POTUS Donald Trump had shared a clip on Wednesday night, October 7 which showed Kamala Harris vowing that she would "absolutely" ban fracking while insisting that Joe Biden won't. Trump had taken to Twitter to share the video as the 2020 United States vice-presidential debate took place at the Kingsbury Hall in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Trump's tweet read, "Joe Biden and Kamala Harris BOTH want to BAN FRACKING." The 'Fracking' technique is a drilling technique used for retrieving gas and oil from shale rock, The Sun reports. 



 

The process includes drilling into the earth before injecting water, sand, chemicals, at high pressure into the rock in order to release the gas inside. The video clip features Harris answering a question at a CNN town hall in September 2019 where she was asked about whether she would ban the process of 'Fracking'. 

She was asked, "My family lives in Western Pennsylvania, where fracked gas wells have become a common sight. Will you commit to implementing a federal ban on fracking your first day in office?" In response to this, Harris had said, "There is no question I'm in favor of banning fracking. So, Yes."

Trump had shared the same clip after Harris had insisted that Biden "will not ban fracking" and had said, "That is a fact. That is a fact" while speaking to her opponent Vice President Mike Pence during the first live debate. 

Some social media users pointed out the hypocrisy of the contradicting statements and took to the comments section to let it be known. One such user had written, "And what about joe and Kamala saying they never said they would ban fracking or fossil fuels when they literally said that. Or when joe lies about his son NOT receiving a 3.5million from wife of the mayor of Moscow ... these are blatant lies."

Another user added, "I have never seen desperate and despotic politicians like the Dem's with their candidates Biden/Harris. Speaking and gambling with people's emotions. Videos are there where they said they'll ban FRACKING. Now they deny ever saying such. Power-Drunk Party out to destroy America!!"

"Kamala Harris was laughing all the way through even when talking about the poor death of Breonna Taylor that to me is so disrespectful and rude she doesn’t deserve to even be in the running and I have seen her say she would ban fracking so she lied in the debate," commented yet another social media user. 



 



 



 

Yet another social media user who echoed the same sentiments had chimed in and revealed, "@KamalaHarris Thank you for making up my mind to vote for TRUMP. You and Mr. Biden continue to reverse your decisions about many things (fracking, Green Deal, taxes, medicare) and it is clear that under your Leadership the USA would go down the drain."

"Then why is there endless videos that are easily searchable with both you and @JoeBiden publicly declaring that they will ban fracking and end fossil fuels? Which is it? You can’t run around saying both and expect anything but confusion. You both already promised. That is a fact," commented another user.
