Trump tells his rally that oil companies are doing great and their profits are at an all-time high. Meanwhile, the very people cheering him on are getting hammered by high gas prices and aren't benefiting one bit from those record profits. And somehow, they remain blind to the contradiction. They cheer while corporations prosper at their expense, apparently unable to recognize that the policies they support are hurting their own pocketbooks.
Name one, just one policy put forth by a democrat in the last 25 years that was designed to reduce gasoline prices.
Green Energy. (Renewable) Electric vehicles. Both would reduce our dependence on carbon fuels and drive down gas prices.
The most disturbing thing is that after 9/11, as a nation, we should have been ALL IN on reducing Middle East oil imports and consumption.

You can't be that stupid. But maybe you can.
What powers electrical generation?
Tell us how Europe's fixation with Green policies has reduced their fuel costs.
Tell us why China's use of hydrocarbons is rising year over year.
Green policies are simply a way for stupid people to feel morally superior.
FYI……the growth of global energy consumption insures that every potential energy source will be utilized to its maximum potential. Math is brutal on the fantasies of the Left.
You asked for policies that they put forward. Not quality assessments of how they would do. The Dems believe it would work and they put it forward. You don't have to agree. Trump is doing aspects of the Green New Deal why do you think Musk is so involved...
You want to get into stupid policies? Maybe - Tariffing the world, going to War with Iran... There are no shortage of stupid ideas with this administration, as well.
As always your reading comprehension is poor. I asked nothing. I did opine on the stupidity of his answer to someone else's question.
And stop being obtuse. No one asks about policies simply to take a survey upon whether any were offered. That question (at least to any normal person) is an inquiry into workable policy.
And deflecting onto other topics is the hallmark of not having a substantive response.
Demand for electricity is double the growth in demand for total energy and exceeds growth in GDP by about 1/3.
Renewables are already the largest energy supplier by a large margin. Any person with a minimum of education understands that energy faces a demand bubble not a supply source issue. And China is the epicenter of that bubble despite sourcing energy (at a much higher percentage) from renewables than Europe or North America.
Your need to infuse your hatred of Trump into every conversation even at the expense of making blatantly false and stupid comments as the jumping off point makes folks question your sanity. Try some bran.
You are so full of *****.. The question was not about the workability of the Green New Deal. It was a out putting forward policies to lower gas prices. So, yes in an election year people do survey if they put out policies.
What a f-ing joke, you were discussing the inner workings of the Green New Deal! You got caught being wrong and went personal. Again...
^^^^^ What happens when the dentist drills without anesthesia........
Keep cheering and voting like they want you to.
And 98% of all democrats.
Yeah, them too.
Only solution is vote policies, not Party. Mixed Government based on what they believe and said they would do. I would vote for Massie(R) and Kelly (D). Could give a rats ass what Party.
So far only exception for me is MAGA Judges. I want them gone...
my argument for a long time. Right now it seems to me that Democrats align more closely to the policies I want. However, having said that text by partisan work for infrastructure for Medicare for tax reform for immigration, reform, etc..
I literally voted for a mix about equal GOP and Dem based on their positions. If Judges were put in by Jeb Bush, I voted to keep them. Trump, out. I am done with Party politics.
Yeah, because liberal judges have done such a great job. Lol.
But seriously, if you're voting for both a liberal Democrat and a conservative Republican, what exactly do you stand for politically? Their positions on taxes, spending, immigration, the courts, and the role of government are fundamentally different. I'm all for voting for the person over the party, but at some point, your votes should reflect some consistent political principles. How do you reconcile supporting two candidates with such opposing views?
Who said I voted for liberal judges? That is a problem, if not MAGA than liberal. What they actually believe and do means nothing.
Consistent political principles- the trap...
Seriously, let's delve into that. Look at your ballot. Your logic would hold up if we were voting for all of them for one office. If it was all Congress, all same roles, same rules, same responsibilities a constant political principle would work. But, our elections and ballots are not. They range from Federal - Senator to Local School Board to retaining Judges.
Do you really want the same consistent political principle for every position??? Local politics are very different than National. A Supreme Court Judge has different responsibilities than a State Judge. Do I want Alito passing judgement on me if I end up in Court? That is much different than do I want him interpreting the Constitution. (I know we don't elect Supreme Court Justices, just an illustration of a point).
So, I really do not understand how you can just take one constant political philosophy and apply it to the whole range of elected positions Federal, State, Judicial and Local.
Believe it or not, the people on that ballot that will impact your life the most is the County Commissioner or City Council member. The least - Federal Senator. The kid's ****** stuff being thrown out, how many of us are really going to be impacted? Sales tax, determined by County? Or Local Option Gas Tax, set by the County? Think about it.
Who is really going to impact your life? That is how I vote.
