He may not actually qualify unless he's raped someone and or trafficked some kids. Or has his body covered in white nationalist propaganda.

"What he's saying:
"There is no climate crisis, and we're not in the midst of an energy transition either," Wright said in a video posted to LinkedIn.
Zoom in:
Wright founded Liberty " a fracking technology and oilfield services company " and is an outspoken advocate for the industry.
He notably drank fracking fluid on camera in 2019 to demonstrate its safety."

Fracking fluid may become yet another curious cult fetish for Trumpers, like koolaid for Jim Jones.
The Cabinet Nominees may have to bend the knee to King Trump in the Oval Office, and hoist a Holy Grail of... fracking fluid.
Which is all that will be left when Big Oil gets through with it.

On a purely objective basis, of course, many of Trump's new Cabinet folks look like whackjobs.
Mnuchin had to be the great role from Central Casting, though. Him and his evil blonde henchperson.

OK, let me ask, what will Pres-elect Trump's new HHS Sec nominee say about fracking?
Yea, or nay?
When there is this...
Study Links Fracking, Drinking Water Pollution, and Infant Health (2022) www.urmc.rochester.edu
... New research documents for the first time the pollution of public water supplies caused by shale gas development, commonly known as fracking, and its negative impact of infant health. These findings call for closer environmental regulation of the industry, as levels of chemicals found in drinking water often fall below regulatory thresholds. "In this study, we provide evidence that public drinking water quality has been compromised by shale gas development," said Elaine Hill, Ph.D., an associate professor with the University of Rochester Departments of Public Health Sciences, Economics and Obstetrics & Gynecology. "Our findings indicate that drilling near an infant's public water source yields poorer birth outcomes and more fracking-related contaminants in public drinking water." ...

Global Warming is killing poor people now, who cannot afford air conditioning, and within twenty years it will be so bad that entire parts of the country will be unlivable, and still these insane fools keep on electing jerks like Trump.
