No, "Clueless " Chuck is not clueless. "Clueless" Chuck knows exactly what he is doing. What he is saying. And why he is doing it. You probably don't know, but he does.

"Clueless" Chuck is evil. Not stupid. It is the sole aim and goal of "Clueless" Chuck to totally and completely destroy the Constitutional Republic of the United States of America and its Representative form of Government. Along with its Capitalistic Economic System of carrying on business and trade. And Replace Its Government with a Communists System of Governing and a Socialists Financial System.

"Clueless" Chucks every movement is working to that goal. His every movement is working to accomplishing that goal. All of his servants are working to advance that goal. They are all very evil. Not stupid. They are more intelligent than the sheep. Because they know what thy are doing and why they are doing it. And the sheep, as they are being herded to the slaughter believe that they are merely "Clueless". Of Course, the sheep still believe that we Are still Governed by the Constitution after the Democrat Party aided and abetted by the Republican Party openly and in broad daylight, performed a coup and stole the 2020 election in broad daylight.

Here are my two simple questions.
1. How are lower income people going to afford an electric vehicle? They are more expensive, that is a fact, including used ones.
2. How are people that live in apartments going to charge their government mandated EVs? Installing one per apartment is financially impossible.

Let’s become dependent on China for our car batteries... and medicine, and computer chips... I’m sure that’ll work out well... Well, for Hunter and other traitors selling us out to China and other enemies.

Hey you goons in 'intelligence' and the 'military'... selling our our country to our enemies is NOTHING compared to some powerless white guy using the "N" word.

So you liberals, when your car won't run, and your mom can't get high blood pressure medicine and American factories won't run, or water purification plants for a lack of 'chips' --- remember, 12 'white supremacists' were found in Mississippi and New York so it was all worth it.

It's hard to understand the depth of 'stupid' when dealing with white liberal 'elites' and their pets.

But will you still have it in 2040?

There will be no gasoline to fuel it..................

They will unless the technology improves by a exponential factor of 1000 or more:

Driving range of 400 miles on a charge, at 70 mph.
Recharge stations at every corner store or parking space.
Recharge time of 10 minutes or less.
Inexpensive batteries that never wear out or last at least 150k+ miles.

One thing they never talk about is that petroleum products will still be necessary even for an all electric car.

Oil and grease for bearings, shocks, rubber parts, tires and seals..................

I suppose those 2040 models will all run on fairy dust, because there isn’t going to be enough electricity to keep them charged if they run on batteries.

Actually, that is what the solid state battery is supposed to do. Double the range. Half or less time to charge. Not lose power in lower temperatures. last for 300,000 miles or more.

Why are train locomotives diesel electric? The torque from an electric motor is much better than an internal combustion engine can produce.

So, I could see bulldozers, skid steers, excavators, farm tractors, compact tractors, lawn tractors, loaders or any other construction equipment that benefits from a higher torque power plant go to electric motors powered by solid state batteries.

Yes, all these vehicles will still have tires, and hundreds of plastic parts made from petroleum distillates

19 years from now....

The average age of an automobile in the US is 11.9 years now, and where is all that electricity going to come from? (The power grid is failing regularly, and there are no more nukes being built.)

(Yeah, right Chucky.)

A recent study found that China's greenhouse gas emissions exceed emissions from the U.S. and other developed countries combined.
Fisker Finds A Friend: Apple car collaboration could be incoming | May 17, 2021
The manufacturing company that has been making your iPhone for over a decade is in line to make your car too.

Foxconn, the world’s largest contract electronics manufacturer signed a deal with Fisker to begin making electronic vehicles in 2023.

The exact location of the new U.S plant has yet to be announced, but Fisker Chief Executive Henrik Fisker said four states are under consideration, including Foxconn’s plant site in Wisconsin.

Young-way Liu, Foxconn Technology Group Chairman says that because of Foxconn’s experience with shorter product cycles and overall production speed they will succeed in the auto industry, and may even influence other manufacturers.

“The collaboration between our firms means that it will only take 24 months to produce the next Fisker vehicle from research and development to production, reducing half of the traditional time required to bring a new vehicle to market,” said Liu.

While the vehicle type has not yet been identified, Fisker said the five-passenger vehicle might be described by some as a crossover.

Foxconn, Apple’s largest supplier, entering the automotive industry could make it easier for Apple to enter the market.

The announcement of this partnership came after Fisker made public its deal with Canadian auto supplier Magna. Magna, an automotive supplier based out of Aurora Ontario, will be manufacturing the new Ocean SUV beginning in late 2022.

Fisker said that the Foxconn deal will not affect the Magna deal.

The final production version of the Ocean SUV will be presented at the Los Angeles auto show this November.

Golly, Chucky, "CLEAN" just runs in Clan Schumer, doesn't it? An example of this clasic and,I'd add, CLASSY Schumer family trait is this "comedy" performance by your niece, Amy. BRAVO!!

The whole GLOBAL WARMING thing, like COVID, is a CONTROL SCHEME. Sadly, most of those you'll meet today are believers.

When cars began to replace horse-drawn carriages in cities, people thought it would mean cleaner air. Horse droppings got chopped up by wheels and the bits got into the air.

I asked my father once if there were still a lot of horse-drawn carriages on the streets when he was young. He said yes, and that people would take the horse droppings and put them in their gardens for fertilizer.

Horse elimination (manure and urine on your shoes, feeding, housing) was the newfangled automobile’s biggest selling point.

“The goal of that plan is that by 2040, all vehicles should be clean. All vehicles on the road should be clean.”


Well, Chuckie, you’re going to have no support whatsoever from me - quite the opposite.

I am hoping to start my dream project in a couple of years, which is buying a 1969 Pontiac GTO and doing a restomod on it. The engine won’t be a 400 cubic inch V-8 like the car originally came with...nope, it is going to be at least 480 cubic inches of Ram Air V goodness, fed with dual quad carbs. Unless I’m dead by 2040, that car WILL be on the road, and it will guzzle premium gasoline by the tanker truck.

So...PHUCK CHUCK!!!
