Biden says there’s no place for coal or fracking in his administration. Fortunately there won’t be a Biden administration. #DemDebate pic.twitter.com/Iog7rNoeSO

That is not going to go over well in the coal and energy states, some of which are critical swing states. Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Kentucky, here comes the job killer!
So Joe Biden just said his goal is to bankrupt coal, fracking and the fossil fuel industry and virtually every Democrat on stage agreed with him.
But yes, these Dems will be able to beat Trump in the rust belt. ???

Nowhere is the left more nuts than on climate. Biden, the "reasonable" person on stage, says "no more fossil fuels" in his presidency. Think about this, folks. No oil, gas, coal. No diesel trucks, airplanes, fighter jets, chainsaws. This the America you want? #DemDebate

This was quite a flip from 2012, when the Obama Administration was desperate to hold onto the votes in the coal states.
FLASHBACK: In 2012, Biden claimed that we "desperately need coal"https://t.co/fx7G6de4RG pic.twitter.com/xzQm9QT5jZ
