Yes, Pete Buttigieg Really Said These Remarks About Electric Cars

I can’t believe they’re still peddling this failed policy. The Biden administration is once again touting electric cars. Though he used a terrible example, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg had some chutzpah to drop his sales pitch on Fox News. The former South Bend mayor equated those who don’t want to be forced to buy these terrible cars to those who railed against the increased use of cellular phones.

“I feel like it's the early 2000s, and I'm talking to some people who think we can just have landline phones forever." 

As some on social media realized, there were reasons why mobile phones were better. That doesn’t exist for electric cars, which have bled car manufacturers. Ford lost tens of thousands per car. They need constant charging, and they’re worse for the environment. Also, where do these electric car people think the power that charges their vehicles’ batteries comes from? Fossil fuels.

This administration is clueless. If there were serious people here, the rising crime spurred by hordes of criminal illegal aliens would be the first domestic priority. Alas, Joe Biden is a Democrat, so nothing will happen. He also can't remember anything.
