I believe, at least in my mind, they and almost all of congress are compromised. I don't think "We the people" are allowed to elect anyone who isn't compromised.

Don't try to move the goal post.
You have been proven wrong. Deal with it.
Doesn't matter what Biden did or didn't do in regards to pipe lines. You claimed our oil production is not at record highs. I proved you wrong.
When gasoline prices crashed and briefly went into negative territory during the pandemic, companies worked to turn their spigots off except for their most productive wells. That created a need to squeeze more oil out of fewer wells with less resources and fewer workers.
The length of lateral wells, or wells that are drilled horizontally after they’re drilled vertically, began to increase dramatically during the pandemic, as well. In the Permian Basin alone, the average lateral length of horizontal wells increased to more than 10,000 feet in the first nine months of 2022, compared to less than 4,000 feet in 2010 and 9,000 in 2020, according to the EIA.
The amount of fluid that operators use to flush into frack sites has also increased, allowing more product to be extracted from the same wellhead.
However, Biden administration policies are still important for the industry, according to observers. They are not providing enough certainty for the industry to continue producing at high levels in the longer term, said Meyer with API. The organization has released statements saying that changes to federal environmental review processes, pending oil and gas lease sales on federal land, and agencies’ rulemaking on the Inflation Reduction Act have made companies in the sector weary.

Great now let's do Trump!!!
1. Suggested suspending "the rules" and constitution so he could steal a free and fair election.
2. Told the Republicans to vote against their own bill, so that he could leave the border as an issue for him to run against Biden on.
3. The EU has already issued a stark warning if Trumps gets back in, as he presents a larger threat to world peace than Russia, NK and China (all countries run by dictators).
4. Even when facts are against his stance on something, he tells people to believe him (see example the 2020 election). He regularly ignores science and facts to keep his base intact.
5. Trump tried to roll back many EPA and regulatory policies that courts overturned - thank god.
6. Keeps trying to get rid of Obamacare, but has absolutely no better plan in the pipeline, despite most people wanting Obamacare (60% of American poll favourably as of 4 days ago)
I could keep going, but what's the point, MAGAs ignore facts and reality at every possible opportunity....
