Fox News and the entire GOP is so terrified of Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s success that they are mocking him for asking New Yorkers to be careful with their thermostats during an extreme heat wave. This is the same advice Trump’s Energy Department has suggested as well.
Not only do they look foolish, but they appear desperate in their efforts to smear and ridicule a popular political rival.
This morning on Fox and Friends, the three co-hosts were beside themselves that the mayor of New York City would ask residents to turn the thermostat higher to conserve energy so that there aren’t any blackouts during this massive heat wave.
Jimmy Carter asked the nation to turn down thermostats ~50 years ago, and these people are still freaking out about it.
Carter was promptly voted out of office and replaced with Ronald Reagan. We all know how that went.
It might have had something to do with Carter putting solar panels on the White House roof as well. Or the backroom deal that Reagan’s people made with the Khomeini regime to keep the American hostages in captivity until after the election. Who knows.
They must think a certain 2013 party anthem by DJ Snake and Lil Jon is actually about thermostats.
