April 22, 2020 HERE’S THE DEAL: Joe Biden Isn’t Being Honest With America’s Workers

Joe Biden has spent the last year making clear in no uncertain terms that he plans to obliterate oil and gas jobs, pledging to left-wing activists that he will “make sure it’s eliminated.”

“No new fracking,” Biden declared. “No more ability for the oil industry to continue to drill, period, ends.”

“We are going to get rid of fossil fuels” and “we’re going to end fossil fuels” were common refrains.

But when he was confronted this week about his radical views during a local interview in Pennsylvania, where the natural gas industry supports over 220,000 jobs, Biden told a different story:

QUESTION: “There’s a lot of work going on in natural gas in the counties in this area, and they use fracking. … If you’re elected President, would you shut down this industry?” BIDEN: “No, I wouldn’t shut down this industry… I would not shut it down, no.”

This is part of a pattern of Biden telling workers one thing and promising left-wing activists another.

“We gotta take care of those miners,” he told the Pennsylvania AFL-CIO earlier this month. “We owe them big.” But in December and January, Biden was telling crowds that those miners will need to ‘learn to code’ if he enacts his anti-coal agenda.

For years, Biden promised workers he would renegotiate NAFTA. Then when he was Vice President, he didn’t lift a finger to do it.

Biden likes to play up his Pennsylvania roots, but when he was talking with his wealthy donors last week, he told them that many blue-collar workers supporting President Trump are deplorable racists.

It’s pretty clear that American workers simply can’t trust Joe Biden to be honest with them.

With President Trump, American workers have a champion who has their back and puts them first – no matter what. They will always know where he stands.
