Democrats appearing at CNN's marathon 7-hour global warming forum have a plan to solve a changing climate: Ban everything!
Over the course of the television extravaganza, Democrats' leading 2020 presidential candidates floated a variety of proposals to cut Americans' energy use and, ostensibly, to stop the climate from changing.
Among them: Bans on straws, red meat, incandescent lightbulbs, gas-powered cars, nuclear energy, off-shore drilling, fracking, natural gas exports, coal plants, and even "carbon" itself.
Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), asked if she supports banning fracking, said "of course."
"There's no question I'm in favor of banning fracking, so yes. And starting -- and starting with what we can do on day one around public lands, right? And then there has to be legislation, but yes — and this is something I've taken on in California. I have a history of working on this issue. And to your point, we have to just acknowledge that the residual impact of fracking is enormous in terms of the impact on the health and safety of communities — yeah, so thank you."
When she was asked if she'd ban straws, she also said yes: "I think we should, yes. I’m going to be honest."

Save all these sound bites for the general election. It will make for some hard hitting add later on.
I knew this year long Democrat parade of communist morons spotting her nonsense was going to be fun but I really had no idea it was gonna be this much fun!
More popcorn please!
Bump
You'd think they'd take this opportunity and run with it but they're not.
I suspect the MSM doesn't want to draw attention to the absurd claims they made and absurd solutions they proposed.
Just the straw guilt...is comical by itself. I was thinking of starting a tampon-guilt episode that they are endangering the world.
Yeah, no problem. Kill off coal, oil, gas, nuclear, transportation, manufacturing, heavy industry, construction, mining, farming, ranching, etc. We’ll save the planet (LOL), but we’ll have no jobs. Can’t flip burgers—no meat. Can’t take in each others laundry—no electricity, no soap and probably no water without pumps. Hell, there’ll be no clothes to wash. We could all become coders, but who needs code?
We’d also have to kill off the constitution, give up our guns, give up our sovereignty and freedom and submit to the U.N.
Are these people freaking nuts or what?
Go, Trump! Make America Great Again and Keep America Great Always!!
I’d like to see a Carbon Free Democrat Party.
Live like it is 1776.
Giving in to these demands by these self-righteous fools will only invite more demands.
Why no mention of plastic bottles?
Cue the Little House on the Prairie music but then again the left would hate everything about that. I guess they want cave times era.
In terms of probable viewership they may as well broadcast a test pattern. And advertisers? Looking forward to the list of what companies to avoid. Final straw (yes, pun intended) will be the uptick in suicide rates among the weak minded who do watch. Wonder if CNN’s legal counsel has looked at that aspect of a liability issue?
A better idea would be to just outright ban all the communists in our political system. It would mean the end of the UniParty, but especially the RATs.
Carbon bad, let’s ban Nuclear power which once running emits almost almost 0 carbon emissions.
...tampon-guilt episode...

I am so glad I started my unicorn ranch!
Millions of Skittles from their poop and gazillions of cubic meters of gas from their farts!
I am gonna be so rich!
