Trump, on climate change:

"The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive."

"The whole climate crisis is not only Fake News, it’s Fake Science. There is no climate crisis, there’s weather and climate all around the world, and in fact carbon dioxide is the main building block of all life."

"Obama's talking about all of this with the global warming and … a lot of it's a hoax. It's a hoax. I mean, it's a money-making industry, okay? It's a hoax, a lot of it."

I can do this with any given Republican who's been in a leadership position.

I won't, though, because you're clearly dissembling and not engaging in good faith.

Maybe I miss something here, but:

Someone replied to "The public position of the Republican Party is that climate change is a myth" with a link to their web platform stating something different.

I think it's not really fair to counter that by quoting Trump and closing with the assumption of bad faith.

All the statement says is that climate change is not an issue, and that any discussion of it must be guided by data: there is no acknowledgment of the reality of climate change.

On the other hand, all of the Republican leadership cast doubt on it. And as a result the large majority of Republican voters reject the idea of anthropogenic climate change.

I assure you that what comes out of Trumps mouth represents the average Republican voter far better than some policy statement on a webpage.
