Trump’s Energy Pledge

  • Clip 1: With the Trump economic plan, we will will cut your energy prices in half within – lock it down – you can get get very angry at me if we don’t do it – but within 12 months your energy prices will be cut in half.

  • Clip 2: My plan will cut energy prices in half or more than that within 12 months of taking office.

  • Clip 3: Number one, your energy bill within 12 months will be cut in half. That’s my pledge all over the country. To farmers, that’s my pledge all over the country.

  • Clip 4: If you vote for me, I will cut your energy and electricity in half within 12 months. We’re gonna cut them down.

  • Clip 5: And under my plan we will cut energy and electricity in half within 12 months. And that means your homes too.

  • Clip 6: I will cut your energy and electricity prices in half. 50 percent. Five O, within 12 months of taking office.

  • Clip 7. My plan will cut energy prices in half within 12 months. We’re gonna have energy prices for businesses, but in my opinion maybe even more importantly for the average household by 12 months from January 20th which is the day we go into office.

  • Clip 8: I will cut the price of energy and electricity in half. Ready? 12 months from January 20, your electric bill, including cars, air conditioners, heating, everything. Your total electric bill will be fifty, five o, fifty percent less. We’re gonna cut it in half.

  • Clip 9: And I will cut energy and electricity prices in half within 12 months of taking office. Fifty percent.

  • Clip 10: The pledge that I am making now, and we’ve done this a little bit over the last month or so, we are going to bring energy down by 50 percent, five o percent, fifty percent within 12 months from January 20.

Portions of those clips are guaranteed to make some great campaign ads for the midterm elections.

Democrats only have one easy task in November. All they have to do is run against Trump.
