Biden gaslights about his plan shut down coal plants 'all across America': His apology for the remarks, if we were offended, as he put it, was pretty insulting

Less than a week from a "bloodbath" midterm for Democrats, you'd think Joe BIden would be on his best behavior as he stumps for votes across the country.

Fat chance, Fat.

Joe Biden's gaffe spout has been turned to 11, vowing as he did in California to put the coal industry out of business, just as Pennsylvania goes to the polls:

"No one is building new coal plants because they can’t rely on it. Even if they have all the coal guaranteed for the rest of the existence of the plant," Biden said.

"So it's going to become a wind generation," Biden continued. "And all they're doing is it’s going to save them a hell of a lot of money and using the same transmission line that they transmitted the coal-fired electric on, we're going to be shutting these plants down all across America and having wind and solar power."

The Fox transcription, above, is delicate. What Biden really in the video was closer to: 'We'reunna be shuttin' these plants down all across 'Murica..." in a phony bid to be folksy.

That's what people heard. Especially the "we'reunna" part.

That's quite a thing to say about energy at a time when a gallon of gas is going for $6 at the pump in California, the Strategic Petroluem Reserve has been squandered, and petrotyrants have laughed in Joe's face at his pleas to them to pump more oil to bring U.S. energy prices down to get his energy-squelching party through midterms.

It's also a self-defeating proposition even from Joe's own point of view of transitioning to green energy as a substitute for coal if he actually understood how energy works.

Wind power plants rely on coal-powered plants to create and transmit their structures, and with it, their generated energy. Without the coke products from coal, which make 70% of the steel used in those non-recyclable whirring Bird Cuisinarts, the energy obtained from the wind doesn't exist because the structures don't exist. Shut down the coal plants, and no more wind generators. And while we're at it, no more electric cars either, whose always-charging batteries frequently come courtesy of coal-fired plants.

But this is fancy academic stuff well beyond Joe Biden's understanding.

What's live crocodiles to Joe's party's midterm prospects is that in his vow to shut down coal plants across the country, he was talking about inflicting monster job losses on the coal industry which come of "shuttin' these plants down across 'Murica." He had vowed to put coal plants out of business during his 2020 basement campaign, and he was repeating that campaign promise for the coal mining communities of Pennsylvania from the palmy redoubt of Southern California, once again.

Nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing that comes out of the mouth of this administration's meat puppets is remotely connected to the truth in any way shape or form.

So, I’m wondering what he meant by can’t rely on coal powered plants even if a lifetime coal supply was available?

Well, you know, coal-fired power generation has been so expensive and unreliable for a century.

We definitely need to rely on the wind blowing, when it does, and half a day of sunlight, when there are no clouds.
