It's just another Monday, and Donald Trump has confused weather with global warming... again.

For what seems like the hundredth time, the US president took to Twitter on Sunday to demonstrate he still doesn't know the difference between weather and climate change, while attacking Amy Klobuchar, the Minnesota senator who announced that she was running for the presidency over the weekend.

The president wrote:

Well, it happened again. 

Amy Klobuchar announced that she is running for President, talking proudly of fighting global warming while standing in a virtual blizzard of snow, ice and freezing temperatures

Bad timing. By the end of her speech she looked like a Snowman(woman)!

Let's take a trip down memory lane and recall how Trump once asked for global warming to "please come back fast", claimed that it was a hoax made up by the Chinese to hurt US exports, and was branded "a clown" after he tweeted: "Brutal and Extended Cold Blast could shatter ALL RECORDS - Whatever happened to Global Warming?"

And, as always when Trump tweets something like this, people took to Twitter to express their embarrassment for their president.

When will he learn?
