Biden has caused at least 8 years of set back for the country.

When politicians tell you they want to destroy you, always believe them.
“If you are this stupid...”
There is way too much stupid in this country.
Just another reason to be a prepper. Government run by democrats will be used to hurt you.

people bought vehicles, houses, sent kids to college, FJB...
Private contract vs federal permits. The contract was not doubt contingent on the parties getting and keeping the requisite permits. Brandon cancelled the permits which, in turn, caused the contract to be terminated by the parties.
Damn you pipefitters! Damn you all to hell! — Joe Biden
Trump should have worded the contract in such a way that a future president couldn’t void it.
Working on the Bakken from 2010 to 2018 i saw a lot of changes.
Obama killed the government lease oil fields and everything shifted to the Bakken.
The water haulers and oil tankers were making big time dollars,
The oil haulers had lots of problems getting unloaded because the existing pipelines were running full all the time and there were always a ton of trucks waiting to unload.
The railroads had some depots but they were few and far between.
By 2018 there were railroad depots every where and Warren Buffetts bought and paid for president gave him his money in spades
Yes two on the most dangerous men in America
