Seeking to stop the political bleeding, Joseph R. Biden struck out on the campaign trail Saturday in Pennsylvania, pushing back against President Trump’s charge that he wants to bring the hammer down on the oil and gas industry in the state by banning fracking.
“Look let me be clear,” Mr. Biden said at a rally in Bucks County “I am not banning fracking in Pennsylvania or anywhere else.”
Mr. Biden’s stance on the oil and gas industry is getting extra attention in the wake of the final presidential debate. Mr. Trump said Mr. Biden had delivered a mixed message on fracking over the course of the 2020 race, suggesting he was trying to hide his true position from voters.
During the exchanges, Mr. Trump pounced on Mr. Biden after the Democrat said he would “transition” the nation away from fossil fuels and toward a clean energy economy. Mr. Trump said Mr. Biden has been against fracking.
“I have never said I oppose fracking,” Mr. Biden said.
Mr. Trump countered, “You said it on tape.”
Indeed, independent fact checkers say Mr. Biden falsely claimed he never said he opposed fracking, pointing out to past comments in which he said he would make sure it is “eliminated” and that he opposed “new fracking.”

My brother said nice handle for FR. DeplorableChumps...
I am! Deplorable Chump who voted for Trump here!
Biden’s stance on the oil and gas industry is making some states jittery.
Trump asserted Biden delivers a mixed message on fracking over the course
of the 2020 race, suggesting he was trying to dupe voters WRT his true position.
During the debate, Trump pounced on Biden after the Democrat said he would “transition”
the nation away from fossil fuels......toward a AOC type Green energy economy.
“I have never said I oppose fracking,” Mr. Biden said.
Mr. Trump countered, “You said it on tape”......and promptly put the tape of Biden on his web site .....
.......AFTER Biden stupidly dared Trump to post it.
Lying now. Harris too. Not a peep out of her lately. She still running?
WARRIORS! -— great movie... especially that scene...
Yes he did. This will be a a new Tee shirt by today!
I think the chumps is a nice addition to deplorables.
How about “deplorable chumps dog face pony soldiers”.
Notice that Joe campaigns almost exclusively in PA? What, he’s only interested in one state? Because it’s a home state? Or because he can’t get too far from the basement in next-door Delaware?
They have Facebook now.
“This isn’t flip-flopping. It’s out and out lying.”
I’ll wager he’s word-playing, like “I haven’t taken a penny from China.”
My guess: He’ll not ban the actual fracking, but he’ll ban many necessities required to fracture and/or make the permitting take forever.
That sure is the way it would appear... for some reason...
Deplorable white supremacist rube chump henchmen Trump supporters it is, then.
This from the party that says they champion tolerance, diversity, inclusion, multiculturalism and love.
But I will regulate and tax the hell out of fracking that they will not make it.
Biden has two masters and they want socialism and control.
At least one vote is going to Trump per Fox News for Biden’s use of “chumps”
Was he lying before or is he lying now about fracking?
I’ve always taught my children and grandchildren “the problem of being a liar and a practical joker is that no one will believe a word you say, and you’re always looking for trip-wires!”
“””WARRIORS! -— great movie... especially that scene...”””
I have it in my collection. I believe I will put it on this afternoon while working in the shop.
Amazing, ain’t it? LOL Biden sounds and looks like a hollering old scarecrow. And it is scary to think this old criminal could be POTUS.
No, this nitwit isn’t “banning” fracking...the criminal oaf will regulate it out of existence through fines, regulations and directives. Lair...liar...pants on fire!
