'Self-Inflicted Wound': Is Biden About To Hand Trump Campaign A Major Political Gift?
President Joe Biden's latest energy decision may ultimately prove to be a major boon for former President Donald Trump and his bid to return to the White House.

President Joe Biden’s latest energy policy decision may ultimately prove to be a major boon for former President Donald Trump and his bid to return to the White House.
The Biden administration is expected to announce formally on Friday that it is delaying its final determination on whether to approve Calcasieu Pass 2 (CP2), a massive liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal in Louisiana. The delay is a clear sign that the administration is thinking about effectively killing the project, and it appears that the Trump campaign will take advantage of the new opportunity to slam Biden’s energy agenda while contrasting it with Trump’s record on the issue.
Biden is under heavy pressure from the environmentalist left to kill CP2 and other proposed LNG export terminals, especially after his administration decided to allow ConocoPhillips to proceed with the Willow Project in Alaska over the vehement opposition of activist groups. The Willow Decision was a rare victory for fossil fuel interests during Biden’s first term, which has seen the federal government issue the most restrictive offshore oil and gas leasing schedule in American history and take millions of acres of federal land off the table for drilling.
Trump, meanwhile, is promising a simple energy strategy if he returns to the Oval Office: “Drill, baby, drill,” as he said after winning the Iowa caucus.

White House officials reportedly met with several activists, including a 25-year old TikTok influencer and members of the confrontational organization known as Climate Defiance, ahead of its decision to delay a final determination on CP2.
A recent poll found that most voters who are likely to participate in the 2024 election in eight swing states do not believe that climate change is the most serious issue facing the nation today, while a majority of respondents identified the economy as the most or second-most important issue. Vice President Kamala Harris recently estimated that the administration has spent about $1 trillion on its massive green energy and climate agenda.
The Biden campaign did not respond immediately to a request for comment.
Commentary:
Biden pledged to make up the LNG shipments in Europe that were lost due to the Russia-Ukraine war and resulting sanctions.
Now the Biden Administration is cutting off those LNG supplies, which will force Europe to either freeze or defy Russian sanctions and buy more Russian Natural Gas.
IMO, Republicans are being gifted a bulletproof platform with which to crush the Democrats in November, and to do so without even once mentioning inflation or gas prices. Voters who truly care about pocketbook issues will cast their votes without any motivation from either of the political parties. Voters who might otherwise stay home or vote for the Democrats due to casual social and cultural pressure can only be persuaded to back Trump if the GOP hammers the heartstring issues. And Trump will do just that!
Obviously, Biden is doing what his handlers tell him to do. What his handlers are telling him to do will wreck the country. That is intentional.
Apparently, the 2024 electiom is not a concern for the cabal that is directing the Biden handlers. They clearly believe they can fix the "elections". Maybe they are wrong about that. We will find out in November.
The goal of the cabal is unrestrained power forever. That requires destruction of a prosperous middle class that might oppose the rulers. It requires the creation of an impoverished peasantry class which depends on favors from the rulers in order to survive.
This program is well underway.
