TAMPA, FLORIDA: Conservative host Benny Johnson recently shared a video clip featuring former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton discussing deaths "related to climate."

Johnson claimed that Clinton was “worried” about the “Climate Change body count” in this clip.

However, following Johnson's tweet, the internet flooded his X (formerly known as Twitter) account with numerous comments, with the majority expressing disagreement with Clinton's stance.

On X, conservative host Benny Johnson wrote, “Hillary Clinton is worried about the Climate Change body count: ‘We're seeing and beginning to pay attention and to count and record the deaths that are related to climate.’”



 

In the clip, Clinton said, “We're seeing and beginning to pay attention and to count and record the deaths that are related to climate, and by far the biggest killer is extreme heat.”

She added, “And even in Europe last summer, which has the ability to count and figure out what happened, they recorded 61000 deaths because of the heat in Europe.”

Clinton also said, “We don’t have that kind of number yet from Africa, Asia, Latin America, but we know and estimate that we probably could measure about 500000 deaths, and the majority of those are women and girls, and particularly pregnant women.”

Internet responds to Hillary Clinton’s remark on climate change

After Benny Johnson shared the aforementioned clip about Hillary Clinton being “worried” about the “climate change body count,” the internet was quick to respond as over 1000s of responses poured in on the social media platform.

One user wrote, “Now that so many people are dying from the Covid vax they are wanting to blame the deaths on ‘Climate Change,’” and another wrote, “‘Climate’ is a strange way to spell ‘Covid Vax.’”



 



 

“The girl who cried wolf!” wrote one user, and another said, “It must be really sad to be so irrelevant.”



 



 

People on the social media platform continued to weigh in on Clinton’s statement shared by Johnson as one user wrote, “Ladies and gentlemen I hereby present to you Satan's daughter of the 21st century,” and another wrote, “Nobody cares. There’s no way to attribute anything to climate change.”
