Once someone gets revealed as a liar like that, rational people start assuming everything they say is a lie, unless independent evidence shows otherwise. That's why most denialist leaders get no respect, because they get caught lying so often. In contrast, mainstream scientists have a long record of honesty (cultist rambling to the contrary), so they do get respect.
