Trump dumps on electric tanks at rally

During a campaign event at Trendsetter Engineering, Inc. in Houston, Texas on Thursday, Donald Trump seemed to think it was hilarious that there's been a push for electric military tanks and boats. A horror — in his eyes, apparently — that he pins on Biden.

"With your vote, we will fire crooked Joe Biden. And we will reclaim America's destiny as the greatest energy superpower on the face of the Earth," Trump said to a cheering crowd. "Perhaps worst of all, Biden's insane. Mandates on so much. Including mandates on this [pantomimes giving himself a shot in the arm]. There's a move on now . . . all boats have to go electric. Army tanks have to go electric." To this, someone let out a furious-sounding noise.
