> More heat should result in more water vapor, which should result in more rain. I think the reason you're being downvoted is that this is very "first-order" thinking that fails to consider changes to pressure systems, wind patterns, etc that might affect where rain falls not just how much. Even assuming you're right about rainfall increasing with warming, rain falling in the ocean does not stop a drought on land. Meanwhile, most people who have dedicated their careers to studying second and third order effects of increased temperature on the weather seem to think these things are connected. I'm more inclined to agree with them than with you.
