I wondered how long it would take him to yammer about the grid.
Actually, the current reserve estimate is more like 6 GW, but that is neither here nor there.
What IS important to note (and what greentarded, pinwheel-loving Clayton fails to mention) is that as I write this, over SIXTY PERCENT of power generation is coming from beautiful, clean natural gas.
If we had listened to low-IQ clowns who want to ban fossil fuels by 2030, we’d all be sitting in the dark right now, freezing to death.
That’s because even if you had 100x more solar panels and pinwheels than we have right now, they would STILL be useless because the sun isn’t out and the wind isn’t blowing.
Moron.
It’s the SAME EXACT CYCLE over and over: idiots like Clayton Tucker push a terrible idea, then whine when the terrible idea results in shitty outcomes.
That’s literally ALL he does:
He wants open borders, then bitches about low wages. He wants “good jobs for Americans” but bitches about the tariffs necessary to onshore manufacturing again. He wants the government to provide “free stuff” for everyone, then bitches about the inflation that results from it. He wants idiotic solar and wind, then bitches that power bills are too high and bitches when the power reserve is low due to no wind or sun.
He’s a simpleton and a child. If I were his Dad I’d disown him tomorrow and kick his ass out of the house. Total clown.
** UPDATE ** – at 7am this morning (the hour that Clayton Tucker was panicking about) the reserves were actually over 16 GW!! So much for being a panican.
