i said nothing about that

i said that the power outages had nothing to with dems

for the record, people are running out of gas, too

it has absolutely everything to do with dems. Our reliance on "green" bullshit that has caused the load on the grid and caused the power outages are in direct relation to their policies. If we had coal and nuclear this would have happened to a much lesser degree.

because of the extreme cold, the turbines froze up. you cannot expect them to take the time and money to build protection against something that happens every 100 years

the real problem is everyone trying to keep their houses warm during the extreme cold. I some places power usage is at 500% of normal

anyplace else could handle that because states share power. But TX is not connected to anyone else

dems have nothing to do with weather conditions, providing electrical power or infrastructure design

Incorrect. Again, had they not relied on shitty power sources like windmills and solar panels, there wouldn't BE this widespread failure.

you ain't getting it. they don't rely on them

under normal circumstances, losing all of them would not be a problem
