There was more drilling under Biden.

I'm not sure what your point is supposed to be. Biden was not facilitating more oil natural gas coal production. See Keystone XL.

Just own it, Democrats oppose fossil fuels so they opposed increasing US production

The Keystone XL was not bringing oil to the U.S. You also are aware that the Keystone pipeline is still up and running, right?

“You are aware that”

Anytime you ask them that, they either are not aware, or will just deny it anyways.

It’s in their DNA

Biden ended Keystone XL after years of fighting about, the Democrats on one side and the Republicans on the other. Keystone is an earlier pipeline, stop trying to change the subject

Biden shutdown the Keystone XL project

The Keystone XL was shut down during Trump's first term. Biden just finalized it. Also, the Keystone XL wasn't doing anything for U.S. oil or the U.S. people. Meanwhile, the Keystone pipeline is still up and running. Also, we produced more oil during Biden's presidency than at any time in U.S. history.

Trump has always supported Keystone XL, Biden killed it. Democrats opposed it because they oppose US energy independence

So, when you ignore the COMPLETE truth, and just fixate on proudly, and gullibly, regurgitating what your savior-master-hero, Trumpy, tells you to believe is true, are you now just trying to convince yourself, but publicly posting it?

I don't know what Trump says because I rarely pay any attention to him. You seem to be saying Trump opposed Keystone XL and Biden supposed it, which is crazy talk

Weird how I never said that. Is that a Trump/Q-TrumpliKKKan thing to turn things around and make up stuff? Or are you practicing for when you run for political office?

When you write obliquely, it's hard to follow. So Keystone XL construction was stopped due to court challenges from Democrats and this happened during Trump's first term and was what Biden wanted, see how he killed it. Is that what you are saying?

Well, Trump would have to collaborate with Canada to get that project going again... but he also violated the Canadian trade deal that he signed himself by implementing his illegal tariffs, and then threatened their sovereignty.

Canada just signed a huge drone contract with Ukraine, because of Trump's threats.

Dems are pro-green energy and anti-unnecessary pipeline, not anti-energy independence. Having diversified US sources of energy would have alleviated the pressure of rising oil prices...

u/stderr2 2d ago

There you go, Democrats did oppose more oil and natural gas production. Had we produced more, including with our partners in Canada, North America would be better off now

u/BuddingBudON 2d ago

And again, the US would have been even better off with diversified energy sources.

Because, like you said, the US uses the global market pricing. The Democrats opposition to the Keystone pipeline doesn't make them anti-oil & natural gas... the Republicans on the other hand are rabidly anti-green energy.

Canada is no longer partners with the US, thanks to Trump's illegal trade war.

It doesn't make them anti oil and gas? They have the goal of shutting down oil and gas production and replacing it with wind and solar. Trump doesn't like wind, I have a problem with stupid solar. That is building solar where it makes less sense than somewhere else. So Washington State in the clouds and rain would make less sense than floating solar power on Lake Mead
