We’re coming down to the final days before the election and there are a few things that the Trump team needs to pound home in ads and in every message they are putting out there — that Trump did amazing things for the economy and he will continue that, while Joe Biden will kill that with immediate new taxes and new regulations that will kill businesses and jobs. The Trump team should also be hammering away at how whether you call it the Green New Deal or Joe’s Green Deal, Biden would kill energy jobs in places like the critical state of Pennsylvania.
Vice President Mike Pence did do some of that last night at the vice presidential debate, doing a great job of bringing up how both Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) and Joe Biden have said at various points they wanted to ban fracking. He completely beat the heck out of her during the debate.
Harris lied and said that they had not said that. It was just one of the many lies she told during the evening.
Kind of funny to see Kamala Harris emphatically insisting that Joe Biden will not end fracking, when Harris said during her own run, “there's no question I'm in favor of banning fracking.”

Kamala Harris has proclaimed, “There’s no question, I’m in favor of banning fracking.”
REMINDER: A ban on fracking would eliminate 19 MILLION jobs across the country between 2021–2025, while reducing our GDP by $7.1 TRILLION.#VPDebatepic.twitter.com/9xlnmiVZtJ

Biden even said he wanted to get rid of all fossil fuels. Check the supercut of some of his comments. Biden, of course, lied about that during his debate.

There were so many contradictory comments even the liberal media had to acknowledge what she was saying wasn’t true, although they cut them a break and called Biden’s position “evolving” and her lie “inconclusive.”
When it comes to the issue of fracking, Kamala Harris wasn’t telling the truth on the debate stage.

Bottom line, as Mike Pence pointed out, she’s the co-sponsor of the Green New Deal and Biden even endorses it on his website despite denying it during his debate. They’re saying now whatever they need to say to win Pennsylvania and energy states. But it isn’t what they have been pushing for months and it isn’t what they would do if they were ever put in power.
The brazenness of the lie was just something else and even the president called her out on it.
I will give her this. Kamala Harris lies with gusto. Never supported a fracking ban. Never supported the Green New Deal. None of it is true.

Kamala Harris’ proved why a Biden/Harris administration would be a disaster:
*lied about raising taxes
*lied about fracking
*refused to answer about fundamentally transforming SCOTUS#VPDebate— Ronna McDaniel (@GOPChairwoman) October 8, 2020
In case you’re watching Senator Harris lie about fracking right now, both she and VP Biden are on record, on video and will absolutely ban fracking. They seek to end coal and all fossil fuels. #VPDebate https://t.co/2cqY54PfpL

Joe Biden claimed he "never told" far-left activists he will get rid of fracking.
That's a lie. Roll the tape! #VPDebate pic.twitter.com/BAny9SvsDh
