If you want to know how we end up with bad energy policies, it’s because too many politicians believe things that aren’t true.

You can scratch the word "energy" off that...it's just all policies. We have an administration that thinks printing more money helps the economy. They think that defunding police makes things better/safer. They think that lighting federal buildings on fire is okay in one instance but waltzing into an open door of another is a crime. They think that more gun laws will prevent criminals from committing crime. Etc.

Almost literally nothing they say or do makes any rational sense whatsoever, yet here we are.

Exxon made more money than God this year. Exxon, start investing. Start paying your taxes.

What a piece of shite thing to say. I assume he said that to generate emotion from his supporters, since they will run with that and assume Exxon doesn't pay their taxes. But still, that's just going out of your way to be an a-hole, and is further evidence that he doesn't know what the frick he is doing and is just trying to create conflict.
