Biden Repeats Hillary Clinton’s Biggest Campaign Mistake During CNN Climate Town Hall
The Daily Caller ^ | September 5, 2019 | Amber Athey, White House Correspondent

Posted on 09/06/2019 7:17:49 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Democratic presidential candidates Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren offered proposals during Wednesday’s climate change town hall on CNN that mirrored what former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton described as her biggest mistake during her 2016 campaign.

Biden and Warren both attacked coal mining and fossil fuels during the 7-hour long forum, suggesting that eliminating one of the largest sources of energy in the United States would substantially help the environment.

“We’ve got to shut down” all coal-fueled power plants, Biden asserted during his portion of the town hall.

They must figure they already have this won, through theft, misdirection, and disruption.

This has to be the only reason they are piling on all their weird deranged ideas—none of which are electoral winners.

Kids, these people may be stupid but they are not politically stupid when it comes to winning BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.

Do NOT count these people out.

What they're really saying is that we have to have much more expensive energy. If NG is as inexpensive as coal which if it is now it won't be long term, there's still a huge capital cost of closing existing plants and building new ones that have to weave their way through a decade or so of Federal Regulation foot dragging in order to be built.

Make energy and food expensive and you throttle the economy.

Maybe, but I’ve got to think that there are a lot of people who have voted democrat out of habit, family tradition, etc. who might start to think “Eliminate all fossil fuels? Get rid of nuclear? Get rid of meat? Get rid of air travel? Get rid of cars? No new buildings? How are we going to live? These people are nuts!”

And I doubt that President Trump will hesitate a second to remind everyone of what they’ve said.

“They must figure they already have this won, through theft, misdirection, and disruption.”

they’re not that bright. just like 2016, they believe their own fake polls, and are foolishly catering to an extreme leftist sliver of their base because they believe that group is much bigger than it really is due to social media shutting down conservative voices as well as numerous leftist posting bots that are inundating social media with hundreds of thousands of vile, extreme, and ignorant commentary ...

because of all of that, there is now a literal silent majority which is going to express itself in a massive outpouring at the polls, which is going to totally shock the leftist kommie candidates ... Trump is going to win much bigger than in 2016 due to a large number of factors now in his favor, and I believe he will actually win the popular vote as well as a big victory in the electoral vote ...

exactly. i can’t WAIT for the 2020 TV commercials: there’s an unbelievable amount of video material from the debates and CNN “townhalls” with Dems definitively and repeatedly stating all of the above and much, much more.

The ads don’t even need to attack anyone, they just have to show vids of candidates raising their hands to give free medical care for illegal aliens and taking away everything else from us, and then the ad just asks: “Is THAT what you REALLY want for you, your family, and your friends?”

Democrats have got to be some of the dumbest people on the planet.

Historically, the left has always had only two paths to victory:

—clear the field.

—steal votes.

They are fully aware that Sane America hates them and their demented policies. They truly believe that they have an unassailable right to trick us and force their form of government on us.

They’re only as dangerous as we allow them to be.

Talk to anyone who has graduated college in the past 10 or so years. They have been fully brainwashed.

I watched a segment on Laura Ingraham’s show a few nights ago and a scientist said that even if America were to go completely to ZERO carbon emissions right now, it would have virtually no measurable effect on the world's temperature (about .0014 of 1 degree Fahrenheit). These people only care about power and they will grab it by whatever it takes.
