Trump tweeted this:
This is so easy (though deserving) to dunk on I'm actually going to rate the celeb tweets reacting to this!
The winner:
Mo Collins from MadTV:
Runner-up: Vinny from Jersey Shore with an important lesson in both climate modeling and not judging a book by its cover:
Second runner-up: Some might argue that
Dictionary.com isn't a celebrity, but it's definitely a household name!
It's not quite as good as Mo Collins wishing for Trump's penile remainder to freeze and fall off, but it's not far behind! Chelsea Handler with a helpful suggestion for Trump:
David Simon, creator of
The Wire, decides to borrow Trump's phrasing but with a radically new context. Just like his TV show, I'm not a big fan.
Darren Hayes, of the disbanded musical group Savage Garden, is from Australia, a country wracked by droughts and heat waves, is rightfully mad. But I'm not here for him calling Trump a cum dump! That's a cum-pliment!
Jeffrey Wright decides to be educational, and links to an explainer article on Scientific America. In terms of responses to Trump, it's a bit dry… but then so are many parts of the world as a result of climate change!
Music video director Joseph Kahn brings up Puerto Rico for several reasons: The US territory is still suffering horrible effects from a weather disaster that was likely exarcerbated by global warming. The Trump administration has and continues to fail in its duties to the island. So this tweet has a lot of depth, just like a lot of places will be after sea levels rise!
Tom Arnold seems to be suggesting that Trump is lying for attention based on their former acquaintance. But I really think Trump believes global warming is a hoax. It's something he's repeatedly said, like when he said it was a Chinese conspiracy to ruin the US economy.
"Guardians of the Galaxy" director James Gunn has a very nice, useful and understandable analogy to help debunk Trump's tweet:
Legendary songwriter Diane Warren shows that her knack for expressing popular sentiments in the simplest terms:
He was once a pioneer of communication, with the innovative method of drawing dicks on photos with MS Paint. But Perez Hilton has resorted to delivering the truth is a much less imaginative way with this tweet:
Wil Wheaton responded to Trump's tweet with this. It's not particularly artful or anything, but it's what we're all thinking!
Dan Levy from
Schitt's Creek has it covered for those of us who are feeling despondent that the most powerful man in the world is a climate change denier:
Let's end on a classy note with this eloquent and dignified tweet from Sean Astin:
