As we head into the 2024 election, Donald Trump and Ohio Senator JD Vance have laid out a plan to deal with what the left loves to call “climate change.” But let’s be honest—this isn’t about saving the planet. It’s about saving American jobs and energy independence. Trump and Vance are standing up for everyday Americans, rejecting the hysteria peddled by coastal elites and their media enablers. Their message is clear: the U.S. should be the leader in energy production, not shackled by regulations designed to destroy our economy.
While the Biden administration has been laser-focused on pushing the Green New Deal agenda—crippling industries and driving energy prices through the roof—Trump and Vance have a different vision. It’s a return to the common-sense policies that made America energy independent under Trump’s first term. It’s about rolling back the disastrous regulations that have only benefited China and OPEC while the rest of us get stuck with skyrocketing utility bills.
Slashing Job-Killing Regulations
At the heart of Trump and Vance’s approach is the promise to dismantle the bureaucratic machine that has been suffocating the American energy sector. Remember, under Trump, the U.S. was not just energy independent—we were energy dominant. And how did we do that? By getting the government out of the way. Trump cut red tape, opened up oil and gas leases, and ended Obama-era restrictions that crippled coal and natural gas production.
JD Vance is no stranger to this fight, either. He’s from Ohio, a state built on the back of fossil fuels, and he understands that real Americans don’t want to trade good-paying jobs for some pie-in-the-sky windmill dream. Vance has been a vocal critic of the green energy push, which has done little more than hurt hardworking people in states like Ohio and Pennsylvania. Both he and Trump agree: the future of America’s energy is not in forcing you to buy an electric car or covering the country in solar panels. It’s in tapping into our massive oil, coal, and natural gas reserves, making sure American workers thrive, not suffer.
They’re not opposed to innovation, by the way. But what they won’t do is sacrifice the livelihoods of millions of Americans on the altar of climate extremism. Why should we put China first by slapping American energy producers with regulations that they don’t follow? Trump and Vance’s plan focuses on energy freedom, allowing our industries to grow and innovate without being strangled by government overreach.
Fossil Fuels: America’s Strength, Not a Weakness
Now, let’s talk about fossil fuels—something the left loves to demonize. For Trump and Vance, fossil fuels aren’t the enemy. They are America’s greatest asset. We are sitting on some of the largest oil and natural gas reserves in the world, and instead of using them to strengthen our economy and secure our energy future, Biden wants to close it all down in favor of windmills and solar panels that can’t even keep the lights on reliably.
Trump and Vance believe in unleashing American energy—reopening drilling on federal lands, fast-tracking pipelines, and, yes, bringing back coal, which is still a reliable and affordable source of energy for millions of Americans. Biden has already gutted our energy independence with his war on domestic production, forcing us to beg OPEC for oil and watch gas prices soar.
JD Vance has been a champion of the blue-collar worker, and he knows that Ohio’s natural gas and coal industries aren’t just part of the economy—they’re the backbone of entire communities. He’s made it clear: we should be drilling here at home and putting Americans to work in energy, not importing oil from countries that hate us. The Trump-Vance platform isn’t just about jobs and cheaper energy—it’s about national security. Energy independence means we don’t have to rely on foreign powers, period.
The Farce of the Paris Climate Agreement
Then there’s the international side of things. Let’s not forget that Trump pulled us out of the Paris Climate Agreement, one of the most lopsided deals in history. Under Biden, we’re back in this nonsense, agreeing to cut our emissions while China and India are free to pollute as they see fit. Trump and Vance know this isn’t just unfair—it’s a scam. They’ve been crystal clear: America will not be part of any deal that puts us at a disadvantage to our competitors.
While the Biden administration and its globalist allies are happy to see Americans struggle with high energy costs in the name of “climate justice,” Trump and Vance are putting America first. They understand that global climate policies are designed to weaken us while propping up other countries that don’t play by the rules. And why should we? Why should American taxpayers foot the bill for climate initiatives that do nothing to actually help us?
Climate Hysteria Is Not the Answer
Here’s the bottom line: Trump and JD Vance aren’t buying into the climate panic pushed by the left. They understand that real people are hurting right now from inflation, high energy costs, and job losses caused by the radical environmental agenda. Their plan is simple: put America first by using our vast energy resources to boost our economy, bring down costs, and make us energy independent once again.
For them, the so-called “climate crisis” is nothing more than a manufactured excuse to impose more control over our lives, strip away our freedoms, and weaken America. They believe that the future lies in empowering American workers and industries, not bowing to climate extremists who don’t understand what it means to live in the real world.
Trump and JD Vance are ready to take on the climate hysteria and put America back on top, where it belongs.
