I really don’t care what your political views are.  Personally, I would classify myself as a center right Republican if I had to put a label on it.  We need more fiscal responsibility than either part

Funny thing  is, I am a speech therapist, and what Biden has overcome as a stutterer is nothing short of heroic. It may present as bumbling or "dumb" but his strategies to see through dyslfluecies is

That was not a great section for Joe.  And it will do some damage. But this election runs through suburban women, and I doubt that will mean shit to them now, and definitely not in two weeks. 
 

also, this is a Texas board full of o&g guys. It’s be like a UMaine board talking lobster regulations.

I don't think so. I can tell you from personal experience that there are very few votes for Biden in the oil industry and the industries in its orbit in Texas. The people who will parrot this line that Biden is going to kill the oil industry already thought the Democrats were going to kill the oil business. They'll beat the drum hard on it, but the reality is that Biden isn't losing any ground over oil comments. That ground wasn't his to begin with.

The point both of us made was no need to provide the sound bite. It is not about getting votes it is about not giving the other side energy to come out and vote.

Honestly what are the odds Biden could win Texas?  I think that’s the only state this could impact.  But it seems Trump is gonna take Texas either way.

Very low but some polls have it close so people got happy. Biden was never winning Texas. We're still a cycle or 2 away from that.

Oil and gas people are the same as cops, private, prison, and big pharma folks.  They vote overwhelmingly republican. I doubt it hurts bidej too much because he was losing nearly all of those voters anyway

I work in O&G and I voted Biden. I also work for the number one renewable energy company in the world. Sounds conflicting, but it’s true.

Here is why everyone are cucks

People are freaking out about Biden saying we need to transition to Renewables 

and ignoring Trump saying immigrants are idiots who follow the rules 

or Trump melting down over Wall Street, Facui, Children in Cages 

This, so much this.

Really? Outside of CA?

Think of the impact for the auto industry. They don’t want to waste money making 1 set of cars for CA and then making another for rest... and CA for better, for worse... can throw their weight around and help influence this type of policy more broadly.

On the oil bite...just unneccessary. I know plenty of folks that were looking for a reason to vote for Trump

I’m sure Biden cleans that up to be clear he was talking about subsidies.  However those folks you are referring to...they were already voting for Trump.

I didn’t watch, but for all of you saying that it was a good night for trump when I just know he didn’t answer any of the questions specifically and explicitly shows you how fucked up this is that trump gets away with having a “good night” when his good night would have been an automatic disqualification for anyone else.  

Stop giving this nigga a pass.

Some of y'all are acting like Biden just fumbled Texas at the goalline with that oil subsidy remark.  It's more like 3rd and Orlando from his own 15 with Texas.  Don't get your hopes up.

Not saying it moves the needle overall...but I indeed know lots of folks at IOCs who if they havent voted will think about their jobs with Brent at $40 and a slow recovery.

I just don’t know, seems far fetched for 2035 (I believe the target today).

If precedent is any indication, small engine manufacturers are already making two versions of engines...regular and CA versions.
