As suggested at left, big money bets on science every single time.
As Aesop noted 2500 years ago, “A fool and his money are soon parted.” And, since generally the wealthiest individuals and corporations are anything but fools, they can be counted on to make decisions based on reason/science.
The rank-and-file MAGA supporter, on the other hand, has very little money to lose, and so there is little downside to poor thinking. These folks can be counted on to believe that climate change is a hoax, promulgated by dishonest scientists, the Hollywood elite, the anti-capitalist haters of America, etc.
At left we see an example of how the rest of the world views Trump and the United States of 2026.
A blend of pity, contempt, and ridicule.
The Rest of the World Can Scarcely Believe How Far the U.S. Has Fallen

From the New York Times: Trump Administration Pushes Narrative of Christian Founding at Rally
At the top of the news is the Trump’s administration’s day-long prayer event featured speakers from President Trump’s cabinet and a program that drew connections between the nation’s founding and Christianity.
However, as shown below, there is in fact no such connection.

I spend a decent amount of time on social media–enough to see the 5- to 10-fold increase in posts that are essentially long-debunked myths about solar and wind that has taken place over just the past few months.
