The fracking answer was your weakest point last night. The Republicans are going to seize on it. But you can work it post debate and make it a bigger positive. Already the business media is on it.
The basic position needs to be that You are not going to end Oil, economics is. Everyone is not going to be driving an EV next year, but we can see a time when everybody will. So we can try and save oil as Trump tried to save coal and fail as he did. Or we can get ahead of the economics and science and be prepared for it. That’s why you wont ban fracking, you don’t need to it will ban itself as coal is doing.
The basic premise needs to be we can deny reality as Trump and the Republicans do or get in front of it. Oilfield workers, those on the rigs in the gulf know whats coming as the miners in Kentucky and West Virginia already know you cant fight coming reality.
But once you acknowledge that reality you can use those skills and workers to shape the future to everyone’s benefit. Or you can do what Trump and the Republicans always do deny it and let China or someone else seize the future.
