President vowed to crush traditional energyWhile the Biden administration continues to insist the record high prices at the gas pump are largely due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, a video montage of the president's vows during the 2020 campaign to crush the industry that provides the vast majority of energy, along with his actions on his first day in office, suggest there are other factors in play.
In a July 2019 primary debate with his Democratic Party opponents hosted by CNN, Biden was asked, "Would there be any place for fossil fuels, including coal and fracking, in a Biden administration?"
"No," he replied. "We would work it out. We would make sure it’s eliminated."
In the CNN debate, Biden stated emphatically: "No more drilling on federal lands. No more drilling, including offshore. No ability for the oil industry to continue to drill. Period."
In conversations with individual voters on the campaign trail, he promised to "end fossil fuels" and stop fracking and new pipelines.
