Matthew Feeney, Ph.D. : Instead, what you see is an argument that the U.S. is not doing enough to drill oil and gas. It needs to free up regulation to do those things, and it needs to stop tracking climate regulations.

Unlike Trump, it basically ignores it. Trump has said it's a hoax. They don't do that.
