and Washington Gov. Jay Inslee claimed Thursday that President Trump is lying about climate change and characterized his stance on the issue as treasonous.

“If we had a president of the United States who told us that the Communist threat was just a hoax perpetrated by the Council of Foreign Relations, you know, that would have been, if not treasonous, at least something that — a moral abomination. And we cannot allow ourselves to become accustomed to this,” Inslee said at the Council of Foreign Relations.
