This piece by friend Emmet Penney — one of the sharpest conservative energy writers in the business — raises a sharp point I haven’t seen elsewhere — depressed oil prices means less drilling which means less gas production which means higher prices for the fuel that supplies the bulk of our electricity. 

Meanwhile, Trump doesn’t seem to get this and his consigliere Elon Musk is saying one thing to promote his own business while doing something totally different to supply his other business.
