This will further raise oil prices and the Right will criticize Biden even more, despite clamoring for a Russian oil ban.
I voted for Biden but he is digging his own grave.
In what way?
He needs to make a better case for why another far off war in a distant place should necessitate American incurring the sacrifices he is asking them to make in the near term and combine it with a cogent explanation of why such a sacrifice is necessary given that we had a bunch of oil and energy independence under Obama and Trump, along with lower gas prices. His challenge is that the risks of climate change and "fall of democracy" seem remote and attenuated(despite apocalyptic language), while the pain of inflation and gas prices are very imminent, very tangible, and very real.
This.
Don't forget that he won the last election by a few points. It was not a landslide. People's memories are very short and they will tire of high gas prices very quickly and forget about the people of the Ukraine.

I'm hopeful people who don't have to own SUVs and trucks (for work or for living off a dirt road) will be finally forced to buy high gas mileage vehicles.

I'm a Democrat who would never vote for a Republican, but Biden just killed our solar industry and handed it to China. He extended Trump's tariffs, but made a loophole for double sided panels, so you'll see people now installing them--even though they aren't obviously necessary for residential project. There's a lot of competing interests to be sure. However, it would be wise to not be reliant on China and the rest of Asia for solar production.

Dems have ruined US ability for energy independence. This is what they have caused.
Yep. Totally self-inflicted.
We have enough oil under this country to be petroleum independent until cars and homes are powered by Mr Fusions. But we aren’t allowing it to be used.
This is all at the feet of dems and libs. Direct your anger at them. Don’t hold back.
Climate change inaction and the destruction of our natural ecosystems for profit is at the feet of Republicans. The health of our planet is more valuable than your personal wealth.

Yup. This has been the take away.

It can and will be used - IF the oil and gas companies are willing to do it in a responsible way. But instead it's clear that they instead want to dominate the airwaves with irresponsible "drill baby drill" propaganda while they seek to slash regulation and oversight and indiscriminately cut corners putting all of our other natural resources like drinking water aquifers at risk. This is all about profits, not energy security.
