Just three weeks into President Trump's second year in office, rising electricity prices are already being weaponized by desperate Democrats hoping to claw their way back to power in the November midterm elections. But any honest look at the data reveals the real culprit behind America's energy affordability crisis: the disastrous policies of the Biden regime.
Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows energy costs have continued climbing during Trump's first year back in the White House, a direct result of the infrastructure damage inflicted during four years of Biden's war on American energy. While the mainstream media rushes to blame Trump, patriots understand the reality – you can't undo decades of green energy boondoggles and regulatory strangulation overnight.
The Biden Energy Disaster Legacy
Remember, this is the same Joe Biden who shut down the Keystone XL Pipeline on Day One, declared war on American oil and gas, and funneled billions into failed solar and wind projects that couldn't keep the lights on during a mild winter storm. The chickens from Biden's climate cult policies are now coming home to roost.
Trump's "Drill, Baby, Drill" agenda is already moving full speed ahead, but rebuilding America's energy independence after Biden's sabotage takes time. The administrative state spent four years dismantling our energy infrastructure – it won't be rebuilt in four months.
"The American people aren't stupid – they know who broke our energy system and they know who's fixing it," one GOP strategist told reporters.
While Democrats salivate over the prospect of using energy prices as a political cudgel, they're forgetting one crucial detail: voters remember who put us in this mess. Their green new scam policies created this crisis, and now they want credit for solving it?
Trump's Energy Dominance Plan
The Trump-Vance administration isn't sitting idle. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin is systematically dismantling Biden's job-killing regulations, while Energy Secretary appointments focus on unleashing American energy production. The question isn't whether Trump can fix Biden's energy disaster – it's how quickly he can do it.
Do Democrats really think American families will forget who turned the world's energy superpower into a dependent nation begging other countries for oil? The 2026 midterms can't come fast enough.
