Semantics. And I’m an oilman.

The oil supply is indeed infinite, but oil economics are wholly dependent on the price of oil and the cost to extract it.

There is a huge supply of oil at $200/barrel, until the drillers and oil service companies charge enough to make even that uneconomic!

Don’t equate supporting different candidates or different ideas as being rude. Seriously, do you really tell your family, friends, and co-workers that they are rude if they don’t agree with you?!

The A Team.

I think (pray) they have a plan :-)

[caww]

Warning - warning - to complainers....

[silent_jonny]

Oh Elon ... solar power won’t ever beat gasoline/diesel.

[Brown Deer]

It would be interesting...

[Reno89519]

I curious how they add it all up? And if they even can.

So happy to make it here tonight. I have nothing but glowing things to say about this event. Simple genius. Relatable down to earth people conversing about the important issues of the day in my living room. This makes them one of us. No wonder the naysayers are breaking down. This is the mug shot times a million.

If I were an undecided working stiff who never voted before but was struggling with the economy, unable to take my family out to dinner, and heard these two guys.... My whole attitude about voting and for who would change in a heartbeat.

I dunno maybe I’m off base but its what I see.

RPOTUS brings up NUCLEAR warming.

Ha!

Brilliant.

[thecodont]

I think the campaign is going to be an unorthodox surprise like 2016.

I pray so!

[Reno89519]

What I don’t get is why the EU and UK were so opposed to this discussion.

Or why they had the gall to think it was any of their business.

[caww]

Absolutely right!

[exit82]

I know Trump does, and I sincerely hope Elon is a part of it.

[stars & stripes forever]

Hmm...
Sounds like SOME FReepers on this thread. 🤔🤔🤔

[djstex]

I know right! HA!
I do it too much!
Thanks! ;)

[Jane Long]

RPOTUS set him straight, in a VERY diplomatic way.

Genius.

[JayGalt]

Elon was doing great until he started in on the parts per million cO2 and sustainable. President Trump steered him away after a bit which is good.

[bgill]

The Pacific Garbage Patches need working on.

[RoseofTexas]

WOW! Elon has accepted an invitation to be a part of his administration! Do you think this will move the needle a little?🤞

We’re almost at 90 minutes (right?) of uninterrupted conversation with the rightful President—and it’s been excellent. No wonder the left wanted to shut this down.
