I’ve listened to Trump’s response in regards to ethanol. Basically he’s pro-American industry. Anything to screw OPEC who are ripping Americans off

We have no shortage of oil. There’s a glut if you hadn’t notice... In fact our own oil producers could use more demand right now. Our own oil is much cheaper than ethanol and contains significantly more energy per gallon. Everyone mileage would go and it would cost less and none of it would have anything to do with OPEC.

Trump is supporting crony capitalists against Americans, who PAY HIGHER GAS PRICES to support these companies through ethanol quotas. Ethanol also damages engines.

Fracking "screws" OPEC and doesn't cost taxpayers a dime.

Aside from Cruz, Trump agrees with all the other candidates in the race, and every candidate who has come before, who have supported ethanol subsidies to buy votes in Iowa.

We don't need ethanol subsidies to screw OPEC.
