- We’ve never backed a presidential candidate in our 175-year history—until now
–
Trump is a very unusual candidate in the extent to which he rejects science and lies about public health issues. Some presidents have been bad, but Trump is abysmal in this respect. I don't think it's the polarization as much as Donald Trump in particular. Of course, he is a product of the polarization.

It's simply a reflection of urgent scientific concern at an institutional level in the U.S. It's pretty absurd to me that anyone could read this headline/story and think something like "stupid scientists, so political, just shutup". Scientists have been shut up. It's time to speak out.
