This just in: Kamala Harris can’t be trusted.
OK, this isn’t anything new. Her positions change with every new fall breeze; she has no principles, only expediency, and will say whatever a particular audience wants to hear. This has become apparent to much of the electorate, including, according to a new report on Friday on Pennsylvania energy workers.
Policy flip-flops have put Vice President Kamala Harris in the hot seat in the key battleground state of Pennsylvania, with energy workers telling Fox News that “nobody believes” her change of heart on fracking.
“I believe she’s out there saying whatever she can to make people try to swing her way so that she can try to get the presidency,” Chad Zboran, a Pennsylvania-based technical field trainer, told “Fox & Friends” co-host Lawrence Jones during a segment that aired Thursday.
Jones paid a visit to Deep Well Services in the Keystone State to hear where fracking country believes she truly stands.
Fracking is indeed at the heart of the discussion; Kamala Harris has flip-flopped on this issue like a gaffed tuna.
“The sentiment around this whole region is nobody believes that [she will not ban fracking],” Deep Well Services Senior Vice President John Sabo told Jones during the visit.
Mark Marmo, CEO of Deep Well Services, bluntly said, “I don’t believe anybody in that [Biden] administration.”
This is certainly a fair assessment; the Harris/Biden administration (let’s be honest, befuddled old Joe hasn’t been in charge of anything for quite some time now) has been as hostile to the energy sector more than any presidential administration since, well, Barack Obama. The Keystone State’s energy workers are perfectly justified in mistrusting Kamala Harris.

First There Was the Teamsters Poll, Now There Are Even More Union Members for Trump
Energy industry workers have chimed in on Fox Business’s live coverage:
Here’s why this matters. Neither presidential ticket, if current polling trends are maintained, can win November’s election without Pennsylvania. The path to 270 Electoral College votes is nearly impossible for Trump/Vance without Pennsylvania, while for Harris/Walz it is merely a lot more difficult. On election night, once Pennsylvania is called, we’ll have about a 95 percent certainty as to who will be sitting at the Resolute Desk in 2025.
And that’s going to be harder without the votes of Pennsylvania’s energy workers. Whether that sector is enough to outweigh the deep blue pit of Philadelphia remains to be seen. But we do know this: A look at the RealClearPolitics averages for the Pennsylvania presidential vote has Kamala Harris holding a narrow, one-point lead – within the margin of error for most polls. But the last couple of polls, you will note, have Trump starting to take the lead back.
Cross your fingers, and if you’re in Pennsylvania, vote. Vote as though your livelihood depends on it – because it very well might.
