It is Jimmy Carter, too, right? It is not only the third term of Obama, but it is the second term of Jimmy Carter. We lived through that energy crisis, and we were told then that we were running out of fuel. But that was yet another lie, and, of course, now we don't have any jobs, right? Meanwhile, we closed down the Keystone pipeline. How many jobs was that? And we are told that you can go make solar panels. It is not America First; it is China first. Those solar panels, what they call rare-earth minerals, that is another fallacy. They are not rare. They are only rare in the United States because we are not allowed to get them because we have laws that preclude us from going to get them that makes them cost-ineffective, so we have to import them from China or other places. China does well. This is a China first policy, not an America First policy. This is coming from this administration and other administrations or acolytes to those policies.
