I wish Trump would answer the green new deal nonsense by pointing out how many politicians and big donors have gotten rich off of it. Its the big scam.

The rest of us pay higher electricity prices, gas prices, and taxes to subsidize this nonsense and the swamp gets rich.

And a second later he said the New Green Deal will pay for itself.

Yes it does: “Biden believes the Green New Deal is a crucial framework for meeting the climate challenges we face. . .”

Joe Biden is embracing the framework of the Green New Deal in his bid for the White House, calling on the United States to eliminate climate-warming emissions by no later than the middle of the century while creating millions of new jobs and rallying the rest of the world to forestall dangerous rising temperatures. . .Biden released a 22-page climate plan Tuesday that appears at least in part aimed at blunting the criticisms of environmentalists and others on the left who have argued Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign is out of step with the current Democratic Party. . .To that end, Biden’s climate plan adopts the rhetoric — and at times, many of the actual policy proposals — of the Green New Deal resolution put forward this year by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.), which calls on the nation to eliminate its carbon footprint by 2030. . .: Joe Biden embraces Green New Deal as he releases climate plan (Washington Post, 06/04/2019)

On Tuesday, Joe Biden did something unprecedented for a Democratic candidate assured of nomination: he moved left. In a speech delivered from Wilmington in his home state of Delaware, Biden unveiled the most ambitious clean energy and environmental justice plans ever proposed by the nominee of a major American political party. The plans, which the Biden campaign described to reporters as “the legislation he goes up to [Capitol Hill] immediately to get done,” outline $2tn in investments in clean energy, jobs and infrastructure that would be carried out over the four years of his first term. . .Part of Biden’s “Build Back Better” agenda, these plans are a Green New Deal in all but name. If you set aside the most attention-grabbing left-wing programs included in New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s 2019 Green New Deal resolution, like Medicare for All and a federal job guarantee, Biden’s plans broadly align with an approach advocated by the left-wing of the Democratic party.: Joe Biden has endorsed the Green New Deal in all but name (The Guardian, 07/20/2020)

“These plans are a Green New Deal in all but name,” wrote Julian Brave NoiseCat, a fellow with Data for Progress, which has helped develop Green New Deal policy ideas. . .: How Joe Biden’s Plan Could Be a Transformative Step to Addressing the Climate Crisis: Thanks to the rising influence of activists, the former vice president’s plans are finally starting to meet the challenge (Rolling Stone, 08/11/2020)

He says the same things about the 2nd Amendment - “I’m not going to take away your guns!” when his own website says exactly the opposite. Not that Joe ever reads his site, or even knows the people who produce its content.

Great catch, Jane! God bless Richard Grenell again. I really should join Twitter just to follow POTUS and Grenell. ;-)

The debate was intense! POTUS debating both Chris Wallace and Biden. LOVED hearing Trump say it himself: "I've done more in 47 months than you have done in 47 years."

It was so over when Biden screeched, "Shut up, man!"

Maybe Biden backed off his support when he realized from the context of the question that it was not, after all, a Green Nude Deal.

Yup, and when Biden repeatedly called the President of the United States a CLOWN. Oh, and a RACIST (of course!).

77 year old Biden came across as a feeble, cranky 97 year old, shouting at Trump to get off his lawn.

No. His voters know that no matter what he says in a debate, he will do what his masters tell him. Today he is not for the New Green Deal, tomorrow he may say that he has always been a supporter of it.
