Saying the quiet part aloud, he expects thanks for this punishment.<\/p>\n<p>Visiting Tokyo Monday, Biden told journalists: \u201cWhen it comes to the gas prices, we\u2019re going through an incredible transition that is taking place that, God willing, when it\u2019s over, we\u2019ll be stronger, and the world will be stronger and less reliant on fossil fuels.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Incredible!<\/p>\n<p>Biden desperately wants Americans to abandon gasoline-powered cars and adopt electric vehicles. Of course, as a weekly communicant in the Church of the Green New Deal, Biden forgets that 80% of an EV\u2019s volts stem from <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/tools\/faqs\/faq.php?id=427&amp;t=3\">disgusting natural gas<\/a> (38.3%), nasty coal (21.8%) and glow-in-the dark nuclear (18.9%).
