The proposal, billed as the Green New Deal, was laughed off the public stage.
The Green New Deal is a profoundly embarrassing and politically damaging proposal for Democrats.
Democrats cried foul, acting as though a free vote on their own climate change resolution somehow constituted a dirty trick against them.
Faced with a day-of debate on their own embarrassing resolution, Democrats spent their floor time trying to blame Republicans for not taking global warming seriously enough.
If Democrats took it seriously, and didn't just view it as a potential source of donations from gullible millenarian millennials, they would not have fallen in line behind this ludicrous unicorns-and-rainbows proposal in the first place.
If Democrats cared about global warming as anything more than a political issue, they would not be wasting time with useless and impractical proposals like this one.
Beyond that, Democrats who fear a warming planet should endorse and legislate toward the long-term expansion of nuclear energy, which safely and effectively freed France from its carbon footprint long ago.
