Ah, the Lone Star state...
Gaaad blessum'
Texas have based their entire economy around oil production. It dictates how they teach, how they live, and who they vote for.
Make no mistake, Most Texans see Democrats in power as a direct threat to their well being. Texans have fought Solar Energy, fought Electric Cars, Fought Thermal, Wind and all sources of power that can be generated WITHOUT POLLUTING OUR AIR!!!
Some Texans don't give a "Fickled Feather" who dies because of their oil, or how many record breaking wildfires and hurricanes and droughts occur because of that "Hoax" Global Climate Destruction.
Oh, here's a Texan now... Jimmy Ray Frack Bone... Who's been drillin' pipes into the ground all his life... Married a good Christian girl who spends Sunday's making cakes for their church... She and Billy Ray dislike Liberals. They are "Plum pissed off" Liberal "Socialists" are telling them they should not be Fracking...
"Yiipee Kayay!" Jimmy Ray exclaims every time he gets a bonus for Fracking more oil than the week before.
So what, some of the children in the Frack Bone's neighborhood are dying of cancer! That's all just a necessary cost of Fracking... says the Bones.
FUN FACTS ABOUT FRACKING
********************************************
Fracking is the process of mixing chemicals with water, injecting that toxic "cocktail" into the ground to squeeze the last ounce of oil from depleting reserves. Fracking can release dangerous petroleum hydrocarbons, including benzene and xylene. It also increases ground-level ozone levels, raising people's risk of asthma and other respiratory illnesses. ... Fracking fluid contaminates streams and rivers. Birds are poisoned by chemicals in wastewater ponds. In extreme cases Farmers have reported not only losing their animals and crops but have seen their holding ponds ignite when someone lights a match from combustible gases, a bi-product of Fracking.

But instead of talking about the facts or offering a plan to address it, Pence portrayed Trump's opponent former Vice President Joe Biden’s climate stance as a radical ploy that would "destroy the economy".
Immediately after the 2020 vice presidential debate Donald Trump tweeted this about Joe Bidens pick for his vice president Democrat Kamala Harris:
“This monster, she says no, no there won't be fracking,”
Kamala Harris actually said this:
“I will repeat, and the American people know, that Joe Biden will not ban fracking,”
Harris also referred to the energy plan Biden has laid out phasing out polluting industries gradually, intelligently over decades and replacing dirty, destructive, dangerous energy sources with clean technologies. All good things!!!
