I do not support Trump and do not condone any illegal thing he has done, at all! But I do not give a damn about anything the left has on him when they will do and have done nothing about the horrendous corruption on their own side of the aisle for decades. Their corruption is why/how we got Trump in the first place.

The main problem is that all of the worst and most evil Democrats in the country live in Washington DC.

Gavin is in California - but coming to DC very very soon.

Love his hair!

What youтАЩre really going to love, although you wonтАЩt be allowed to discuss it except in private, is his electrical grid.

I think Texas can give it a run for its money..

Who's the Governor there again?

Greg Abbott is the governor of Texas which has pursued wind and solar more aggressively than any other state.

Now while Abbott is not aiming to reduce energy consumption by force, his stateтАЩs policy choices almost hurt your argument worse than Gavin NewsomтАЩs stated goals.

Agreed that where Abbott's getting his energy is laudable. But his grid delivery system failures in the last five to ten years rival California's..

Abbott didn't take into account all the Californians moving to Texas creating additional load on the grid.

ItтАЩs laudable if you have the mind of a 12-year-old girl and view windmills and solar panels as perpetual motion machines.

DonтАЩt worry, we will keep pursuing this jackass fantasy and you will get your holocaust of the poor.

Oh, I get it. Texas really shouldn't be going for renewable power even though the sun shines there for over 65% of the year and is also one of the windiest states of the Union.

Then again, it sometimes takes the mind of a twelve year old to figure that out.

Yes. The hypothetically perfect conditions for this utopian fantasy exist in Texas and it still fails miserably. Good counterargument.

The Chinese solar panels, which require slavery and strip mining for materials that do not exist in quantities sufficient to even come close to completing this psychotic project, last for 7 years and then have to be buried because they are hazardous.

Luckily, the parts of the Green New Deal smuggled into the IRA are currently buying out all of the conventional power plants and dismantling them so there is no turning back and there will be no backup energy for emergencies or whatever.

So lets not develop the technology on solar power and wind and let all that constant available power go to waste? Is it imperfect now? - of course it is. But it can be made better and will - since the opportunity is too large to ignore.

Do we need back up power? Yes. I think it should be nuclear. But thats just an opinion.

Politicians are not interested in exposing corruption in their own ranks and only expose limited amounts of corruption in the other parties ranks, because they're all corrupt. Look at their net worth and you can see just how corrupt they are.
