Texas is the only state that might matter in and that was the long shot dream get anyway. There's only about 150K oil workers in the US now I believe. Is there a swing state in the country besides Texas that probably employs a lot of them? Probably not.

Man there might be 150k oil workers in a couple block radius here alone.

And again, I don't know what people thought Biden or any lefty means when we say carbon neutral by ______. That means oil going bye bye lol

going carbon neutral by 2050 means literally nothing to most people. 

saying I will get rid of the oil industry is common people talk and he knew he farged up the second he said yes.

and lol at 150k oil workers - just because you're not down in the mines does not mean your whole life doesn't depend on it.

ice grillin you

i dont know the exact number but the the oil and gas industry makes up something like 5-10% of all us jobs...its monstrous and will never go away....it would be like saying the military will be gone by 2050...obviously the military isnt going anywhere  because its national defense but as a job creator thats how entrenched oil and gas is
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

I just don't see it mattering much. Texas might have a higher chance of staying red now but white working class people in the Midwest and suburban women and retired seniors not wanting to die from covid give no shteins about the oil industry. Ending subsidies for the oil industry is a popular stance and most people who would ever think of voting for Biden already know the shift away from oil has already begun.

Natural gas is different and he's tip toeing a lot around that for demographic reasons but even fracking is underwater in PA now according to recent polls.

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

biden won every poll anyway...viewership was down for the debate. he needed a game changer like hillarys email investigation blasted by the nytimes and didnt come close to getting one.

at best what this did was get some republicans who were maaaaaaaybe teetering to come back home. not going to be enough to save trump but could save lady g or j's boy cornyn. but lets be real those people were never going to leave the plantation anyway.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Btw the oil comment was one of the top news stories on the local abc channel here.

However they pointed out how the city is already deep into renewables. Not sure the mouthbreathers can get back the initial comment and look deeper though

you have no idea

this polling is entirely different than 2016...there are like half the amount of undecided and the district level polling that was signaling trouble in 16 is signaling massacre now

if you want to be shook or live in fear or whatever i cant help you, i just follow the facts.

Not that I want to see him get re-elected but if he did and that happened his flip to the left would be funny to watch bc his base would lose their shtein
