TV Cosmologist, Astrophysicist and climate advocate Neil deGrasse Tyson wants to “grab Trump by the Crotch” when he meets the President-elect to talk about science, to get his attention.

Neil deGrasse Tyson: I’ll grab Trump by the crotch when I meet him

Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson says he wants to use an unusual greeting when he meets President-elect Donald Trump.

“When I meet President Trump, I may first grab his crotch — to get his attention — then discuss Science with him,” Tyson tweeted Friday afternoon.

Sadly Tyson seems to have chickened out and deleted the original crotch grab tweet. Rather a shame really – Trump seems to like people who have the character to stand by what they believe. Having said that, I strongly suspect if and when President-elect Trump meets Tyson, Trump would prefer a traditional handshake rather than a crotch grab.

The following is a video of Tyson explaining why he thinks electing climate “deniers” represents the downfall of democracy.

How much is politicized science bias worth these days?

People on the left always show a lot of class – but it’s all low-class. What a shame that this “man of science” cannot act as a rational reasoning logical adult but instead must shamefully display his childishness in the face of opinions with which he does not agree.

There’s a pretty good list out there about all the times this clown has been schooled on science.
Raised way above his abilities it would seem.

Tyson’s “redo” of Sagan’s Cosmos was absolutely miserable & should never have been televised.

I think we can safely assume this is a crude metaphor, given that President-Elect Trump now has full Secret Service protection.

“Trump seems to like people who have the character to stand by what they believe.”
Sure he does. Just as long as you believe in what he believes in that day.

What an incredibly stupid thing to say in a public forum (where you KNOW it’s public).

November 21, 2016 1:09 pm

this is a prime example of why i question “people of letters” far too many of them seem to not even understand the most basic science…..the “climate” is not a force, has no power, and exerts ZERO control over weather, yet supposedly intelligent people talk as if it is some “force” or causes weather events…….the climate is simply a set of statistics.

These guys should really watch what they say or they might just end up reaping what they sow.
And some of them have already had it coming for a long time.

I would agree with this guy if there was science behind the claim. Claims are not science and majority opinion is not science. Projections and models are not science.
In fact all the hard evidence and observed, unaltered data not only don’t support the anthropogenic argument, they point toward the opposite conclusion. The real danger lies in the band wagon dogmatic ,agenda driven gospel of CO2 ,which is being promoted with all the enthusiasm of a carnival barker.

Huh, and the proper response from Trump would be to: A. knock him on his behind, or B. Say something about it being inappropriate. Either action should be initiated immediately, before 10 – 20 years passed, thus saving other Presidents from the same treatment /sarc
And if you took offense to Trumps comment come work backstage at any concert. There is a certain type of woman that will line up for that sort of treatment in hopes that she will be the one groupie he cannot live without. Gene Simons wife has had some dealings with these type of women and should be able to verify their existence.

Ripped from a comment on ZeroHedge:
One of Goebbels’ greatest insights was that believable and compelling propaganda must rest on facts not easily disputable. As long as he controlled the narrative, facts were readily available which could be tailored to suit.
Does this sound familiar?

Tyson might just be qualified to be a crotch grabber . He better hang on to something .The drain is about to open and the exaggerated claims of the hyperventing global warmies are in for an inconvenient truth .
The scam they have made a fine living from is over .
Time for a new big scary .

Yeah – just like Roy Spencer grabbed Senator Whitehouse in the same way (not). Too much class.
Show some respect!!! The Election is over!!!

The man’s been wrong about basic astrophysics, meteorology is well beyond his understanding.
