See idiotic comments like you make is one of the reasons intelligent people ignore YOU!
Where was you dumb comments when you supported this dumb ass act by Biden?
Today, the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) announced $635 million in grants to continue building out electric vehicle (EV) charging and alternative fueling infrastructure with funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law’s signature zero-emission refueling infrastructure programs. The grants fund 49 projects that will deploy more than 11,500 EV charging ports and hydrogen and natural gas fueling infrastructure along corridors and in communities across 27 States, four Federally Recognized Tribes, and the District of Columbia.
President Biden set a goal of building out 500,000 publicly available EV chargers by 2030 – and we are on track to achieve that goal early. As of today, there are more than 206,000 publicly available EV charging ports with 38,000 new public chargers turned on in 2024 thanks to private sector investment, and a combination of direct federal funding, federal tax incentives, and state and local funding.
New investments from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law will add more than 11,500 electric vehicle charging ports and expand hydrogen and natural gas fueling infrastructure in communities nationwide

TWO dumb ass events from this dumb plan!
1)
$7.5 Billion In Federal Funds Yield Only 8 EV Charging Stations
More than two years later, electric vehicles remain a political football.

2). Now the other dumb ass events by Biden was exemplified by this statement:
"
I GUARANTEE WE ARE GOING TO GET RID OF FOSSIL FUELS!"

Results of his "RID Fossil fuels" : Highest gas price in history..
The highest national average gas price in U.S. history was $5.02 per gallon, recorded on June 14, 2022,

But this idiot never considered that if all the cars/trucks were EVs... they would require..

If all cars and trucks in the US were electric, the electricity needed to power them would be roughly 950 billion kWh annually. This would require an increase of 20-50% in total electricity generation,
according to USAFacts. A similar calculation estimates that electrifying all road transport in the UK would increase electricity demand by 40%!
Going to 100% electric cars would increase electricity demand by around one-quarter. Moving all road transport to electric would increase it by around 40%.

So dummies like you never considered what that would mean in demand... PLUS again how would that electricity be transferred to the chargers????
Dumb people like Biden, you et.al.... never considered that when he guaranteed to "rid fossil fuels"... THAT
Fossil fuels, including coal, natural gas, and petroleum, continue to be a major source of electricity generation globally, accounting for over 60% of global electricity production. In the United States, fossil fuels generate about 60% of electricity, with natural gas being the largest single source at 43%

BUT dummies like you support riding fossil fuels... WITH WHAT!
