    I believe that he wants us to liquify NATGAS, stick it on one of over 600 LNG tankers (of which approximately ZERO are US flagged!) sail it to Europe, DEliquify it and distribute it to keep the EU from having to rely on those nasty old Rooskies to just send it over through the very pipe that OUR administration green lit one day after being sworn-in.

    Smart, huh?
    Carbon efficient too - right?

    HOWEVER (comma!). The same administration male-chicken blocked the XL expansion on the same day because…..why, again?
