Canceling a proposed pipeline that wasn't set to be completed for years knee capped our energy sector? How weak do you think the USA is and how strong do you think Biden is?

Honestly if that's all it takes to bring the USA down then why bother complaining and just accept that the USA is weak? GG no RE

How ignorant to think that’s what I’m talking about. Try strict regulations and sweeping changes to gas and oil policies by executive order. Democrats the definition of ignorance.

Such as?

Trump wasn't blamed for stimulus checks, and Biden isn't being blamed either.

Voters blame Biden for the economic fall-out of Covid-19. It's intuitive, Democrats are the pro-lockdown party. Biden is also being blamed for his response to inflation. Voters are concerned about rising prices, and Biden's response has been to downplay inflation fears and advocate $4-5 trillion in net new spending (BBB). Voters are unimpressed. The Democratic moderates have the right of it. Biden was elected to be "normal", and his administration is governing far to the left of the American center. His priorities reflect the priorities of the wealthy coastal whites who now dominate the Democratic party. Hispanic support is collapsing. The rustbelt is gone. Florida and Ohio are not coming back into play, and Democrats are losing support in the suburbs that is critical to 2022 and beyond. Stelter and the Democratic media corps fundamentally misunderstand what's going on.

Oil companies currently have something like an Oklahoma sized amount of already leased land that is unused. Enough to last them decades. Oil companies want to maximize the land they have claim to because it's better for their private profits, that's why they want to lock in claims on public land at the expense of you and every other American citizen. You've been sold a lie by the right.

You're ridiculous. The BBB is massively popular even in the states of the people holding up the bill (Manchin and Sinema). Democratic "moderates" are right wing corporatist goons actively undermining the will of the electorate. This is not hyperbole in the slightest. In Manchin's case it's because his family business directly benefits from it, and in Sinema's case she's gotten over a million dollars from pharma for the direct purpose of killing drug price negotiation. Republicans are even talking about explicitly not running against them because of how in-line with their politics Manchin and Sinema have been.

His priorities are directly in line with the American center and you are being a hack.

What if I told you things can have multiple factors? Crypto mining is responsible for the GPU shortages, but there's more to silicon than GPUs. Companies like Microsoft, Zoom, etc. were responsible for absolutely huge amounts of silicon in the past two years as they added ridiculous amounts of server capacity to facilitate their work from home software. It was also impossible to find new CPUs for a long time last year because of people upgrading their home computers.

Says the one that’s living a lie.
