You need to get a better understanding of the energy issues. Set your alarm, wake up earlier, and try to gain some useful insight and improve your knowledge. Let me know if there's anything else you are confused about. I know that (It's written in the linked article, BTW). You are deflecting. You wrote: "Trump embraces ‘dictator’ moniker by promising to enforce border laws and promote energy independence both of which Biden has neglected to do " I proved you wrong by showing that energy independence (defined by the difference between imports and exports*) has been significantly improved under Biden. (* the same definition used previously by Trump when he bragged about it) Coming back to the issue raised in your reply, did Trump promise to subsidize refineries so that they can change their refining equipment? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to be difficult for you to grasp that the reason why the U.S. doesn't produces much heavy crude oil (which is of lower quality BTW) is that it is not frequently found on its territory. Your proposal doesn't make sense from an economic point of view. What makes sense is to drill when it is profitable to do so, use or export what is found, and import what cannot be easily found.

Catching on yet? Point 1. The reserve was established at a time the U.S. wasn't producing much oil. The same level is not necessary now, due to the relatively low quantity of oil imported. Point 2. I never claimed it was not the case. My claim was, when using the difference between import and exports as an indicator, energy independence has increased.

Hunter is a dirt-bag crack head loser, at least Kushner and the Trump clan made millions using their God given brains and conducted constructive enterprising activities, something the Bidens thru their ineptness failed to achieve and instead chose the great grift. Kushner had a hand in kick-starting peace in the ME, the only "piece" Hunter got was a two legged hooker and some crack cocaine and now he's an accused felony tax cheat, doing his level best to add to the impressive Biden legacy. I'm sure this will help at polls, but for Trump and serve to just tighten the noose on Joe especially if the feds add a FARA violation & indictment on HB. What's your guess for when Biden is shown the door and ordered to drop out? 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason that Trump has a chance to be a dictator is that he has a large following of low information acolytes. For example, Trump claims that "foreign interference " helped steal the 2020 election. But, virtually all intelligence services officials serving under Trump deny there was any significant foreign interference. So, it's Trump vs a plethora of his officials.

Well let's start with influence peddling and please remember hunter has never been in office are you telling me timing of Jared and ivanka sweet deals with Saudi Arabia and China were purely coincidental. The sanctions on Qatar at the behest of Saudi Arabia was a policy USA would normally be interested in? Regarding all the court cases many of which he has already been found GUILTY nothing can happen whilst he was in office. Your hero has played the judicial system his whole life with delay delay delay stiffing so many contractors along the way. It's a bit rich to complain about his treatment by the DOJ he was the worst at trying to use the doj .Bill Barr who distorted much for him says he is in deep <deleted> over his top secret boxes . I could go on but I'm wasting my time on you as you seem like the type of person Jordan klepper would be interviewing at rump rallies. Vindictive and tunnel vision when you talk about Hunter it's well documented he was an addict and went off the rails. Young Donald is not exactly adverse to drugs himself but I don't care and obviously in your blinkered vision neither do you 😉 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
