All fracked up: Biden's Keystone State breakdown
The Hill ^ | October 25, 2020 | Adam Goodman

Posted on 10/25/2020 6:32:34 AM PDT by mmanager

What the frack was Joe Biden thinking? Or is this what happens when the teleprompters are off, live TV is on, and a pandering politician befuddled by it all riffs — and whiffs?

Thursday night, from Erie to Pittsburgh, Harrisburg to Minersville, Wilkes Barre to Somerset, Pennsylvania voters learned the truth about Joe Biden’s “inconvenient truth.”

He’s now okay with fracking, but clearly not okay with oil and gas. The reactions were faster than Biden’s attempts at cleaning up what he’d stepped in later that night.

Biden has based his campaign on a breathtaking series of lies. A breakdown was inevitable.

I called an old friend of mine that is a boilermaker out of the Pittsburgh local 154. He was on the bus with the local at the Latrobe rally and they are more than pissed. It’s hunting season and they are out mobilizing the vote.

I’m from the ‘Burg area and this is the only game in town.

What the Crack was be thinking? Joe is doped up like Hunter.

Why didn’t the rats pick a stronger candidate?

Thank them for their service and sacrifice. Plenty time left for hunting
Didn’t Joe put his hoof in his mouth lied about boilermakers.

Whatever, Joe. Does he understand this stuff at all? Clearly, No.

That Adderall and Ritalin cocktail is taking its toll.

Did you forget that SloJoe is a coal miner from Scranton Pennsylvania? He worked in the mines since he was four years old, man. His family sat around the table wondering how they were going to pay for them bald tires on the station wagon.

Most of the people who are anti fracing and anti oil and gas don’t even know what we do. They just know those are bad words.

I drive past the Boilermakers 154 Headquarters on Banksville Road.

Great big Trump / Pence 2020 signs!

I used to be union myself, Steelworkers, and like the Boilermakers, I realized that Unions need Companies, just like Companies need labor.

Trump realizes this too.

Certainly true. But I think Biden compounds this by seeing half the words as bad but not all the words. He now says he supports fracking? But opposes oil and gas?

Hey, I love hanging out in bars late at night — I just hate being around people who have been drinking.

The dude wants it both ways. He’s an idiot.

Trump won Penn with 2.97-million votes in 2016. Between the police (active/retired), pro-oil/fracking crowd, and blacks moving over to the GOP....I would suggest it’s a Trump-win with 3.3-million or higher votes this time around.

Under the Biden plan, US oil, natural gas and coal production and use will be totally eliminated for non-military purposes by 2035.

Texas will need to impose a state personal income tax to replace lost hydrocarbon revenue.

Pennsylvania natural gas areas will see nearly all development stop, housing values collapse and jobs gradually disappear.

Pennsylvania will have to cut state health care and educational funding statewide. Pennsylvania welfare rolls will grow.

The Biden plan calls for eliminating natural gas entirely, not merely fracking.

Don’t let Joe minimize the impact if his 2035 Co2 total elimination plan.

They didn't have one. Simple as that.

After all that carbon fuel is gone, what’s going to charge those electric cars?
