    The grim irony is that a lot of the pain will be felt in red Southern and Western states.* When the power grid goes down for good in Texas in 15 years or so, nursing homes filled with a lot of these climate skeptics are not going to be fun places.

    *Yes, pour one out for SoCal.

      And they’ll still blame the left. These people will never admit they were wrong about this. They will go to their graves claiming climate change is a hoax, even as the world that they were meant to leave for their children and grandchildren literally burns around them.

        They’ll blame it on renewables, even thought it’s only like 9% of Texas’ power, and they’ll ironically complain there’s not enough coal and gas fired generation plants.
