If there is a microphone or better yet a camera around, Trump will say anything to get attention.

He seems to be very timid about saying drill baby drill.

He seems to be very timid about saying lowering the gasoline tax.

I think he mentioned drilling once but only when asked. Can’t find a link though.

I really don’t know why he’d be opposed, or perhaps he’s just not focused on it.

Yeah, no “words from Trump about fecking drilling here in the US, and lowering the fecking gas tax”. ;^)

“He seems to be very timid about saying drill baby drill.”

I have to agree with you.

The fact is that we should aggressively be tapping our own energy to increase supply AND to buy from ourselves, thereby keeping the money here.

Similarly, I believe we should work to create a favorable economic, regulatory, and legal climate HERE so business will locate here and hire Americans. Simply bashing other countries might feel good, but doesn't improve our stature one bit.

Though I’m not endorsing anyone at this point, it has to be said that even just a very quick youtube search brings up multiple clips of Trump very strongly advocating oil drilling in the U.S.:
