"Climate" refers to the average temperature over 100 years or more. We are using averages from 10 or 20 years to depict changes and trends. An average has days that are above average and other days that are below average. Also, when you say "global" you are referring to the entire globe, not merely the US. At the exact same time that a large swath of the US has below average temperatures there are even larger swaths of the Globe that have above average temperatures. In the past 365 days in the US we have had 3.03 record hot days for every record low day. That by definition is climate change.
I am disgusted that Trump could make such an ignorant and inconsiderate comment at a time when many, many people in this country have lost their homes and the lives of their loved ones in catastrophic, climatic events.

You get fired up about everything he says or does. You really need to relax. So now we blame Trump for every natural disaster? So lame.
It used to be Bush who got blamed for all of them. For that, Bush should be grateful to Trump. Historians will now be kind to Bush, since they have Trump to blame everything for.
